1. How to See Someone's Reposts on TikTok Mobile (iPhone & Android)
If you have the official TikTok app installed and are signed into your account, you can locate a user's reposted videos in three quick taps:
Step 1: Open the user's TikTok profile
Search for their username via the magnifying glass search bar, or tap their avatar from the "For You" page or comment section.
Step 2: Locate the Repost icon tab
Directly beneath their profile bio, follower count, and "Follow" button, you will notice an icon navigation bar. Look for the two interlocking arrows forming a square/loop (the repost symbol), positioned right next to the video grid icon.
Step 3: Browse their chronological repost feed
Tap that tab to load every video the user has reposted. Videos are ordered by repost recency, displaying the original creator's thumbnail and sound.
2. How to See Someone's Reposts on TikTok PC & Mac Desktop
Many users notice a frustrating glitch when visiting TikTok on a desktop browser: the Repost tab is missing entirely.
On the official tiktok.com desktop site, TikTok does not render the reposts tab for visitors who are logged out. Even if you log in, desktop repost scrolling is frequently restricted or buggy.
To view reposts smoothly on your computer, the most reliable method is using ViewTikTok's specialized web interface:
No app or mobile phone needed
Works on any modern browser including Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari on Windows, macOS, and Chromebooks.
Full video playback & downloads
Watch full clips in original resolution and save them without watermarks in MP4 format.
3. How to See Reposts Without an Account or Logging In
If you don't have a TikTok account or prefer not to log into your personal profile, follow these steps:
1. Head over to the TikTok Repost Viewer
Our free tool doesn't require any sign-up, password, or third-party extension.
2. Enter their TikTok username
Type their username (e.g.,
charlidamelio) and press Enter or tap Search.3. Browse and enjoy
All public reposted videos will load instantly with clear creator attribution, play counts, and direct links to the original posts.
4. Does TikTok Tell Someone When You Look at Their Reposts?
The short answer is No.
Unlike 24-hour TikTok Stories (which maintain a viewer list for accounts with Profile View History enabled), TikTok does not track or notify creators when you view their repost feed.
Furthermore, when browsing through ViewTikTok, requests originate from our secure servers. Your device, IP address, and identity are never exposed to TikTok or the account owner.
5. Why Won't Someone's Reposts Show Up?
If you followed the steps above and the repost tab is still missing or showing 0 items, here is why:
- Private Account: If the target account is set to Private, only confirmed followers can view their videos and reposts.
- Privacy Setting ("Only Me"): TikTok allows users to hide their reposts from everyone under Privacy Settings.
- No Reposts Yet: If an account has never reposted a video (or un-reposted all past clips), the tab stays hidden until new activity occurs.
