Geelark x TikTok Account Creation

Hi guys,
we are trying to create TikTok accounts at scale using Geelark & trying to target users in the United States (to promote our iOS app with content posted to warmed up TT accs). Tried all kinds of things but around 90% of accounts get (shadow)banned. Very few have survived so far and even those only get around 500-1k views mostly.
Anyways, trying to figure out what it is we are doing wrong. We really would like to use Geelark since we built an internal tool from which content, created by our VAs, gets posted to. Plus we use Geelark's automation scripts and VAs to warm up and keep the accs warmed up.
Since there is no rhyme or reason to the mass bans, I'm wondering what the major culprit here could be? Is it simply proxy quality? Do we have to do the warm up manually for the first 14 days? Are cloud phones ultimately a dead end with this type of thing?
I know most people don't share details here for obvious reasons but any nudge in the right direction would be greatly appreciated..

Try with a real phone

I got it working on two of my phones but we want to scale to hundreds of accounts since we are an app studio

Have you checked your proxy?
The purity of the proxy significantly impacts your account.

Then you need a few real phones

That's what I assume as well. On spamhaus they have very good spam scores, so is there another way to check their quality?

wait how? on the phone i heard it's advised to only have around 10 accs max since the accounts are all tied to the device id. or how do you run hundreds of accs on few phones? any tutorials?

Geelark is a waste of time. Wasted a lot of money on it. Best to use real phones.

Only rooted phones with good hide of root and events sent to touch sensor!
You can automate normal actions like scroll, like with adb or accessibility service, but these events have flag apps can check!
Touch event source: Injected, Keyboard or Mouse
You need real events from sensor and it's not accessible from not rooted device.
Registration is checking that

So has anyone actually figured out how to do geelark at scale?

We are in SF and know 2 founders who resell Geelark warmed up TT accs, so we know it's technically possible (just not sure if their customers get good reach or not)

Hard to say, but when you’re doing bulk signups + scripts + cloud phones it’s kinda asking for flags, so I’d drop the automation and run fewer accounts like real humans or just push content/ads on one clean account.

@GeeLark any idea?

This issue is related to several factors, including proxies, usage patterns, or whether your account has been previously restricted. It's best to use a 4G/5G mobile proxy. Use a quality proxy, regularly update your account, and consider using the latest version and Android for TikTok. For more specific support, you can contact GeeLark's support team on Telegram. Thank you!

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We realize we still have a long way to go, and we are open to all voices to helps us grow.

All you guys do is provide unspecific advice in the group that contradicts each other. Your help engineers in the Telegram group literally say different things and never provide any specific help. So, please suggest actual working proxies (feel free to DM)...

would love to hear more about this because I'm currently setting up on GeeLark. If it's a bad choice, your advice would really help save me a lot of time

Real iphones farm with SIM cards. Combined with clickers will give remote control for VAs same as Geelark. In addition you get automation for free for simple stuff like warmups.

Use physical devices. Tiktok detects geelark easily

90% of shadow bans are usually not due to proxies but to device fingerprinting and early automation.

TikTok is now heavily targeting:

Identical devices (cloud phone/emulator)

Repeated behavior patterns in the first 7–14 days

Accounts created in bulk from the same source

I will test:
10 real device accounts, 100% manual → compare survival rate with batch automation.

If manual accounts survive better, the problem lies in the device/automation layer, not the content.

Mass bans are rarely random, usually due to clustering.

Hi,

for long time i've been studying the algo antibot system for tiktok. they are able to check the wifi around you, check if the phone is in move using the gyroscope, noise around you, proxies, batterie, language, hours, career and 150 parameters.

between them, when you use a bot, a human has a specific manner of using their phone—tapping with varying pressure and moving in non-linear patterns. If your automation doesn't use Bezier curves or randomized offsets for every single touchpoint, TikTok’s kernel-level detection flags you instantly.

The truth is, Cloud Phones (ARM-based instances) are becoming a dead end for high-scale TikTok organic reach. TikTok can detect the absence of hardware sensors (magnetometer, barometer) and the "too perfect" network environment of a data center. Even with high-quality residential proxies, the hardware fingerprint of a virtualized device is a massive red flag.

If you're getting capped at 500-1k views, you aren't "shadowbanned"—you're simply being "ghosted" by the algorithm because it doesn't trust the device integrity. To bypass this, you need a setup that mimics Physical Device Farm isolation with synchronized hardware signals.

I’ve been working on a framework that handles all of these variables (gyroscope simulation, real-time carrier data, and human-like interaction patterns) which bypasses the current "mass ban" waves you're seeing on Geelark.

Feel free to reach out to me in DM. I can redirect you to a solution that already supports all these parameters and is currently scaling accounts in the US market without the 14-day manual warm-up headache.
