If you no longer want to see someone’s content, you may be wondering how to unsubscribe from someone on TikTok. On TikTok, “unsubscribing” usually means unfollowing an account or stopping interactions with them. This guide explains how to unsubscribe from someone on TikTok step by step.
What Does “Unsubscribe” Mean on TikTok?
Unlike other platforms, TikTok doesn’t use the word “subscribe” for regular users.
Instead, it means:
- Unfollow someone
- Stop seeing their videos in your feed
- Remove them from your following list
Method 1: Unfollow Someone from Their Profile
Steps
- Open TikTok
- Search for or open the person’s profile
- Tap the Following button

You’ve successfully unsubscribed (unfollowed).
Method 2: Unfollow from Your Following List
Steps
- Go to your Profile on TikTok
- Tap Following
- Find the user
- Tap Following → Unfollow
Method 3: Remove Their Content from Your Feed
If you don’t want to unfollow completely:
Steps

You’ll see less of their content.
Method 4: Block the User (Stronger Option)
If you want to completely stop interaction:
Steps

What Happens After Unsubscribing?
