Hello,
Hey is there a glitch with the Tiktok user block feature. I know I'm blocked by a user but sometimes when I search the user name thier videos with show in the Top search. I can watch the videos. If I click the user name it will take me to thier profile but I can see the videos there. Any idea?

I’m am too noticing this and think they are blocking and unblocking in which make their video available from un blocking. Once you leave search and go back to search the video’s are gone.

Hi,

I suspect that there is a bug with TikTok, because normally if someone blocks you, you will not be able to see their videos. Instead, you will see a message informing you that you cannot access the content.

You can report the bug by going to Me, selecting the 3 vertical dots and choosing Report a problem.

I have reported it. The user doesn't pop every time I search but they do some times and I can watch the videos from the Top search page. Have you ever heard of this happening before ?

I would think if it was a bug I wouldn't be the first to notice it. Possible they are unblocking and blocking again?

This could also be a possibility... but if it is indeed related to a bug, then it will be fixed thanks to your report. Perhaps the bug is not present with all users...

Hi, thanks for your post. I’ve been meeting with this curiousity for 3 months and still do. I was blocked by my ex, then I just tried searching her profile then keep seeing it appear on top search page twice a day. (I search it more than twice a day). But it seems now Tiktok has fixed this bug. I never see her profile appears on topsearch anymore lately. But still, there’s a sign that wonders me if she still keeps unblocking then block? Becoz her profile photo still appears then disappear sometime.
