How to Repost a Video on TikTok

Share another creator’s video with your friends and community using TikTok’s Repost action.

⚡Short answer

Open the video, tap Share, then tap Repost. TikTok applies the repost immediately.

Reposting does not create a new copy of the video. TikTok labels the original video as reposted and may show it to your friends and community.

Follow the steps

  1. Open the video

    Find the video you want to share and open it.
