How to Change Your Age on TikTok
TikTok doesn’t let you change your age on the app at all. If you signed up using social media, it probably stole your details from there. If you want to change your birthdate, you’re going to have to create a new account.
Step 1: Log out of your account
Firstly, you’ll need to log out of your current account completely. Ensure that you disable any automatic log-in features. It’s the only way to reach the account creation screen on your mobile phone.

Step 2: Create a new account
When you open TikTok again, it’ll ask you to sign in or create a new account. You’ll need to select the latter. It will then ask how you want to sign up. For you to specify your birth date, you can only opt for the phone and email selections. You’ll need to use new details this time.

Step 3: Set your age
You have reached the screen where need to place your birthday. Remember to use the correct one this time. After you’re done with this step, TikTok will ask to confirm your email address or phone number. You won’t be able to use the application’s features properly until you finalize this task.

Young at heart
You don’t need to worry about your age when using TikTok. Adults are having way too much fun with it to care if they carry on like teenagers. Everyone is either singing duets or making mockumentaries for some casual entertainment. It’s the one place you can enact the youngster living in all of us.
