How to Delete Liked Videos on TikTok


TikTok is one of the most popular social media platforms, allowing users to engage with endless short-form videos. One of its key features is the ability to “like” videos, making it easier to revisit content you enjoy. However, there may be times when you want to remove some or all of your liked videos—whether to maintain privacy, declutter your account, or simply refresh your content preferences. Fortunately, TikTok gives you the option to unlike videos directly from your profile.

Why Delete Liked Videos on TikTok?

There are several reasons why users may want to delete their liked videos:

  • Privacy concerns: You may not want others to see what you’ve liked, especially if your liked videos tab is public.
  • Changing interests: Over time, your preferences may evolve, and you might want to clear out old content.
  • Decluttering: Too many liked videos can make it difficult to find the ones you truly enjoy.
  • Algorithm reset: Liking videos influences TikTok’s recommendation system. Removing old likes can help adjust the For You Page to better match your current interests.

How to Delete a Single Liked Video

If you only want to remove specific liked videos, here’s how to do it:

  1. Open the TikTok app and log in to your account.
  2. Tap the Profile icon in the bottom-right corner.
  3. Go to the heart (❤️) tab on your profile to view all your liked videos.
  4. Find the video you want to remove.
  5. Tap on the video to open it.
  6. Tap the heart icon (❤️) again to unlike the video.
    • Once unliked, the video will disappear from your liked videos tab.

How to Delete Multiple Liked Videos

TikTok doesn’t currently offer a bulk “unlike all” option. If you want to clear many liked videos, you’ll need to manually unlike them one by one. To make the process faster:

  • Open your liked videos tab and scroll through.
  • Unlike each video directly by tapping the heart icon.
  • Refresh the page to confirm the videos have been removed.

How to Hide Liked Videos from Others

If your main concern is privacy rather than removing videos, TikTok also allows you to hide your liked videos so that only you can see them:

  1. Open TikTok and go to your Profile.
  2. Tap the three-line menu in the top-right corner.
  3. Select Settings and privacy.
  4. Go to Privacy.
  5. Scroll to Liked videos and choose Only me.
