How To Refresh TikTok Page
Refresh the TikTok page means letting TikTok know that you are not interested in the content you have been shown, and now you have different interests. The “For You” page is designed to show you the content you like or according to your interests. It is the main page where users watch the content most of the time. Having it according to your interests is very important. Otherwise, you will be shown content that doesn’t match the content you want to watch. Unfortunately, there is no direct method to refresh the TikTok page with one tap. TikTok doesn’t have such a feature that can let your refresh the “For You” page. But other ways can help you achieve your goal of refreshing the TikTok page. To refresh the TikTok page, follow the steps below.
Step #1: Open Your Profile Page
To get started with refreshing the TikTok page, open TikTok and go to your profile page by pressing the icon on the right bottom corner of the TikTok screen.
Step #2: Free up Space
You will see three dots on the profile page in the upper right corner. Tap on three lines and select “Settings and privacy.” Then scroll down and select “Free up space.”
Step #3: Clear Cache
After opening the “Free up space” section, tap on the “Clear” beside Cache to clear the cache.
Step #4: Hide Unwanted Videos
After clearing the cache, go back to the “For You” page. Keep swiping up the videos until you see the video you are not interested in. When you find such a video, tap and hold the video until some options pop up. When the menu pops up, tap on “Not interested.” Keep doing this whenever you see a video that you are not interested in anymore.
Final Words
After completing these steps, you will no longer watch the videos you don’t like. But if you ever encounter such a video, you can apply the last step on that video, and such videos will stop showing on your “For You” page. Now you can enjoy the videos that you like without any interruption. TikTok was the most downloaded app of 2021, with downloads of 656 million.
