New Tools Make the TikTok For You Smarter, Safer and More You

In a time when algorithms are shaping everything from trends to tastes, social media feeds shape what users watch, think and even care about. TikTok knows that, and it’s making the For You experience more personal than ever.

Starting today, TikTok is rolling out the latest updates that build on its existing tools and safeguards, making the For You experience more relevant, empowering, and transparent:

  • Manage Topics: A new tool to dial up or down how often users see content tied to popular categories like Travel, Creative Arts, Nature, and more.
  • Smart Keyword Filters: AI-powered controls that not only block specific keywords, but also intelligently filter out related terms and synonyms.
  • A new Educational Guide: A simplified resource that brings together all the ways people can understand and fine-tune their feed—with fresh explainer videos launching globally.

These build on TikTok’s existing suite of tools and safeguards, from “Why this video” explanations and the option to “refresh” a FYP, to restrictions that limit repetitive or age-sensitive content.
