Is TikTok Now not working for you? Don't fret, there are some easy fixes.

TikTok Now, the BeReal clone, is causing problems for many users as of late. People are reporting that the app is not working as it should. It is interesting to note that BeReal was not working properly at the start as well.

Luckily, we've got some potential solutions that might fix the problem and restore your TikTok Now experience to normal. So let's jump right into it!

What to do if the TikTok Now feature is not working

For some people, TikTok Now is available as a feature within the TikTok app rather than a standalone app. Unfortunately, it seems that not all users have been able to access the feature for some reason.

If you are one of the unfortunate ones who can't use it, here's what you can do:

Make sure you meet the age requirement

TikTok Now has set some age restrictions on its use. The feature is only available to users who are at least 13 years old (or 14 in South Korea and Indonesia). And users aged 18 years and over will be able to take a TikTok Now.

Update your TikTok app

If the TikTok Now feature is not working for you, there is a good chance that you are running an older version of the app, which does not have the TikTok Now feature. So, go to the store and make sure the TikTok app is fully updated.

Reach out to TikTok

If you are eligible to use the TikTok Now feature and your TikTok app is up-to-date, it is likely that some bug in the app is causing the issue. If that's the case, we recommend you contact the TikTok support team and report the bug.

What to do if the TikTok Now app is not working

If you are experiencing problems with the TikTok Now app, try working through these troubleshooting steps. Before following these steps, make sure you are running the latest versions of the TikTok Now app and your device's operating system.

  • Restart the app and your device.
  • Check your Internet connection.
  • Go to DownDetector to see if there are any issues with the TikTok servers.
  • If you are on Android, try clearing the app cache. iPhone users can uninstall and reinstall the app.
  • If the problem still persists, contact TikTok support and let them know by reporting the problem.

Since TikTok Now is a recently launched app, it is inevitable that there will be problems with it. The OG app, BeReal, also had many issues at the start such as the BeReal notification not working issue and the can't add friends bug. But the developers acted swiftly to fix these bugs.

We can expect a similar reaction from TikTok developers as well. Hopefully, they will iron out all the bugs asap and make sure that the app works well for all users.
