Are you new to TikTok and wondering how to send messages or text other users? You’re not alone! This is a common question asked by many TikTok enthusiasts. Sending messages on TikTok is a great way to connect with other users and share your interests. In this post, we’ll show you how to send messages on TikTok.

The first thing you need to do is turn on the messaging feature in the app’s privacy settings. Here’s how you can do it:

1. Go to your profile page on TikTok.

2. Tap on the three lines on the top right corner.

3. Select “Privacy.”

4. Scroll down and find the “Direct Messages” option.

5. Choose between “No One,” “Friends,” or “Everyone.”

If you set this option to “No One,” you won’t receive any messages on TikTok. If you choose “Friends,” only users who follow you can send you messages. And if you select “Everyone,” anyone on TikTok can send you messages, which can sometimes lead to spam.

To send a message to someone on TikTok, you first need to find the user you want to message. You can do this by using the “Discover” tab or searching for their username. Keep in mind that if the person has their profile set to “No One,” you won’t be able to send them a message.

To message someone on TikTok, you can either press the three dots on their profile and select “Send Message,” or click on the message icon if you’re already following them. If you get an error message saying that you can’t message them, it means they either have their privacy settings set to “Friends” or “No One.” You can try following them and then sending a message.

Once you and the other user follow each other and have your privacy settings set to “Friends” or “Everyone,” you can send messages on TikTok just like you would on any other messaging app. You can use emojis, send videos, and like each other’s content.

We hope this guide helps you send messages on TikTok with ease. Happy messaging!
