TikTok privacy and settings
Choose who sees your TikTok post, mark brand or paid posts, and fix posts that went out as private.
Updated
TikTok asks you a few things before each post. You set them in the post editor.
Choose who can see it
- In the post editor, open More options, then TikTok options.
- Under Who can see this post, choose from the options TikTok allows for your account.
- Turn Allow comments on or off. For videos, also set Allow duets and Allow stitches.
- Tick AI-generated content if AI made the post. TikTok then adds a label.
Mark brand or paid posts
Turn on Disclose post content if the post promotes something.
- Your brand: you promote your own business. TikTok labels it Promotional content.
- Branded content: someone paid you or gave you something. TikTok labels it Paid partnership.
Branded content can't be set to Only me.
My post went out as private
History may say Published privately. That means TikTok posted it, but only you can see it.
- Open the post in the TikTok app.
- Tap the … button, then Privacy settings.
- If TikTok allows it, change who can see it to Everyone.
TikTok may limit this while Wahlu's app review is still open. If you cannot change it, post through TikTok itself.
TikTok says Wahlu is still in review
TikTok checks every app that posts for you. Until TikTok finishes checking Wahlu, it limits where Wahlu can post. Some posts may fail, or go out as Only me.
This isn't a problem with your account. You don't need to change anything. Email us if a post you need fails, and we will help.
Other TikTok tips
- Check you're signed in to the right TikTok account before you connect it.
- TikTok limits how many posts you make in a day. If you hit the limit, wait and try later.
- The longest video you can post depends on your TikTok account. Wahlu checks the limit TikTok returns.
Questions
- Can Wahlu send a TikTok to my drafts instead?
- No. Wahlu posts straight to your TikTok profile. To keep a post hidden, choose Only me.
- Why can't I pick Only me?
- Branded content can't be private. Turn off Branded content, or pick another option.
