Are you looking for fresh videos on the For You page on TikTok? Fortunately, you can easily reset the feed there so you'll be served a bunch of new videos. However, TikTok keeps any and all data it's gathered about you so far, so older videos from the previous algorithm may end up leaking back into your For You page. This wikiHow article teaches you how to reset the TikTok For You page algorithm.
Things You Should Know
- To reset the TikTok algorithm, tap the three-line menu on your profile, go to "Settings and privacy" > "Content Preferences," and tap "Refresh."
- Refreshing the algorithm gives you a chance to see different kinds of videos on your FYP.
