How To Switch Accounts on TikTok

TikTok has experienced immense growth, with millions of active users frequenting the platform daily.

The platform gives content creators the opportunity to display their video content regardless of the niche.

However, you might be multi-talented and want different accounts dedicated to other genres.

It’s possible to have multiple accounts on TikTok, and you can easily switch between them.

So, how can you switch between your TikTok accounts?

However, TikTok is particular about having one account per person on the platform. You’ll have to provide an alternative means of identification that differs from the one you used with your first account.

This article will review the process of adding a new TikTok account to the existing one and the two methods involved in switching between accounts.

How Do You Create Multiple Accounts on TikTok?

There are various options available when creating an account with TikTok.

You can sign up with your phone number, email, Twitter account, Facebook account, Google account, or Apple account.

If you’re creating another account on the app, you must use an option different from the one you formerly used.

You can add another account to your TikTok by signing up from your existing account.

The steps for doing so are listed below:

1. Launch the TikTok application.
2. Tap on the “Profile” tab at the bottom right of the navigation bar.
3. On your profile page, you’ll see your existing account name with a drop-down menu icon on top of the page.
4. Tap on the drop-down menu icon.
5. Tap on “Add account.”

This will take you to a page prompting you to sign up for TikTok. As already mentioned, the options listed for creating an account will range from the phone option to your Twitter account option.

Pick a convenient option and provide the necessary details.

TikTok will ask for your age because you must be 13 or older to be on the app. When you’re done setting your date of birth, click next and provide a means to verify your account, either through your email or phone number.

If you use your email, you’ll verify through the link sent, and if you use a phone number, enter the verification code sent.

How To Switch Between Multiple Accounts on TikTok

As established earlier, you can switch between your TikTok account in two methods: the drop-down menu from the profile page or the settings option.

However, these are the detailed steps for each method to switch TikTok accounts easily.

Method #1: Switch Between TikTok Accounts From the Drop-Down Menu

The drop-down menu is the same as the one you used to create another account in the first place.

When you tap that drop-down icon again from an account, you’ll see all the TikTok accounts you have, and you can tap on any to switch to that account.

These are the steps involved:

1. Launch the TikTok application.
2. Tap the “Profile” tab in the bottom right corner.
3. Tap on the drop-down icon next to your username.
4. You’ll see a list of your TikTok accounts; tap on the one you want to switch to.

If you logged out of any at any point, you must sign in when switching.

Method #2: Switch Between TikTok Accounts From Settings and Privacy

This option comes with more steps than you get from using the drop-down menu.

However, if, for some reason, you find it hard to use the drop-down menu, these are the steps to switching your account from the settings:

1. Launch the TikTok application.
2. Tap on the “Profile” tab at the far right of the navigation bar.
3. Tap on the hamburger menu icon at the top right of your profile page.
4. Tap on “Settings and privacy.”
5. Scroll until you reach “Switch account,” and tap on it.
6. Tap on the account you want to switch to.

You’ll see a list of your TikTok accounts, and you can tap on the account you want to switch to.

Conclusion

With this guide, you can easily create multiple accounts on TikTok and switch between them as you wish.

Have fun, and keep creating on TikTok!
