How To Know If Someone Deleted Their TikTok Account

✎ Key Takes:

» You can know if someone deleted their TikTok account by checking if their profile is no longer accessible; if deleted, trying to visit their profile will result in a message stating that the user doesn’t exist.
» Just use an additional method by looking for the person’s content on TikTok – if their account is deleted, all videos will be removed, providing a clear indication of account deletion.

2. Check your following list

If you were previously following the user and his account no longer appears on your following list, he may have deleted his account.

Check your following list

For this, go to your profile and click on “Following” to see if his account is still on your list. If it’s not there, he may have deleted the account.

3. Check for videos

Deleted TikTok Vs Deactivated TikTok:

Here are the differences between a deleted and a deactivated TikTok account:

2. All of their videos, likes, comments, and followers will be completely erased and cannot be retrieved.

3. Other TikTok users will no longer be able to search for or view the deleted user’s profile.

4. The username associated with the deleted account will become available for other users to claim after a certain amount of time has passed.

▸ Deactivated TikTok Account:
