TikTok is one of the best apps out there right now. But did you know that you can make your life easier on the app in just a matter of seconds? Here are a few tips to help you use the app easier.
Make your account private
If you want to keep your profile private, then this feature is what you need. When you enable the private account, only the users you approve will be able to watch your videos and follow you. However, this rule will not apply to those existing contacts.
In order to make your profile private, open TikTok, then go to the profile button that’s placed at the bottom right corner, then go to the More button that’s placed at the top right corner. From there, go to privacy and safety, and turn the switch for the Private Account option.
Make sure no one downloads your videos
Everyone can download your TikTok videos. But not everyone is happy with this feature. Fortunately, TikTok comes with another feature that does not allow users to download your videos.
Open TikTok, then go to the profile button that’s placed at the bottom right corner, then go to the More button that’s placed at the top right corner. From there, go to privacy and safety. Go to Safety and press on Allow your videos to be downloaded. You need to choose the Off option.
Hide the comments that contain a certain keyword
The internet is full of amazing things, but it’s also full of trolls. And they leave a lot of comments, most of them abusive. There’s a comment filter that you can use. You can hide the comments that contain a certain keyword.
Open TikTok, then go to the profile button that’s placed at the bottom right corner, then go to the More button that’s placed at the top right corner. From there, go to privacy and safety. Go to the Comment filters. Turn on the toggle for Filter Keyword and add the keywords.
Only your friends are allowed to react to your videos
If you get a lot of reactions – the worst kind – and you want them to stop, there’s a feature that allows you to only allow your friends to react to your content.
Open TikTok, then go to the profile button that’s placed at the bottom right corner, then go to the More button that’s placed at the top right corner. From there, go to privacy and safety. In the Safety tab, press on Who can React to your videos and choose Friends.
Make your life easier with the Data Saver
If you want to be more careful with your data, you may want to take into account this piece of advice. TikTok has a data saver that cuts cellular data consumption. This means that videos will be at a lower resolution, and it might take a few seconds to load. But things will get back to normal as soon as you connect your device to the Wi-Fi.
Open TikTok, then go to the profile button that’s placed at the bottom right corner, then go to the More button that’s placed at the top right corner. From there, go to Data Saver, and turn on the switch.
Save your favorite videos
You can create a collection with all of your favorite videos. You may want to watch a video more than once, so, naturally, you want to save them and make your own collection. Or, if you want to watch a video, but you’d rather do it at home, you can also save it. All you need to do is to touch and hold on to it, and then press on Save Video.
