How to See Your Watch History on TikTok
Isn’t it embarrassing when you are joyously eager to show your friend a funny TikTok that you come across and you can not find it? We’ve all been there. Fortunately, TikTok can save your watch history as a record. It would be an excellent tip for the starters in TikTok as well as for the professional users as they get to know how to find the watch history of the application.

How to Find a TikTok Video You Watched
If you can recall a few things about the video you wish to revisit, you wouldn’t need to go through a list of hundreds (and possibly thousands) of videos you have probably spent hours watching. To find relevant videos, you have to use the search function of TikTok with which filters can help to get less videos to scroll through them all. You only have to type the details you can recall in the search box and then apply the filters appropriate to a particular search.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do it:
1. Open the TikTok app.
2. Go to the Discover tab.
3. Simply enter your search query in the box above.
4. To the right of the search bar there is the Filters icon, click it.
5. Toggle on Watched.
6. Press Apply.
From your watch history, you will be shown a list of videos that correlate with your search. You want to watch that hilarious skit your friend posted sometime last week or that makeup tutorial you saw some time last month. You can narrow it down even further using filters for Liked Videos or selecting dates. This way, you can leave fewer options which gives you the purpose of locating the exact thing you wanted to.
It’s also possible to ask TikTok to provide all the information the company has on you; it will include your watch history and other actions.
In case you would like to recall the contents of a past event or even monitor what you’re currently consuming, the TikTok watch history comes in handy.
