TikTok’s profile view history shows who viewed your profile in the past 30 days — only viewers who also turned it on, and only if you’re 16+ with under 5,000 followers. Check if you can use it.

Two-minute check
Tick what’s true. All three are TikTok’s own conditions; if one is missing, the list stays empty or the setting doesn’t appear.

How it works
Turning profile view history on does two things at once: you see accounts that viewed your profile, and accounts you view can see your visit — if their setting is on too. Turning it off hides both directions.
That is why the list is never complete: anyone who keeps the setting off can view your profile without appearing, and you can do the same.

The 30-day window
The list covers one rolling window: the past 30 days. Inside it, only visits from accounts with profile view history on are shown. Visits from accounts with the setting off never appear, and anything older than 30 days drops out.
Settings
TikTok’s Help Center lists three routes to the same setting. It is off by default.
Profile → ☰ → Settings and privacy → Privacy → Profile views.

Empty list?
| What you see | Most likely reason | What you can do |
|---|---|---|
| The list is empty | Nobody with the setting on viewed you in 30 days — or your own setting is off. | Check your setting; wait for new visits. |
| A friend says they looked, but isn’t listed | Their profile view history is off. | Nothing; the feature only works between accounts that both have it on. |
| The Profile views button disappeared | You passed 5,000 followers, or the setting is unavailable for your account. | TikTok doesn’t offer the list above that threshold. |
| Visits older than a month are gone | The history covers 30 days. | Note visits you care about; older ones aren’t kept in this list. |
Viewer and stalker apps
Searches for profile views lead to apps promising more than TikTok shows. TikTok’s Help Center describes only its built-in profile view history; nothing there suggests outside apps can see more.
“See everyone who viewed your profile, even with the setting off.”
TikTok shows visits only from accounts that have profile view history on. An app that lists more is guessing — often from who liked or commented — or inventing names.
“Top stalkers who visit your profile the most.”
Rankings like this are usually built from public interactions such as likes and comments, not from profile visits.
“Log in with TikTok to unlock your viewers.”
Giving an outside app your login or a code you received is the most common way accounts get taken over. If you connected one already, remove it in Security & permissions.
“Watch any profile anonymously.”
Viewing someone without appearing in their list is how TikTok already works when your own profile view history is off — no app needed.
