TIKTOK’s story feature is a fun way to share what you’re up to with your friends.
But if you’re having second thoughts about a TikTok Story you posted, this is how you delete it.
What is a story on TikTok?
TikTok Stories are short videos that users can post to their accounts.
They allow users to present a snapshot of their day or quickly share a TikTok they’re a fan of.
These Stories are very similar to Instagram and Snapchat Stories.
Stories cannot be longer than 15 seconds, but there is no limit to how many stories a user can post.
Do TikTok Stories expire?
TikTok Stories only last for 24 hours before disappearing.
After that, they will be saved in your archive, where other users will not be able to see them.
You’ll always be able to access your archive, allowing you to review everything you’ve posted (similar to rereading a diary).
How can you delete a story on TikTok?
If you regret something you posted, you can delete the story in a few easy steps.

First, open the story on your TikTok account.
Then click on the three dots in the right corner.
Then click delete and delete again.
Now your story has been deleted.
Can you recover a deleted story on TikTok?
Deleted Stories cannot be recovered from TikTok, unlike deleted posts.
However, if you saved your story to your camera roll, you can retrieve it from there.
Stories are meant to be less permanent than posts, so they are harder to retrieve.
Can you see who viewed your TikTok story?
Just like on Instagram, you can see who viewed your story on TikTok.
To check who is viewing your story, simply open your post and click the icon in the bottom left corner.
This will open a list of everyone who saw your post.
How long has TikTok been popular?
TikTok, owned by Chinese internet company ByteDance, became the most popular app in the world in 2021.
In 2020, it had already surpassed 2 billion downloads.
The app itself launched internationally in 2017 and merged with Musical.ly in 2018 in a $1 billion deal.
Other companies have tried to keep up with its rapid growth by incorporating their own features borrowed from TikTok, such as Instagram’s Reels feature.
