To begin, launch the TikTok app on your mobile device. Navigate to the profile icon and tap on it, which will direct you to the login screen. From there, select the «already have an account?» option. Next, choose the «use phone/email/username» option. If you initially signed up using an email or another method, you'll need to select that option next.
