TikTok allows users to set their accounts to “Private” in order to prevent strangers from following them or watching their videos. When a user has a private TikTok account, non-followers won’t be able to view their videos, and the user will be able to approve or deny anyone who requests to follow their account.
Our guide will show you how to make your account private in the TikTok mobile application.
