Blocking someone

Blocking someone on TikTok means you can't view each other's posts, find each other's profiles in search, or exchange direct messages. You may still see them in multi-host LIVE, Duets posted by others, or shared group chats. People you've blocked won't be notified when you block them, and any prior connection with them will be removed. If you believe someone on TikTok violates our Community Guidelines, please report it to us.To block someone: 1. In the TikTok app, go to the person's profile. 2. Tap the Share button at the top. 3. Tap Block at the bottom, then tap Block again to confirm.To block multiple people: 1. In the TikTok app, go to one of your posts.2. Tap the Comments button.3. Press and hold the comment, then select Manage multiple comments, or tap the Filters button at the top. 4. Select the comments from accounts you want to block, then tap More at the bottom. 5. Tap Block accounts.6. Tap Block to confirm.

After you block someone on TikTok, you can find your blocked list in your settings. If you are a parent or guardian, you can view all your teen's blocked accounts on their TikTok profile through Family Pairing.
