How to untag yourself from spam TikTok videos

Untagging yourself from a TikTok video may seem like a daunting task, especially if you have to do it frequently. However, with a few simple steps, you can easily remove those unwanted tags and regain control over your TikTok experience. In this guide, we will walk you through the process of untagging yourself and also show you how to prevent being tagged in the first place. So let's get started!

Step 1: Open TikTok and Access Activities

To begin, open the TikTok app on your device and tap on the Inbox icon located at the bottom of the screen. This will take you to your Inbox menu.

Step 2: Select Activities

Within your Inbox menu, look for the option labeled "Activities" and tap on it. This will allow you to view all recent activities related to your account.

Step 3: Locate and Open the Tagged Video

Scroll through the list of activities until you find the video in which you were tagged. Once you've found it, tap on that particular video to open it.

Step 4: Remove Tag

Upon opening the tagged video, locate the tag icon next to the uploader's username. Tap on this tag icon, which will bring up a tag menu.

Step 5: Remove Tag or Add Back (optional)

In the tag menu, select the "Remove tag" button to eliminate your name from being associated with that video. If you change your mind later on, there is an option to tap the "Add back" button.
