Why are my TikTok comments or replies hidden?

Updated over 2 months ago

If your comments or replies don’t show up on TikTok — or if they seem to disappear — it’s usually caused by one of TikTok’s privacy or comment-filtering settings.

Here’s how to fix it 👇

Check if “Creator Care Mode” is ON

TikTok can automatically hide comments it considers inappropriate or “sensitive”.

To check:

Profile → Menu (☰) → Settings and privacy → Privacy → Comments → Creator Care Mode

Turn Creator Care Mode OFF if you want your comments to appear normally.

💡 This feature is helpful but can be too aggressive and hide perfectly normal comments.

Review other TikTok comment settings

Still in PrivacyComments, check these options:

  • Allow comments
    Make sure this is set to Everyone.
    If it’s set to “Friends” or “No one”, many comments simply won’t appear.

  • Comment filters

    TikTok may hide comments based on your active filters:

    • Filter all comments → If this is ON, all comments remain hidden until you manually approve them.

    • Keyword filters → If you added blocked words, any comment containing them will automatically be hidden.

    • Spam or offensive comment filters → TikTok’s automated moderation may block comments without notifying you.

    To see what’s being hidden, open Review filtered comments and approve any comments you want to display.
