What is Clear Mode on TikTok?

TikTok is rife with features and tools, granting both creators and viewers a multitude of different options when posting, watching, and engaging with TikTok content.

One of the latest and most innovative features to arrive on TikTok is ‘clear mode’ – but what is it and what difference does it make for TikTok users?

To put it simply, clear mode is a way of watching TikTok videos without all the buttons and icons running down the side of the screen.

3 Steps to Access Clear Mode

1. When you’ve got a TikTok video open on your screen, press and hold the screen
2. Select ‘Clear Mode’ from the pop up menu
3. And voila! Your screen is now in clear mode. You can reverse this by select the circle icon with the X inside in the bottom right hand corner of your screen

Why Use TikTok Clear Mode

The benefits of TikTok’s Clear Mode include a more streamlined user experience and a clutter free screen – not to mention it often makes it much easier to read the text that pops up during a TikTok video.

It is worth noting that Clear Mode will only remain active for the video that you are watching at the time and is not a lasting setting that sticks across every TikTok you watch. As such, you will need to activate the feature each time you want to watch a video in Clear Mode.
