TikTok allows users to connect their Facebook account to the TikTok mobile application in order to sync their Facebook friends with the video-sharing platform. When this is done, people can find their Facebook friends who also use TikTok.
Once a user syncs their Facebook friends with the TikTok app, TikTok will periodically sync their Facebook friends so that they’re always up to date. Users can also turn this feature off so that the app will stop syncing their Facebook friends in the future.
Even if someone stops syncing their Facebook friends with the TikTok app, any friends who were previously synced will remain. Users can remove the friends they’ve synced from the TikTok app, if they’d like.
Our guide will show you how to remove your synced Facebook friends from the TikTok app.
