Did you refresh the “For You” page on TikTok while watching a video and you have done it accidentally?

If yes, you might want to see the previous video you have watched.

It can be difficult to find that video that you have the last watch if you did not find it interesting.

However, if you liked the video, it will be available in your liked videos.

To find it, simply go to your profile and tap on the heart icon.

If you did not like the video, you will have to find another way to find it out.

On other social media sites such as YouTube, you can see your watch history using the “History” tab.

Does TikTok offer a “History” tab in the app?

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

How to Find People on OnlyFans

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

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.
