Sometimes, you find so many cool TikTok videos that you wish there was one way to create a playlist and save them all.

Well, fortunately, there is! You can manage videos and save them into a collection folder on the TikTok app quite effortlessly.

TikTok allows you to create a new collection of each video you like on the platform, and the best part is that it also lets all users manage their TikTok folders in an easy way.

So, if you are clueless about this feature, then worry not!

Today, we will be talking about:

  • How to make folders on TikTok;
  • How do TikTok folders work?;
  • How to use the collections feature on the TikTok app.

Can You Create Folders On TikTok?

Yes, you can create folders on TikTok! This feature, also called TikTok Collections and TikTok Creator Playlists, is a great way to gather your favorite TikTok videos in one place.

Therefore, you can make TikTok playlists with your favorite videos (mostly public videos) and then access these playlists quite easily from your profile.

Anyone can create a new collection and add videos to it on TikTok.

You can use the TikTok Collections Features as you please, so whether you want to add more videos or manage videos on it, then you are certainly free to do so.

How Do Creator Playlists Work On TikTok?

TikTok folders are actually a Collection Folder.

This Collections feature allows you to sort videos in an efficient way, but there are three things that you must know about it:

  1. Only public videos can be added to a new collection;
  2. You cannot share a collection folder on the TikTok app with other users - this feature can only be seen by you;
  3. You need to mark Favorite videos before being able to add them to a folder.

Other than that, when you create a playlist through Collections, you are able to add video, delete them, and manage them at your will within your account.

How to Make Folders On TikTok

Before you make a TikTok folder, it is important to remember that only your Favorite videos can be added to it.

This means that liked videos cannot be added to TikTok folders - you need to tap on the Favorites icon in order to add them there.

Thus, without anything more to add, let’s create Collections on TikTok right away!

Step 1: Launch the TikTok App On Your Phone

First and foremost, open TikTok on your mobile device as you normally do.

Then, go to your profile page by tapping on your PFP at the bottom right corner of the screen.

Step 2: Tap the Bookmark Icon and Select Collections

Once you are on your TikTok account, you will see the video tab, the heart icon, and more.

Here, look for the Bookmark icon, which is the icon that appears whenever you Favorite something.

Then, right next to your Favorite videos, select Collections.

Here, select “Create New Collection.” You will be prompted to a screen where you need to set the name of the Collection you are about to create.

Tap “Next,” and proceed with the following step.

Step 3: Add Videos to Your TikTok Collections

Now, you will be prompted to add videos to the collection.

Remember that you can add videos that you have marked as favorite before.

Once you are done selecting the videos, tap “Add videos,” and you will be good to go.

Worry not - you will be able to add more videos later in case you skipped one.

Step 4: Manage and Edit TikTok Folders

Now, the collection is already created, but you can manage the folder as you like**.**

You will see two main buttons here: the Manage Collection one, and the three-dot icon.

If you tap on the three dots, you will be able to delete the entire collection, and change the collection name.

You can also long-press a single video, tap Remove, and that will delete videos from the collection.

If you follow the above steps, creating a collection folder on TikTok will be as easy as you think, so go for it!

Can You Create Different Folders On TikTok?

Yes! You are not limited to just one folder on TikTok.

You can create different collections with unique videos and other purposes - and you can always just tap Remove to entirely delete a collection if needed.

All in all, this folder feature is great if you want to group certain content based on your personal taste.

That’s all for now! You are ready to make video folders on TikTok. For more TikTok guides, GrowFollowing has got your back!

FAQ

Can Other Users See Your TikTok Collection or Playlist?

No. According to the TikTok website, collections and folders are entirely private on TikTok. This means that your personal folders can only be accessed by you and no one else - there is no way to share them as well.
