How to hide reposts on TikTok

Quick answerChecked October 2026

TikTok doesn't have a setting that hides only your reposts. If your account is public, anyone can see your Reposts tab. You can make your whole account private, so only followers see them, or remove the reposts you don't want seen, one by one or all at once with Detok.

How to hide reposts on TikTok: your two real options

Since TikTok doesn’t offer a hide switch for reposts, there are two things that work.

Option 1: make your account private

This hides your Reposts tab from everyone who doesn’t follow you. It also hides your videos and the rest of your profile from them.

Privacy settings with the Private account switch
  1. Go to your Profile.
  2. Tap the menu button in the top corner.
  3. Tap Settings and privacy.
  4. Tap Privacy.
  5. Turn on Private account.

Option 2: remove the reposts you don’t want seen

Removing a repost is the only way to hide it from everyone, followers included. For a handful, follow our guide to undo a repost. For all of them, Detok clears your whole Reposts tab at once and checks each one is gone.

Troubleshooting

You went private, but someone can still see your reposts

They follow you. Private accounts still show reposts to approved followers. Remove them as a follower, or block them if you don’t want any contact.

You need to stay public

Creators and businesses often can’t go private. In that case, removing reposts is the only way to keep them off your profile. Check what’s in your Reposts tab first so you know what you’re dealing with.

Removed reposts still show on your profile

Refresh your profile. If a video is still in the Reposts tab, the removal didn’t go through. Remove it again.

Can I hide my reposts on TikTok?

Not on their own. TikTok has no setting that hides the Reposts tab while keeping the rest of your profile public. Your choices are a private account or removing the reposts.

How do I make my reposts private?

Switch your whole account to private. Then only people you've approved as followers can see your reposts. There's no way to make reposts private while your videos stay public.

How do I turn off reposts?

There's no switch that turns reposting off for your account. Reposts only happen when you tap Repost, so the fix for accidental reposts is to undo them, and to check the Share menu before tapping.

Can I hide my reposts from one person?

Not individually. If someone shouldn't see your reposts at all, you can block them, or, on a private account, remove them as a follower.

Does going private hide reposts I made before?

Yes, from anyone who doesn't follow you. Your existing followers can still see all of them.
