How to Update Your TikTok ID

. If you’re looking to change your TikTok username or update your TikTok ID, it’s a simple process, but there are a few guidelines and steps to keep in mind. Below is a guide on how to update your TikTok ID.

Steps to Update Your TikTok ID:

1. Open the TikTok App
   First, launch the TikTok app on your phone and log in to your account.
2. Go to Your Profile
   Once you’re logged in, tap on the “Profile” tab, which is represented by a “Person” icon at the bottom right corner of your screen.
3. Edit Your Profile
   On your profile page, you will see a button labeled “Edit profile.” Tap this to enter the editing options.

1. Change Your Username
   Within the profile editing screen, tap on the “Username” field. Here, you can type in a new username (or ID). Keep in mind that TikTok usernames must:
   • Be between 2 to 24 characters long.
   • Only include letters, numbers, underscores, and periods.
   • Be unique, meaning no one else can have the same username as you.
2. Check for Availability
   As you type, TikTok will check whether your desired username is available. If it’s already taken, you’ll be prompted to choose another one.
3. Save Your Changes
   Once you’ve chosen an available username, tap on the “Save” button to update your TikTok ID.

Things to Keep in Mind:

• Username Changes are Limited: You can only change your TikTok username once every 30 days. So, choose wisely before making a change.
• Profile Visibility: Changing your username won’t affect the visibility of your videos, but your followers may have difficulty finding you if they search by your old username.
• Profile URL: When you change your TikTok username, your profile URL will also change. So, if you’ve shared your profile link elsewhere, remember to update it.
• Avoid Inappropriate Names: TikTok has guidelines that prohibit the use of offensive or inappropriate usernames. Any violation of these rules may result in your account being suspended.

 

 

Changing Display Name:

If you don’t want to change your username but simply want to update how your name appears on your profile, you can change your display name.

1. In the Edit Profile section, you can enter a new display name.
2. Your display name can be up to 30 characters long and can include spaces, emojis, and other special characters.
3. Unlike the username, the display name can be updated as many times as you
