From Chaos to Calm: How to Disable Comments on TikTok Live Streams

Are you the type who doesn’t want to read the comments when watching TikTok Live? Yep, I feel you. This is why I have a simple solution for you.

Do these to get rid of comments on TikTok Live:

  1. Open a TikTok Live video
  2. Swipe to the right

No, really, it’s just two steps. You open a TikTok Live and swipe to the right to hide away the comments. Don’t believe me? Try it yourself!

Or, better yet, watch me do it below and follow along. 😀

Summary: In this article, I explain how to hide comments on TikTok Live in just two simple steps. 

I provide a step-by-step guide on how to do this by opening a TikTok Live video and swiping to the right. 

I also show how to bring the comments back by swiping to the left. Finally, I encourage readers to leave a comment if they need help with anything else.

Step One – Open the Live Section

Begin by opening TikTok and tapping the “Live” icon in the top-left corner of the feed. You’ll see it in the screenshot above, but it’s not hard to find.

2. Swipe Right on the Live Video

You’re on the Live page right now (yeah, that one above). And you’re watching a random Live video. Try swiping right (like in the image above).

What happened, are the comments missing?

As you can see, this will remove the comment section immediately. If you want it back, just swipe to the left and voila, the comments are back.

….

Yeah, that’s all… Just leave a comment below if you need help with anything else. I live in the comments section, so I’m always here. Cheers 😀

My name is Alex and I have a knack for social media in all its shapes and forms. I’ve dealt with such things for quite some time and I noticed that many people have issues with social media and technicalities.

Unforeseen errors, bugs, and other problems make their use of social media problematic. These things will be discussed amply in the guides on Whizcase.

I'll present the facts as they are, and offer quick and easy solutions for them.
