How to See Who Viewed Your TikTok Profile, Video, or Story

If you have ever posted something on TikTok and wondered “Who watched this?”, you are not alone in this network. A lot of people are curious to know who’s checking out their content or visiting their profile. While TikTok doesn’t show everything, there are a few things you can find out.

Here’s a simple guide to help you understand what TikTok does and doesn’t tell you when it comes to profile views, video views, and story views.

1. How to See Who Viewe Your Profile on TikTok

Yes, TikTok has a Profile View History feature but it only works if you and the other person both have it turned on.

Here’s how to turn it on:

  1. Open the TikTok app.
  2. Tap on your profile icon (bottom right).
  3. Look for an eye icon at the top of your profile.
  4. Tap it and turn on Profile View History.

Once it’s on, you’ll see a list of people who visited your profile in the past 30 days. But again, only if they also have the feature on.

2. Can You See Who Viewed Your TikTok Videos?

This is the part many users wish was different: TikTok does not show you exactly who watched your videos.

What you can see:

  • The number of views on each video.
  • Who liked, commented, or shared your video.
  • General stats (if you have a Pro or Business account), like:
    • Where your viewers are from
    • Their gender
    • How long they watched

But no, you won’t get a list of names or usernames of who viewed your video. TikTok keeps that private.

3. How to See Who Viewed Your TikTok Stories

Good news here: TikTok does let you see who viewed your story.

To check your story viewers:

  1. Post a story (just like you would on Instagram or Snapchat).
  2. Go to your story and tap the eye icon.
  3. You’ll see a list of people who watched it.

Stories are short-lived (usually disappear after 24 hours), but during that time, you’ll get to see exactly who watched them.

Final Words

TikTok gives you a few ways to see who’s engaging with your content, but it doesn’t give you everything. Here’s a quick summary:

  • ✅ Profile views – Yes, if both people turn on the feature.
  • ❌ Video views – No names, only numbers and stats.
  • ✅ Story views – Yes, you can see who watched.

Hopefully, TikTok need to adds advance tools in the future to help the user to understand their audience better. For now, theis is the best way to grow your profile is to focus on making great content and watching the numbers (and followers) go up.
