TikTok stalkers beware: there is a new feature that could expose your curious creepings.

The social media app is rolling out a Profile View History feature that allows users to – as the name suggests – see who has viewed their profile.

When a user turns this feature on, other TikTok users who have also activated this feature will be able to see when the user has viewed their own profiles as well.

Want to see who has been peeping your profile? Then read on.

How to turn on and off your Profile View History

The default setting has the feature off, so you will need to turn it on to start seeing your profile view history.
