TikTok Shadowban Checker
Enter a public TikTok username to compare the views of its newest videos with the videos before them, and see whether new videos look held back from the For You feed.
Up to 5 checks per tool, per 24 hours from the same IP address. Refreshing a result counts as another check.
Views that suddenly stop
The For You feed is how a TikTok video reaches people who don’t follow the account. When new videos stop getting there, their views fall far below the account’s usual numbers. The checker compares the newest videos with the ones before them, so a drop like that stands out.
Newest videos against earlier ones
The median views of the 3 newest videos that are at least two days old are compared with up to 9 videos before them.
Zero-view videos pointed out
A video that still shows 0 views two days after posting is flagged, so you can check it in the app.
Where to confirm it
TikTok’s Account status and Account Check show strikes and whether your videos are restricted from the For You feed.

What TikTok itself shows you
TikTok has its own places that explain limits on an account.
Account status
TikTok added it in 2023 to show an account’s standing. A strike expires from the account’s record after 90 days.
Account Check
Since 2024, Account Check reviews your account and your last 30 posts, and shows whether content is restricted from the For You feed or features like comments are limited.
Notices and appeals
TikTok says it tells creators when an account is restricted from For You recommendations, and the decision can be appealed.
About this free tool
What is a TikTok shadowban?
It is the common name for videos that quietly stop reaching the For You feed, so they get far fewer views than the account’s usual videos. TikTok’s Account Check shows when content is restricted from the For You feed.
How does this TikTok shadowban checker work?
It reads the public views of up to 12 recent videos, leaves out pinned videos and videos younger than two days, and compares the median views of the 3 newest videos with the videos before them. A fall of more than 65% is a drop worth watching, and a fall of more than 85% is a sharp drop.
Can the checker prove a shadowban?
No. A weaker video, a new topic, or a quiet time to post can also mean fewer views. Only TikTok knows where a video was shown, which is why the result points you to Account status and Account Check.
How long do TikTok strikes last?
TikTok says a strike expires from an account’s record after 90 days. Account status shows the strikes an account has.
Why does a new video show 0 views?
A video can show 0 views for a short time after posting. If it still shows 0 views two days later, open it in the app and check Account status.
Is the account owner notified?
No. The checker only reads public numbers. Nothing is followed, liked, or sent to the account.
