Are you worried that you've been blocked by someone on TikTok? While TikTok won't send you an alert that tells you you've been blocked, there are many signs of blocking you should be aware of. This wikiHow article will show you what TikTok profiles, messages, and your following list might look when a user blocks you, and help you determine whether you've been blocked for sure.

1.

   Open TikTok. It’s the app with a music note inside. You’ll usually find it on the home screen or in the app drawer (if you have an Android).

2. 

   2

   Tap the profile icon. It’s the outline of a person at the bottom-right corner of the screen.

   Tap Follow. If you are able to follow this person (or able to request to follow), you haven’t been blocked. If you see a message that says ″You can't follow this account due to their user privacy settings,″ you’ve likely been blocked by this user.
