Spending time on the TikTok social network, the user watches a huge number of videos every day, sees a lot of people, both popular and not very popular. But I also want to see what my friends are posting. It is not always possible to search by nickname – you can simply not know it. But there is one more option. This article will help answer the question “How to find a person on TikTok by phone number?”.
Step by step
When registering in the application, the user specifies his phone number. This is what we will use. If we have a phone book with our contacts, then everything will be pretty quick and easy. We do the following:
- Authorization in the account is a prerequisite. If you don’t have your own page, you’ll have to create it.
- Go to our profile (right button in the bottom menu).
- On the new page, go to the top left corner to search for friends (the icon with a man and a plus next to it).
- Move the page to the bottom.
- TT prompts us to search for contacts.
You will need to give permission to the application for such a search. If you gave it, then in the same way your page can be found in contacts.
You can simply view the pages of users of interest, or you can start subscribing and wait for a subscription in return.
Other search options
You can search not only by number, but also use the following methods:
- ID;
- nickname;
- name specified in the profile;
- social networks.
There are enough options, but not all of them are fast and convenient. For example, if we search by nickname or profile information, then the search will be delayed. We need to know everything more precisely, otherwise we will stumble upon the wrong people along the way, since nicknames can be very similar.
QR code
Another way to search, perhaps the fastest and most convenient. Of course, for him you will have to ask permission to search from the very person you want to find.
We return to our profile, go to the search for people, and then in the upper right corner you can see the line, which is taken in brackets. Tap on it.
We are thrown to scan the code, we can do it right away (if the person is standing nearby), or click on the “Photo” button in the upper right corner. It will allow you to download and scan the code directly from the gallery. This requires the other person to take a screenshot of their code.
How to screenshot your code
We see the button “Your QR code” below. Here we can change the background color, or we can choose one of the functions below: download (saved as a picture), share on social networks, where you can choose any convenient one and send it to a specific person. Or just hold down the keyboard shortcut on your smartphone to take a screenshot.
Summary
In order to find the right user, you can use different methods. Searching by mobile number is the most convenient and fast, but not always the account you need will be tied to the owner’s number, you should take this into account. It is best to directly ask for a link or a QR code, then the search will take just a couple of seconds.
