Tips

Do you want to see who shared your TikTok videos? While you can't see which TikTok users shared your videos, you can see how many times your TikTok has been shared. You can do this by looking at each individual video, or you can check your Analytics. TikTok Analytics also provides other helpful insights for tracking your views, followers, and engagement rate. This wikiHow will show you how to view your TikTok analytics and share other TikTok videos on your iPhone, Android, or other mobile device.

Go to your profile and tap one of your videos. Find the number of shares at the bottom of the screen, next to the arrow.
To check full Analytics, go to Profile and tap the three lines. Tap Creator tools, Analytics, then Content to view your data.
