TikTok has an optional account setting known as Restricted mode. As the name suggests, the feature helps prevent the appearance of content that might not be suitable for younger age groups. It limits the content that involves violence, nudity, abuse, etc.
However, you might want to deactivate the age restriction feature if you want to enjoy all types of content that TikTok has to offer. In this article, you’ll learn how to turn off the age restriction on your TikTok account.
How to Turn Off Age Restriction On TikTok
Step 1: Launch the TikTok app on your device and head into your profile section by tapping Profile in the bottom right corner of the home screen.
Step 2: Tap the three-lined menu icon in the top-right corner of the interface.
Step 3: Tap Settings and privacy.
Step 4: Select the Digital Wellbeing option under the CONTENT & ACTIVITY section.
Step 5: Select the Restricted Mode option and then tap “Turn off Restricted mode”. Now you will be asked to enter a passcode to confirm your decision.
The passcode will be the same that was used at the time of the activation of restricted mode on your TikTok account. If you are a teenager and your parents have set the passcode, you may consider asking them about it.
The restricted mode will be deactivated as soon as you enter the correct passcode. Afterward, you will be able to view all types of content on TikTok without any restrictions.
Can You Turn Off Restricted Mode On TikTok Without Password?
As of now, it is not possible to turn off Restricted Mode without passcode.
When you have initially enabled the Restriced Mode, you might have set up a passcode. Evertime you enable/disable the feature, the passcode is required.
Now, you might be wondering, what if I forgot my password? Do I need to use TikTok with Restricted Mode enabled?
Unfortunately, TikTok has no option to reset the passcode. The only thing you can do is to contact the TikTok Support Team.
