Being able to remove a repost on TikTok is an important skill for any user of the platform. Reposting is a great way to share content you enjoy, but sometimes mistakes happen and you may repost something inappropriate or that you later regret sharing.
Having the ability to delete a report allows you to maintain control over your profile and what content you are spreading on your page. It gives you the power to quickly undo an action rather than having regrettable posts stay public on your profile.
How to Delete a Repost on TikTok
Deleting a repost on TikTok only takes a few simple steps. The process works the same whether you are on an iOS or Android device:
- Open the TikTok app and navigate to the video post page that contains the repost you want to remove.
- Tap on the share arrow icon located in the bottom right corner of the post.
- Tap on the “Remove repost” option.
- A confirmation prompt will appear asking if you want to remove the repost. Tap “Remove” to confirm.
And just like that, your repost will be deleted. It is an easy process that can be completed in under a minute. The key is tapping the share icon on your actual repost, rather than going to the original video.
Note – if you tap “remove” on the original video rather than your repost, it will simply unlike the video rather than delete your share. So be sure to navigate to your repost from your profile before attempting to remove it.
With this simple, step-by-step guide you can swiftly remove any regrettable or problematic reposts.
