TikTok is one of the most popular social media apps in the world, with millions of new accounts created every month. The company continues to add new features to the platform to keep it interesting for consumers.
However, not every new feature is equally loved by users. The platform recently brought back one of its old features, which has created a frenzy among its userbase.
The optional feature lets users check who has viewed their account in the last 30 days, and many are not fans of it.
TikTok brings back the profile viewer history feature
The feature was available up until early 2021 before getting removed for unknown reasons. It has made a comeback with a few tweaks and is currently available to only a few users.
The current version of the feature is optional and lets you opt out if wanted. Users can track their audience and check if their videos are reaching the target demographic. Here are the steps to activate the feature for interested readers:
- Click and open the profile icon in the bottom right-hand corner
- Then click on the menu icon in the top right-hand corner
- Click on the eye symbol
- Select the "turn on profile view history" option.
After turning on the option, one can check who visited their profile, and the viewer ID will be on the list for 30 days. However, the feature has a few limitations. Others who visit your account should also have the same option turned on to show up on the viewers' list.
Users are not fans of the feature
TikTokers are not fans of the feature, and many claimed that they would keep the option switched off on their account. Some users even joked about deleting their accounts from the platform.
The platform has strict guidelines against harmful and adult content. This feature adds safety to accounts from questionable viewers and makes the platform safer for minors.
The feature being optional also gives freedom to the users who would like to stay anonymous. However, it might take a few more updates for the feature to be available on all the devices.
