Blocking Haters and Trolls

TikTok, with its massive user base of one billion users per month, unfortunately attracts its fair share of haters and trolls. But don't worry, there is a way to cut out the negativity and take control of your social media experience.

Blocking on Social Media

Blocking is a power that every social media platform gives its users. It allows you to limit your exposure to unwanted interactions and create a safer online environment for yourself.

Blocking People on TikTok

If you want to block someone on TikTok, here's how:

1. Go to the person's profile.
2. Tap the three-dot icon in the top right.
3. Select "Block" and follow the steps in the app.

Bulk Blocking on TikTok

If you need to block multiple accounts at once, TikTok has a feature for that too:

1. Long-press on a comment or tap the pencil icon in the upper left corner.
2. Choose "Manage multiple comments".
3. Select up to 100 comments.
4. Tap "More".
5. Tap "Block accounts".

With this bulk block feature, you can block up to 100 accounts at a time.

Blocking Without Notifying

Yes, you can block someone on TikTok without them knowing. Just like other social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, TikTok doesn't send notifications to the blocked person.

Effect of Blocking on TikTok

When you block someone on TikTok, the platform takes several actions:

• Disables them from viewing your videos
• Disables them from engaging with you through direct messages, comments, follows, or likes
• Adds their account to your blocked list

Chat History Privacy

If you block someone on TikTok, they won't have access to your chat history. All of your messages will be inaccessible to them until you unblock them.

Unblocking on TikTok

If you choose to unblock someone on TikTok, follow these steps:

1. Go to the person's profile.
2. Tap the three-dot icon in the top right.
3. Select "Unblock" and follow the steps in the app.
