TikTok Zero Views - Don't panic - Seems It's TikTok problem

[Lukmat]

Currently it's working on iOS and Xiaomi in my case, but no matter what I can't make it on Pixel phones
But what I am reading on reddit subforums about TikTok, this is global problem not only with new, but also with older accounts.

Our set ups are correct. Even legit users getting 0 views on fresh accs, some very big publishes dropped from thousands/views to 50 or 0 views.
So I think it's on their side, they were testing something and screwed their own platform.


"same. went from 380k to 82 views. i can’t claim the coins too. i think it’s tiktok glitch(?)"
"nope. usually got at least 500 views. saw some posts here that ppl experienced this too, so yea.. i think it’s tiktok problem "
"For the last week views have been down across the board for damn near everyone. It’s super frustrating especially when you work on TikTok"
"Happening to me as well, only difference is I am getting 0 views. Videos are taking ages to process, and it keeps saying my videos aren’t eligible for the fyp"
"i’m so sick of this app. my videos are only being pushed to my followers again. is anyone else experiencing this? usually get about 1000 views a video, now i’m lucky to break 40. no my content hasn’t changed. ugh."
"Yes. I have 63k followers. It’s happening to me and all my friends. Some videos won’t break 200. Very discouraging."
"yess it happened to me today too!! i have 9.5k followers and usually get thousands of views"
"Just posted a video 4h ago. 0 views and "under review/process". I never had this issue since mid 2022"
"Same here. Trying to upload my first video. Second attempt 30 hours ongoing.."
"Why do I have zero views even after posting a vid almost 7 hours ago?"


So don't panic, your set up is correct. It's not like TikTok made it agressive to kill "spam" set ups. Everyone have temporary problem

No, this is exactly the fight against spam. If it was a mistake, it would have been fixed a long time ago.

 

[Salamouna]

So now they detected that android version an won't work anymore

... and now again I have views on that Pixel. After 24h account.
Also if view stucks, my clients who also have Pixel told me to delete video, upload video, delete video, upload video until it start to get instant views and... It's working
So no, this is glitch.

The threads you are quoting are from a few weeks ago right? TikTok changed something back then and everyone was getting 0 views, but that was fixed already, so isn't relevant to what the problem is now.
This is currently definitely an anti spam test by them, I don't see any new threads on any TikTok subreddits about it, so it isn't a mainstream problem.

I've had zeros since November 3rd. 1.5 months tick tock can't solve the problem?

I don't think so, apparently the nuts are turning with spam and you need to look for a workaround

With EU or US accounts? EU spam has been impossible since around November on new accounts, it seems they are rolling out the same thing to the US now as well

On European accounts. On the usa +- well everything is fine, but I need Europe specifically

 

[LaNegraSombra]

I have been experiencing this problem for about 2 weeks, since then all the accounts I open in the USA remain at 0 visits. Before, it happened once in every 4 times, now it is always, and there is no way. I have tried everything, I have tried moving the SIM to other phones, I have tried changing the SIM (I have already bought 2 more, and in my country the ones from the USA are very expensive, about 33 dollars), I have tried changing to WIFI from my parents' house, etc... Always doing factory resets. I have tried changing emails, using other providers, using aliases... Nothing has worked for me, and after a while I started to see on the forum that there were some people who are experiencing the same thing. I think that we are indeed facing an attack against spam, since it only happens to those of us who do this type of things. Good luck to everyone, let's hope we can solve it.

I am reading the thread


It's 9 pm here and I am sittinig here from 7 am. Created someting like 50 different accounts
-all my methods
-different sim cards, no sim cards, vpns, proxies, mobile proxies, different routers, different phones (Pixel, Graphene OS, iPhone 8, iPhone SE 2020, Xiaomi Redmi 9T)

All I managed to get is 40 views and stop, then dead.
I am getting little views on iOS but then it's killed. On Android totaly zero views now.

My clients are doing TikTok and I asked 10+ people to do it:
-Italy, Spain worked yesterday, today totaly stopped, same 0 views issue
-Romania, Czech, Germany were killed 1 week ago
-it's starting the same in the USA for last 2 days
-some guys were able to manage it yesterday (for Italy), today it's totaly killed
-some guys still manage it to get working, but success ratio is much much lower for them
-one guy faced the same, he started to get views on ... 5 days account but I think it's not the solution, views should be instant

-------------------------------------
What I think, tiktok managed to exploit Android and iOS:
-to get into cellural info they should not get as normal app
-to get into phone producer IDs like IMEI, IMSI, they should not ge as normal app
-to get SIM card info what they should not have access as normal app


It's not they not like VPNs, proxies, local connection. They managed to get to info from device inside. Android and iOS systems can get location via A-GPS, it's system level location based on cellural towers and nearby wifi neworks. No app should have access to that.
I can be sure it's not VPN, proxy, local connection because if I create account with my local SIM card. Everything works and connection doesn't matter.
It looks like they have info, that we don't have SIM card or our SIM card is not correct with nearby cell tower networks / IMEI / IMSI.



So what next?
1. If that is not bug, we cannot do anything and ... it's over until Apple and Google find out they done something really fishy with their privacy and update system
2. We can wait and test it in few days if that is no bug


I will be testing it for next few days, but now I feel like someone just kicked me in my head.

What you say about the local SIM makes a lot of sense to me, as just last week I tested it and put a SIM from my country that I bought in a store into the same phone. I created two accounts, the first one had 0 visits and the second started with 800, as it should be (for some strange reason, it's common for me that the first account usually gets no visits). I deleted the account and thought "it must be a matter of luck", so I switched back to the US SIMs. So far, I've opened about 16 accounts, all with 0 visits, on different mobiles, ISPs, and SIMs.
I accessed one of the old accounts that I was able to open before this happened, and each video I upload now gets 0 or 40 visits. To clear up any doubts and contribute something, when I finish dinner I'm going to restore the same device and put back a SIM from my country. I'll let you know here in a while whether I manage to open an account or not.
My problem started exactly on December 5th, almost 2 weeks ago. I was going crazy, and it seemed like there were few of us affected.

My old accounts from my country work fine (Spain).
By the way, we have the same time slot.

My problem started yesterday. For the USA. Also from my clients, it's started yesterday for the USA. One buyer is targeting Romania, it started for him 2 weeks ago. Then it was slowly spreading around other european countries.

TikTok does access all of that information for registering devices, the only thing I'm not sure about is location data and specific sim card data. They do track IMEI and whether you have a sim card, and what region that sim card belongs to, etc.

This is bullshit, apps haven't access to IMEI and such things. They received such info in Android 10 and Google fixed that in Android 11.
It's fight between TikTok, Apple and Google.

Sometimes I think, Apple and Google should just ban TikTok for finding system loopholes. I would give them a lesson to fix their fckin malware app.

Maybe I was going off old information since it apparently hasn't been possible for awhile now.

For example, zeros on the video because of the sim. Then every account would have zeros. Why does it happen that some accounts have views?

Also, a week ago on my iPhone, restarting the device helped. That is, I made 1 account, uploaded a video, deleted the tick tock, restarted the iPhone, and on and on in a circle. But now it's not working anymore either. Does restarting the iPhone change any data?

 

[ofjerigoreig]

Also if you upload a video via pk, there are views 16 out of 16 accounts, checked personally

I register an account from my iPhone, upload one video - zero views.
I login to the same account from a PC, upload another video and it has views.

 

[Vlad2012]

Shit, I closed new accounts that had 0 views... by the way it gives me new subscribers on a fake influencer girl account and o views on the videos?
There is also a thread here https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/tiktok-and-0-views.1552231/page-3

I don't think they are tracking any device specific data like that, it seems random for me. It's like some accounts are under review or something after creation and get shadow banned for a while. I can factory reset an iPhone and create max 2-3 new accounts and get views like normal, after that 80-90% accounts get shadow banned, some don't though. Then repeat the steps and I get views again, but that's kind of pointless for automation. On android, not sure, as I always had issues with it and they share way more data.

I think they have some other data saved on the phone or keychain, that doesn't get removed unless you factory reset.

Has anyone tried using an older version of the app?
