If you’re tracking your performance as a creator, you may be wondering: how do you see total views on TikTok? TikTok makes it easy to view the number of views on individual videos, and eligible accounts can also use TikTok Analytics to monitor overall account performance.
In this guide, we’ll explain how to see your TikTok video views, check your total account views using Analytics, and what to do if you can’t find the information you’re looking for.
Can You See Total Views on TikTok?
Yes.
There are two main ways to check views on TikTok:
- Individual video views displayed on each post.
- Overall account views through TikTok Analytics (available for eligible accounts).
If you want to know how many times all your videos have been watched, TikTok Analytics is the best option.
How to See Views on Individual TikTok Videos
Step 1: Open TikTok
Launch the TikTok app and sign in to your account.
Step 2: Go to Your Profile
Tap Profile in the bottom-right corner.
Step 3: Browse Your Videos
Each video displays its view count in the lower corner of the thumbnail.
This number represents how many times that specific video has been viewed.
How to See Your Total TikTok Views
If you have access to TikTok Analytics:
Step 1: Open Your Profile
Tap Profile.
Step 2: Open Settings
Tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines).
Step 3: Go to TikTok Studio or Creator Tools
Depending on your app version, open:
- TikTok Studio, or
- Creator Tools
Step 4: Open Analytics
Tap Analytics.
Step 5: View Your Overview
In the Analytics dashboard, you’ll find information such as:
- Total video views
- Profile views
- Follower growth
- Engagement metrics
- Video performance over selected time periods
You can often filter data by the last 7, 28, 60, or 365 days, depending on the available options.
Can You See Lifetime Total Views?
TikTok does not currently display one public number showing the lifetime combined views of all your videos.
However, you can:
- Review total video views within Analytics for available date ranges.
- Estimate your lifetime views by adding the views from your individual videos if needed.
How to See Someone Else’s TikTok Views
You can view the public view count of any public video.
Simply:
- Open their profile.
- Look at each video’s thumbnail.
TikTok does not show another user’s total account views publicly.
Why Can’t I See TikTok Analytics?
Possible reasons include:
Your Account Isn’t Eligible
Some analytics features may require a creator, business, or eligible personal account.
Outdated App
Update TikTok to the latest version.
New Account
New accounts may need time to generate enough activity before certain analytics become available.
Temporary App Issue
Restart TikTok and try again.
