# TikTok username checker

Canonical: https://postmesh.app/tools/tiktok-username-checker

Type a username to check it against TikTok’s rules, then open its profile in one click to see whether someone already has it.

## How it works

The checker tests the handle against the username rules TikTok’s app enforces. Whether a handle is taken can only be seen on TikTok itself: this tool does not query TikTok for availability. It opens the profile for manual inspection instead.

Nothing you type is sent to PostMesh.

## Steps

1. Type the username you want.

2. Fix anything the checker flags.

3. Open the profile: if TikTok says it couldn’t find the account, the name may be free.

## Questions

### Why doesn’t it say whether the username is taken?

This tool validates syntax, not availability. Confirm availability in TikTok’s username editor.

### How often can I change my TikTok username?

TikTok lets you change it once every 30 days.
