You’re Following Too Fast on TikTok (How to Fix)

By

Have you encountered the “You’re following too fast” error on Tiktok when you try to follow new users?

There are many users who see this error and it can be frustrating for them.

You may want to follow the users you like but the TikTok app is preventing you from doing it.

In this post, I am going to guide you on how to fix the TikTok following too fast error and also tell you how to prevent it from happening again.

What is the “You’re following too fast” error on TikTok?

The question is what is this error on tiktok that you are following too fast?

This error “You’re following too fast” indicates that you have exceeded the limit of TikTok.

In short, you are unable to follow new people temporarily.

How do I fix the “You’re following too fast” error on TikTok?

Now we see how to fix this error on TikTok?

To resolve the issue “You’re following too fast” error on TikTok, you need to have patience. The error will be displayed for a few minutes or more depending on the number of times you faced the error.

If you are unable to follow anyone on TikTok, it is because you have exceeded the following limit.

There is nothing you can do about the error except waiting for the error to go away on its own.

How long does the “You’re following too fast” block last?

It depends on the situation.

It depends on the number of times you have exceeded the limit of following, “You’re following too fast” block can last for a few minutes, several minutes or more than that.

For example, if you begin to follow new users soon after the block is lifted, then the system will block you from following once again.

Further, the duration of the block will be longer than the previous span.

When the error message is disappeared, it means that you are not blocked from following but it does not mean that you repeat the mistake again.

It is because it will result in an increase in the duration of the block the next time the message appears.

Is there a follow limit on TikTok?

People frequently ask this question but the answer is no, there is no specific limit on TikTok in terms of limits.

However, it is suggested that you should not follow more than 30 users per hour.

The only method you can use to find the following limit on TikTok for your account is to experiment it on your own.

Here is a step by step guide on how can you experiment it for yourself:

  1. Firstly, start following as many users as possible until you receive the “You’re following too fast” error/message.
  2. After each minute, you can try to follow more users until the block is lifted.
  3. Repeat the process and keep count of the duration of the block every time you get blocked.

If you have leisure time, you can try the previous steps to find out the exact limit of your TikTok account.

Why did I get the error?

The problem occurs when you try to exceed the following limitations on the app.

Every social media platform tries to avoid spamming, bots and automation and the TikTok app is no exception.

So, if you are following users on TikTok too fast, the system will consider you a bot and it will result in a temporary block from following.

The main cause of getting this error is because you are doing the follow and unfollow frequently.

This includes the strategy of getting followers and you use this strategy to build a list of following on the app and also hope they will follow you back.

If you want to do that, you should avoid abusing it and do not exceed the limit of following.

Otherwise, you will be in hot water and it will prevent you from following more users.

How do I prevent the following too fast error on TikTok?

There are a number of steps you can take to avoid the error from ever happening again.

Follow the tricks below and you will never get blocked from following others on the app again.

Trick 1: Follow others in intervals.

When you follow any user, you need to ensure that you do it in gaps.

An example of a gap is following one person every 3 minutes.

This gap between the following will keep you safe from the error and you will not be blocked due to the system abusing.

Trick 2: Do not follow more than 25 users in an hour

This is another way to avoid the restriction from following, you should not follow more than 25 users per hour.

However, the limit of following on TikTok is 30 users per hour.

But I recommend 25 users.

It is the general information for you to follow.

Trick 3: Don’t use automation

It is another way of getting blocked from following that is, using automation.

It is because the algorithm of TikTok can detect that you’re using automation and will block you immediately.

When you go through TikTok’s Community Guidelines, you will come to know that Automation is also against their guidelines and it might result in the suspension of your account.

Why does TikTok say you’re tapping too fast?

There is another error that you might encounter while using TikTok that is, “You’re tapping too fast” error.

If you are getting this error, it means that you are liking various videos rapidly and without even watching them.

This error is also faced by most users and they do it while swiping the videos of their followers.

That is the reason TikTok considers you a bot because you do not act like a normal human being and it results in the error.

You also have to wait for this error to go away on its own.

Final Words

If you get this error “You’re following too fast” on TikTok, the only way to prevent it is to stop following for a long time.

Instead, follow the users in intervals or gaps.

Furthermore, you should not exceed the limit on TikTok which is more or less 30 users per hour.

These tips will help you to avoid being blocked.

Now, you have successfully learned how to get rid of you’re following too fast on TikTok.

How to Find Someone on TikTok by Phone Number

By

Do you want to find someone on Tiktok but you do not know the procedure?

It is a simple task to find someone on Tiktok – all you need to use is the search function of the platform.

However, you need to know the name or username of that person too.

If you do not know the username or name of that person, then you cannot find them on Tik Tok app.

When it comes to finding someone on TikTok by phone number, the search feature will not help you.

To find people on TikTok by phone number, you need to navigate to “Find contacts” page on the application.

In this post, I am going to teach you how to find someone on TikTok on the app, by phone number, and on the computer/PC.

How to find someone on TikTok

Use the search option on the application to find someone on TikTok, or you can also choose “Find Friends” page.

Furthermore, you can also reach them if you are familiar with the username of the person, just visit their profile by typing tiktok.com/@username using a web browser.

Steps include: Open TikTok app> Login> Discover> search for person’s name/username

The page “Find friends” enables you to find your friends on TikTok with the help of your contact list or Facebook.

If you have a large number of contact lists, there is a chance that some of them may have connected the phone number with the app, so you can find the user in “Find contacts” feature.

Unlike other social media platforms, TikTok’s profile link is different.

For example, a social media platform like Instagram, the profile link does not have “@” sign (e.g. Instagram.com/greenhatexpertcom).

However, if you want to visit the profile of someone using their link on TikTok app, you need to include “@” sign before their username, for example, (tiktok.com/@greenhatexpert).

The search feature on TikTok is similar to other social media platforms.

To find someone, you need to enter their username or name there if you know it.

Then, go through the search results to find their profile based on social links or their profile picture (if they posted any).

I am going to share a couple of ways to find people on Tiktok.

How to find someone on TikTok by phone number

The process include: Your Profile> profile icon with “+” sign.

To find someone on TikTok by phone number, you need to go to the “Find friends” page.

This will help you to find your friends on TikTok using contacts or Facebook.

First of all, open TikTok app on your android/mobile.

After doing so, log in to your account, usually it is already logged in.

When you reach the homepage of the app, tap on the “Me” icon available on the bottom navigation bar.

The process will lead you to your profile where you can see all your videos on TikTok app.

The top navigation bar of the profile displays a profile icon with a sign of “+”.

To go to the “Find friends” page, you need to tap on profile icon with a “+” sign.

To find your contacts to locate the people with TikTok account who have linked their phone number, tap on “Find contacts” option to find them.

After reaching the “Find friends” page, there are three options you can see there – Find contacts, Invite friends and Find Facebook friends.

The first option is “Invite friends” enables you to invite your friends to TikTok app via social platforms or using your contacts.

The next option is “Find contacts” enables you to locate your friends on TikTok using their phone number.

The last option is “Find Facebook friends” enables you to find someone on Tiktok by Facebook.

You will definitely want to choose the option of “Find contacts”.

So, tap on “Find contacts” option to get started.

It will ask you to add your phone number.

You can skip this option by tapping on “Skip” or add your phone number by tapping on “Add”.

Your friends will be able to find your profile on TikTok using your phone number if you add the number.

If you skip the process by tapping on “Skip”, your friends will not be able to find you on TikTok by your phone number.

After adding your phone number or skipping it, you will see your contacts list.

The contact list displays the list of contacts either with a “Follow” button or an “invite” button.

If your contact shows a “Follow” button, showing that your contact have already connected their phone number with TikTok and they are using the app.

Alternatively, your contact with an “Invite” button shows that they either do not have installed application on the android or didn’t connect the phone number on the app.

Well done! You have successfully learned how to find someone on TikTok by phone number.

How to search for someone on TikTok on computer

log in to existing tiktok account

The steps include visit TikTok.com> Click “Login” button> Login.

You need to visit the TikTok official website and login your account to search for someone on TikTok on computer.

After logging in, the search can be done using their name or username with the help of search function.

This search function cannot be used if you are not logged in.

However, if you are familiar with the username of the person, you can use it to visit the profile using tiktok.com/@username

To get started, visit TikTok.com and click the “Login” button on website.

After clicking it, log in using your email/phone number/username or using any social options.

Use the search function available there by using their name or username.

After logging into the TikTok platform, you will see “For You” page.

The TikTok logo can be seen on the top navigation bar.

There is a search bar next to the logo of TikTok that displays “Search accounts”.

Enter the username or name of the person to search for someone using the search bar and press enter.

Now, it will come up with the profiles with the same name or username that you put in the search bar.

If the user is not available in the top results, load more search results by scrolling down and click on “Load more”.

Well done! You have successfully learned how to search someone on TikTok on PC/Computer or Desktop.

Final Words

It can be a hard task to find someone on TikTok because a lot of users do not connect their phone number on TikTok.

The contacts method will not work if they did not connect their phone number with app.

If that is the case, you need to find them by searching for their username or name if you know it.

Otherwise, there is no way to find whether they are using TikTok or not unless you ask them.

What Does “Clear Cache” Mean on TikTok?

By

Did you come across a “Clear Cache” feature on TikTok?

If yes, you might be curious to know what does clear cache on TikTok means.

If you already have knowledge of clearing cache, you might be wondering about other questions.

Does clearing cache delete your liked videos?

Does clearing cache delete your drafts on Tiktok app?

Before you start using it, it is best that you are aware of its function.

This will prevent you from any regrets after using the function.

In this guide, I am going to teach you what “Clear Cache” means on TikTok, what it does and other frequently asked questions about it.

What Does “Clear Cache” Mean on TikTok?

“Clear Cache” stands for getting rid of insignificant data available in the application which will free up storage space on your android device.

The cache data stores the details about your profile and the videos you have watched on TikTok so when you clear it the app will load faster as compared to the current state.

If your android device is running out of storage space, you can also clear cache on TikTok to clear some storage.

The number shown beside the “Clear Cache” tab indicates the size of the cache.

For instance, if the number shows “500 M”, it means that the size of the cache is 500 MB (megabytes) of your device.

So if you want to clear the cache that says “500 M”, it will free up 500 MB of your device.

The size of the cache depends on videos you watch on TikTok, the more you watch, the larger the cache.

When you tap on the clear cache on Tiktok, it will clear the data of the videos that you have watched earlier.

Further, you may be logged out of TikTok and you need to log in again.

Cached data is not useful for you, so clearing it will not be a trouble for you.

The only disadvantage of clearing its cache is the application will run slower than the previous time for the first time when you open it.

It is hard to notice because it is hardly noticeable.

Tiktok will cache every video you watch on the app.

So, when you start using the app, the cache size will start growing again.

If your device’s storage space is already full or near to its limit, you need to clear your cache on the app to free some of the space.

However, if you have enough storage on your device and the size of cache is also small, you do not need to clear it.

How to clear cache on TikTok

The function itself is available within the application of TikTok or you can do it using the device settings.

The steps to clear cache on TikTok are: Open TikTok app > Profile > … Icon > Clear Cache.

Here is the step by step guide on how can you clear cache in the TikTok app:

  1. Firstly, open TikTok app and visit your profile.
  2. Tap on the “triple-dots” icon available on the right corner of your screen.
  3. Scroll down to “Cache and Cellular Data”.
  4. Under “Cache and Cellular Data”, tap on “Clear Cache” to clear the cached data.

When you tap on the option of “Clear Cache”, there will be no pop-up message for confirmation to verify the decision.

Instead, it will clear the cache automatically.

So, you need to keep in mind that if you tap the button, the cache will be cleared on TikTok and many users do that.

You do not have to worry about losing anything because the process will not delete anything important.

Clearing cache will just free up some space on your android phone.

Furthermore, you can also clear cache from the settings section if you are doing it on Android device.

The process includes settings> apps> TikTok> clear cache.

If you are an iPhone user, you need to delete the application and reinstall it to clear the cache.

Will clearing cache on TikTok delete drafts?

No, it does not delete your draft on TikTok app.

The process will delete insignificant data including the details of videos you have watched on TikTok.

Clearing cache on TikTok does not mean deleting significant data but the focus is to delete insignificant data such as details of videos you have watched.

After going through the previous statement, you have come to know that nothing important will be deleted, so do not worry about it.

I did an experiment to find out whether the process will delete drafts or not.

Here are the details of steps I took:

  1. To get started, I made a recording of a 15-second video.
  2. Next, I save that video in the drafts.
  3. Now, it is available in my profile.
  4. After that, I cleared the cache of the application from the settings.
  5. Lastly, I visited my profile to see the draft, it was there.

The previous experiment shows that clearing cache on TikTok will not delete the drafts.

To conclude, your drafts are safe after the process.

Does clearing cache on TikTok delete liked videos?

No, when you delete the cache on TikTok, it does not delete your liked videos.

Your liked videos, videos, and drafts will not be deleted when you clear the cache on TikTok.

Your liked videos will not be removed from the app if you clear the cache.

I did an experiment to find out whether the process will delete liked videos or not.

Here are the details of steps I took:

  1. First of all, I liked a few videos on the “For You” page (FYP) on the app.
  2. The next thing I did to check the previous liked videos and the videos that I have just liked were there.
  3. After doing so, I cleared the cache of the app from the settings page.
  4. Finally, I checked my liked videos again after clearing cache, they were still there.

The previous experiment shows that deleting the cache on TikTok will not delete liked videos.

So, you should not be worried about deleting the cache as it will not clear anything important.

If I clear cache on TikTok will it delete my videos?

No, when you delete the cache on TikTok, your videos will remain safe.

Your videos will remain in your profile unless you delete them manually or any of your videos violates the guidelines of TikTok.

Apart from these reasons, your videos will not be deleted.

Again, deleting cache will not clear your videos on the TikTok app, it only deletes unimportant data to save your storage.

I did an experiment to find out whether the process will delete videos.

Here is the step by step process detail:

  1. Firstly, I made a couple of videos and posted them on application.
  2. The video are now available in my profile.
  3. After doing so, I visited the settings and deleted the cache of the app.
  4. Finally, I went back to check my videos they were still there.

This experiment also proves that your videos will not be deleted if you clear cache on TikTok.

Final Words

Clearing cache is an important feature because it gets rid of the unimportant data and provides storage space on your device and also fixes some minor issues too.

In a nutshell, clearing cache is available to free up storage space on your operating system. Further, it solves some minor issues that you face while using the app.

If you want to change your FYP, the first step you need to take is to clear the cache on TikTok.

Furthermore, you can also delete the cache on TikTok via app’s settings if your storage space is about to exceed its limit.

In addition, the same feature is also available on other applications including Facebook and Instagram.

You can use the free storage on your device to download another application.

Lastly, clearing the cache on the app is one of the ways to get rid of insignificant data on your device.

How to Fix “You’re tapping too fast. Take a break!” on TikTok

By

Is your TikTok showing this error message that “You’re tapping too fast take a break!”?

A number of users are experiencing this problem these days, especially new users.

It can be a hurdle whenever you try to like or comment on any video.

The error will stop you from supporting your favorite content creator.

Read this post carefully to get help on how to fix the error and it will not happen again too.

Why is TikTok showing this error: You’re tapping too fast take a break?

The question arises why TikTok keeps showing the error You are tapping too fast, take a break whenever a users tries to like a video?

The error is an indication that you are commenting or liking videos too fast and not even watching them completely.

When you like a lot of videos without fully watching them, TikTok will detect this activity and flag you as a bot and block you from liking/commenting for a period of time.

It usually happens with the new comers.

It is because it takes a while to trust the newer accounts.

If you are new and recently created an account on TikTok and like multiple videos without watching them, the TikTok system will think you’re a bot and restrict you from these actions.

The newer accounts get into trouble for a number of actions on TikTok. It also includes the inability to get on the for You Page on TikTok.

TikTok is also being used for automation purposes and many fake accounts are being created for its sake.

Therefore, the platform restricts the fake accounts by detecting the bots and spam using the algorithm designed for it.

Hence, if you are a new user and keeps liking the videos without watching the full length of video, you may experience the error: You’re tapping too fast, Take a Break!

How long does the error message last?

The error message continues for several minutes, several hours or even for 24 hours or more than this time.

If your account is new, you may be blocked for a longer span because Tiktok loses the trust in your account.

On the contrary, the block does not continue for long period on older accounts due to the built trust in TikTok.

But you do not have to worry about it, eventually it will be removed because it is temporary not permanent.

How to Fix: You’re tapping too fast take a break on TikTok

To fix the issue “You’re tapping to fast. Take a break!” on TikTok, you can either wait for the clearance, clear your cache, reinstall the tiktok application, or create a new account.

Let’s have discussion on all these methods one by one.

1. Wait for the Clearance

The most common or used method of fixing the You’re breaking too fast take a break error on tiktok is to wait for the algorithm or tiktok to open it.

The unblock process may take a few minutes, an hour or more than that depends on how many times you have come across this error message.

The best and easy way to fix it is to wait and the block will be lifted.

It is because the issue is temporary not permanent.

Hence, your restrictions will be removed with time.

2. Clear your cache

The second step is to clear the cache, it is the saved data on the application.

Clearing the cache may lift the ban from the account.

Furthermore, it will also clear some space on the android.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to clear your cache on the TikTok application.

Go to your settings.

tiktok setting and privacy

Firstly, navigate to your profile.

Then, tap on the “triple-dots” icon on the top-right hand corner of the screen.

The tap will show the settings and privacy page to the user.

Navigate to the bottom of the page.

Scroll down to the very end of the Settings and privacy page.

Above the “Add account” option, there is a “Clear cache” option available.

Tap on “Clear cache” to clear the cache of app.

tiktok clear cache

That is it.

After clearing the cache on the app by tapping on it, an animation will be loading on the screen.

If the number on the right side of “Clear Cache” option has turned in to “0 M” it means that you have done the job of clearing the cache successfully.

3. Reinstall the app

If your profile is new, it means you can go for this method that is, to reinstall the tiktok application.

On the home page, delete the application from the device.

Visit the Google Play store and reinstall the Tiktok app.

Reinstallation process will delete the most of the cache, data, and settings so it will get rid of the issue You are tapping too fast take a break from showing.

4. Create a new account

If all the previous options are not working for you, then try making a new account.

When you create a new account, the account will be in a fresh state, so no more blocks on the account.

However, the same mistake should not be repeated that you did in the previous account.

It is because it will get you blocked/banned again.

A new account is also necessary if anything happens to the main account.

For example, if your main tiktok account gets deleted/blocked, you can inform your followers using the secondary account.

How to Prevent: You’re tapping too fast take a break on TikTok

How to save yourself from You’re tapping too fast take a break error on Tiktok from appearing on your screen?

To save yourself from this error, make sure you watch full length of the video before taking any action on the video such as liking or commenting on it.

These instructions are especially for a new account:

1. Watch the entire video before liking it

It is necessary for the new tiktokers to watch the entire video before liking or commenting on it.

If you will not do it, TikTok will flag you as a bot and block you from performing more actions.

The new accounts are at risk because the algorithm of TikTok doesn’t trust the new user.

So, if you have created a new account, you should abstain from liking or commenting on videos.

2. Use the TikTok app like a human

It may sound weird to you but if you want to save your account from the error, you need to stop acting like a robot.

In short, you need to use the app like a normal human, follow, like or comment the videos with intervals and do not spam these actions.

When you behave like a robot, follow, like or comment without intervals, Tiktok considers you as a bot and blocks your actions on the app.

Why does TikTok say you’re tapping too fast? (another common error)

Apart from the error, you may experience another error that is, You’re following too fast.

You can experience this error if you have exceeded the limit of following on TikTok.

Usually, the user should not follow more than 30 users per hour on the app.

So here is a tip whenever you follow users, ensure you are doing it in intervals to prevent the block.

Final Words

If you are getting the error You’re tapping too fast take a break on Tiktok, it is happening because you are doing actions too fast without watching the content(video) from the beginning to the end.

To save yourself from this issue from happening again, you need to watch the entire video before you like or comment on it.

So the TikTok app will consider that you are a human not a robot.
