How to View Profiles on TikTok Anonymously

TikTok Unlike Instagram or many other social media platforms, surreptitiously checking others can be detected.For example, in TikTok , most users can see that you just viewed their profile.

This might make you wary of viewing other users' TikTok profiles.Still, there are ways to surreptitiously view other users' TikTok profiles.Want to view your TikTok profile without being notified by the app?Try the methods in this guide.

1. Close profile view history

If you want to know who has viewed your profile on TikTok, you can select View Profile View History.It will show who viewed your profile in the past 30 days.However, the feature is only available to users who are 16 and older and have fewer than 5000 followers on the app.

Now, if you turn off profile viewing history, you won't know who viewed your profile.Also, if you view another user's profile, you won't appear in their profile viewing history.So they won't notice that you checked their profile.

You can disable your profile viewing history on TikTok in two ways.

The first method is through profile settings.Follow the steps below:

1. Open the TikTok app and tap the "Profile" button in the lower right corner.

2. Tap the three-line icon, then tap "Settings and Privacy".

3. From the menu options, select "Privacy".

4. Scroll down to "Profile View".

5. Turn off the profile view history.

There is another way to disable profile viewing history on TikTok:

1. Open the TikTok app and tap the "Profile" button in the lower right corner.

2. Next to the three-line button, you will see a footprint icon.click it. (If someone has viewed your profile recently, you'll see their profile photo instead of the footprint icon and corresponding view count).

3. Tap the gear icon in the upper right corner of the screen.

4. Then close the profile view history.

Once you're done, you can unobtrusively view other users' TikTok profiles.You can turn profile viewing on or off at will.However, if you secretly view a user's profile and then (before the 30-day window closes) turn profile viewing back on, you will reappear in their profile viewing history.

2. Browse TikTok as a guest

Now, if you think sacrificing anonymity for the ability to know who's viewing your profile history is too much of a price, you can also try browsing TikTok as a guest. TikTok still allows you to enjoy the great content it has to offer without forcing you to create an account or log in.

Therefore, you can log out of your TikTok account.To do this, go to your profile, click the three-line icon, and select "Settings and Privacy."Scroll down the options and tap Logout.The downside of logging out of your account on the TikTok mobile app is that you may lose all your saved drafts.

Alternatively, visit TikTok.com in your browser and search for user profiles.When using TikTok on the web, you don't need to log into your account, but interact with content as a guest.

Here's what you can do on TikTok as a guest.You can watch the video.However, you will not be listed as one of the users who watched the creator's TikTok video.You can also view other users' TikTok profiles without appearing in their profile viewing history.

However, as a guest, there are certain things you cannot do.You can't like, comment or save videos as favourites.You also can't post videos of yourself or send direct messages.

3. Use a different account

A Burner account is an account that you set up under an alias so that no one knows it belongs to you.It's as easy as creating a second TikTok account, no need to attach your personal details.

There are many reasons why you should keep a private profile on social media.On TikTok, for example, with a Burner account, you can view other users' profiles without knowing it's you.

However, you should be careful using this cloak of anonymity.You should not stalk, bully or harass others online.

Define your experience on TikTok

You may not want your name to appear in other users' profile viewing history for a number of reasons.But whenever you want to stay independent, just use any of the methods we've outlined and you're good to go.
