Un-reposting a video on TikTok
TikTok has become one of the best short video platforms for creating content, gaining inspiration, and watching short content to kill boredom.
As the platform continues to grow, it has introduced many unique features to enhance its short-video oriented user experience.
One of the unique features TikTok introduced is reposting, which allows users to re-post videos of other TikTok users instead of first downloading and then re-uploading them — similar to retweeting on X (aka Twitter).
However, people who are new to the feature often end up reposting a video by mistake. Luckily, the platform allows you to undo your reposts. But how exactly do we undo reposts on TikTok?

How to undo a repost on TikTok?
A user may want to remove a repost for various reasons, such as reposting a video by mistake, making a typo in comment, or simply because they changed their mind.
However, un-reposting a video is easy. Here’s how to un-repost a video on TikTok:
- Open TikTok and go to your profile.
- Tap on the “Reposts” tab, which appears next to the “Private videos” tab. All your TikTok reposts appear in this tab. However, if the reposts tab is missing from your profile, it means you have yet to repost a TikTok. Once you repost something, the reposts tab will automatically appear in your profile.
- Next, to undo a TikTok repost, tap and open the reposted video you wish to remove.
- Tap the share button.
- Tap “Remove repost” to undo the TikTok repost.
If you still can’t find the reposts tab in your profile despite reposting something, close and reopen TikTok and try again.
Things you should know:
- The Reposts tab (where reposted content appears) only appears in your profile once you repost something.
- The comments you make while reposting a video are removed when you remove the repost.
So, if you ever want to undo TikTok repost, just repeat the same process for that repost.

Conclusion
TikTok has a feature that allows its users to repost content from the content creators they like. Reposting is often compared to the retweeting feature of the X app, formerly known as Twitter. To undo a TikTok repost, open your profile, tap the “Reposts” tab in the middle, open the required video, tap the share button, and tap “Remove repost.” Removing a repost removes your comments on that video that you make at the time of reposting.
