Just like reposting on Instagram or retweeting on Twitter, TikTok allows users to share content from other users to their followers through a feature known as 'Reposting'. A reposted video will not make its appearance on the user's profile, but it will show up on their followers' 'For You' page. Of course, credit is given to the original creator of the video in question.
For users who want to repost content without necessarily duetting or using other's content, the process is fairly straightforward. Just watch the video, tap on the share button largely characterized by the familiar 'arrow' symbol, and finally select the repost option. It is that simple to share an interesting video with all your followers!
TikTok's watch history can come in pretty handy when you are looking to repost a video that you previously came across. This feature, although functionally dissimilar to Instagram's interaction history, effectively allows users to scroll through their past views to find that perfect video to repost.
Removing or 'unreposting' a video on TikTok is just as simple as the reposting process. For all users who find themselves having hit the repost button accidentally because of its proximity to other functions on the share menu, worry not! The process to unrepost the video involves merely visiting the page of the video, clicking on the share menu icon, and finally hitting the 'Remove Repost' button. Once you confirm your choice, the repost is gone! However, remember that the longer you take to undo your repost, the higher the likelihood of someone among your followers having already seen it.
In case you have multiple reposts and are wondering where to find them, just go to your TikTok profile. There you will find a 'Reposts' section that lists all your reposts. Simply click on the repost icon or text, open the video you wish to remove and tap on the share icon. Finally, to remove the repost, click on 'Remove Repost'. Following these steps ensures the smooth removal of reposted videos from TikTok.
While reposting trendy videos can increase your engagement and number of followers on TikTok, it is essential to avoid over-reliance on reposted content. Creating your original trendy TikTok videos is always a better choice. Additionally, it's also crucial to be conscientious online. Accidentally keeping irrelevant reposts in your account can impact your followers' interest and your overall engagement. So learn how to remove these reposts when necessary.
For all TikTok enthusiasts who wish to broaden their knowledge on using the app effectively, several guides are available. These range from how to go live, find contacts, use stories, duet, stitch and even optimize posting times for improved engagement.
