How to delete a comment on TikTok

Once a TikTok comment has been posted, you cannot edit it. However, deleting a comment is simple.

1. Open the TikTok comment thread that includes the comment you wish to delete. Note that you can only delete comments you have made; you cannot delete other users' comments.

Your comment should no longer be visible on the thread. You cannot retrieve a comment once it has been deleted, so if you simply made a typo and just want to edit your original comment, tap "Copy" before you tap "Delete." Then, you can paste the text of the original comment into a new comment and edit the text before reposting.
