TikTok’s “Repost” feature allows users to share videos with their followers without downloading or recreating content. This boosts engagement and helps good content reach a wider audience. But when you’re using TikTok on a PC, navigating to see reposted videos—either those you’ve shared or those others have reposted—can be slightly different from the mobile experience. If you’re wondering how to see reposts on TikTok while using a desktop or laptop computer, here is a detailed guide.
TikTok’s Repost Feature
Before diving into the desktop process, it’s helpful to understand how reposting works:
- Reposting shares a video with your followers and adds it to their “For You” feed.
- You can only repost videos from the “For You” feed—not from profiles or search results.
- Reposted videos do not appear on your public profile like liked videos or uploaded content.
On mobile, there’s a special tab called “Reposts” visible to the account owner only. However, TikTok PC does not currently display reposted videos directly under your profile, making access less straightforward.
How to See Your Reposts on TikTok PC
Unfortunately, TikTok’s web version (www.tiktok.com) does not currently support a dedicated section for reposts. However, there are a few methods that may help you view or manage reposted content on your desktop browser:
Method 1: Use TikTok Mobile to Identify Reposted Videos, Then Search on PC
This is the most reliable workaround:
- Open TikTok on your mobile app.
- Go to your profile and tap the Reposts tab (visible only to you).
- Note down the creator’s username or the video’s title.
- On your PC, go to www.tiktok.com and use the search bar to find the video by:
- Username (e.g., @creatorname)
- Keywords from the video caption or hashtags
Once found, you can watch the video or share it on desktop.
Method 2: Bookmark Reposted Videos
If you regularly use TikTok on PC and want easier access to reposts:
- When reposting a video on mobile, tap the share button and copy the video link.
- Save or bookmark the link in your browser (e.g., create a TikTok Reposts folder).
- You can open this link anytime from your PC browser and view the reposted video.
Although this requires a mobile action first, it’s a great way to organize and revisit reposted videos via desktop.
Method 3: View “Liked Videos” (If You Like Before Reposting)
Some users like a video before reposting. If that’s your habit, follow these steps:
- On TikTok PC, go to your profile.
- Click the heart icon tab to see your liked videos.
- Browse through the list for reposted ones.
This is not guaranteed to show all reposts but can help in some cases.
Can You See Who Reposted Your Video on PC?
No. As of now, TikTok does not notify creators who specifically reposted their videos, either on PC or mobile. You may see increased engagement, likes, or views, but the individual users who reposted are not visible.
TikTok Desktop Limitations for Reposts
Here are key things to remember about TikTok’s desktop version:
- No Repost tab on profile.
- No access to reposted content history directly.
- No direct repost option on PC (you can only repost via the mobile app).
- Cannot see who reposted your video from a PC.
