Of course, you can filter things out by following different creators and topics on your Following section, but the For You Page is still going to be a collection of recommended clips that the platform thinks you\u2019re interested in. In some cases, you might not fancy what the app is showing you and you\u2019ll want to look up something else instead. That\u2019s where the search comes in. Though, you may also want to delete that from time to time, just to keep things fresh. How to clear your TikTok search history Of course, you can turn off watch history altogether, but if you just want to delete the last week or so of searches then doing so is easy. You have two options for it, though. You can choose to \u2018clear all\u2019 and delete everything you\u2019ve searched for in a recent window, or you can just delete selected searches and keep some others. To clear everything, you just have to open up your search history and click \u2018clear all\u2019 at the very bottom. Though, to just remove selected searches, just press the little \u2018x\u2019 next to the term you\u2019ve searched for. Open up the TikTok app &#8211; Click the magnifying glass\/search bar at the top of the screen &#8211; Press the \u2018x\u2019 next to a specific term to remove it &#8211; Click the \u2018see more\u2019 option at the bottom to show all your searches &#8211; Select \u2018clear all\u2019 if you want to completely clear out your search history &#8211; Click the \u2018confirm\u2019 option once you\u2019re sure you want to remove it &#8211; Once you have cleared out your search history, your For You Page might get a bit of an overhaul right away and recommend more general videos \u2013 though, some of those previously watched clips might slip back in. It\u2019ll take a few watches on different types of clips to completely rework your FYP, but that\u2019s up to you.
