How To Unfollow on TikTok: Step-By-Step Instructions

Now that you know why you might want to unfollow someone on TikTok, let’s go over the steps to do so.

Contents

Open the TikTok app and log in to your account.
Go to the profile of the user you want to unfollow. You can do this by either searching for their username or scrolling through your feed until you see their video.

Once you’re on their profile, you’ll see a “Following” button with a checkmark next to it. Click on it.
Click on “Unfollow.”
A confirmation dialog box will appear, asking if you want to unfollow the user. Click on “Unfollow” again to confirm your decision.

Congratulations! You’ve successfully unfollowed someone on TikTok. If the users you unfollow are also unfollowing you, you can buy TikTok followers to avoid this situation.

Things to Keep in Mind About Unfollow Someone on TikTok

Unfollowing someone will remove their videos from your feed unless they appear in recommendations. This means that while their content won’t show up directly in your feed anymore, you might still see their videos if TikTok’s algorithm deems them relevant to your interests. TikTok does not notify users when they are unfollowed, so they won’t receive any alerts or messages about it. This allows you to manage your following list discreetly without worrying about offending anyone. If you change your mind at any point, you can always follow them again by visiting their profile and tapping the Follow button once more. Additionally, re-following an account will bring their content back into your feed as usual, allowing you to re-engage with their posts just as before.
