You can opt for either a Private or Public account on TikTok. When you have a private account, only people who follow you can see your profile and videos. This article will show you how to unprivate your TikTok account.
If you have a private account, people cannot follow you unless you approve their follow request. So, having a private account lets you exercise increased control over who gets to see your videos. However, there are crucial drawbacks to having a private TikTok profile. Your profile and videos will not get much exposure if your account is private.
If you want your videos to get maximum possible exposure on TikTok, consider switching to a public account. Changing to a public account will also help you get feedback from a bigger audience.
Lets find out how to make your TikTok account unprivate.

Step3: Tap the three stacked lines in the top-right corner, then choose Settings and privacy.
Step4: Select Privacy in the ACCOUNT header.
Step5: Tap the Private account toggle to switch to a public account.
Step6: Confirm your choice by selecting Switch.

Others would now be able to download, duet, and stitch your videos if you have enabled those permissions in your privacy settings. Note that you can always switch back to a private TikTok account in the future.
