A missing button does not prove that your app is broken or that your account has a restriction. First check the comments on one of your own regular videos. Do you not see an option to pin a comment there? There is no confirmed way to make that option appear.<\/p>\n<p>Below, you will read what you can check and where you can put important information instead.<\/p>\n<nav aria-label=\"Table of contents\">\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"#waarom-geen-pinoptie\">Why is the option to pin TikTok comments missing?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#eigen-video-controleren\">Check whether you can pin comments on your own TikTok video<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#app-of-account\">No pin option on TikTok: is it the app or your account?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#alternatieven\">What can you do instead of pinning a TikTok comment?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#vragen\">Questions about pinning TikTok comments<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/nav>\n<h2 id=\"waarom-geen-pinoptie\">Why is the option to pin TikTok comments missing?<\/h2>\n<p>It has not been confirmed that everyone can pin comments on regular TikTok videos. You therefore cannot assume that your account is missing a button that should be there.<\/p>\n<p>Do you see an old guide in which someone pins a comment? That does not mean it can also be done on your video now. Also check whether the guide concerns regular videos, LIVE or ads. These are different situations, for which the same steps do not necessarily apply.<\/p>\n<p>TikToks <a href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.tiktok.com\/say-more-in-the-comments?lang=en\">post about new comment features<\/a> does not confirm that manual pinning is back or has been removed. That post is therefore not proof that TikTok has officially removed the feature.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"eigen-video-controleren\">Check whether you can pin comments on your own TikTok video<\/h2>\n<p>Start with a video that you posted yourself and that already has comments. You do not manage the comments on someone else&#8217;s video.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Open your own regular video.<\/strong> Do not use a LIVE or ad for this check.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Open the comments and view the options for a comment.<\/strong> Look for an option to pin it. The controls may differ, so do not expect exactly the same buttons as in an old guide.<\/li>\n<li><strong>If necessary, check a second video of your own.<\/strong> Check whether the option is missing there too.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Is the option nowhere to be found? Then choose an alternative.<\/strong> Repeating the same action will not make the feature available.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Can you reply or delete a comment? Then those actions work. That does not mean you should also be able to pin comments.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"app-of-account\">No pin option on TikTok: is it the app or your account?<\/h2>\n<p>Check whether only pinning is missing or whether more is going wrong. If comments do not load or the app freezes, general checks are useful.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>What do you see?<\/th>\n<th>What can you do?<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Comments work, but the option to pin them is missing.<\/td>\n<td>Put your important information somewhere else. This missing option alone does not indicate a general app error.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Comments do not load or the app freezes.<\/td>\n<td>Check your connection. Close the app and open it again. Also check whether an official update is available.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>You receive a notification about a restriction on your account.<\/td>\n<td>Read the notification and follow the help provided with it. Do not assume that this is related to the missing pin option.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Reopening or updating the app can help with a general outage. It does not automatically restore a missing feature. Clearing temporary app files, often called \u2018clearing the cache\u2019, or reinstalling the app also does not guarantee that you will be able to pin comments.<\/p>\n<p>Do you want to report the problem to TikTok? Note which phone model and app version you use. Describe what you see and mention that it concerns comments on your own regular video. This makes it clearer what is happening than simply saying \u2018pinning does not work\u2019.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"alternatieven\">What can you do instead of pinning a TikTok comment?<\/h2>\n<p>Where you should put the information depends on what you want to tell people:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A detail about a new video:<\/strong> put it in the description or in the video itself. Think of the amount of an ingredient or the location of a walk.<\/li>\n<li><strong>An answer to one question:<\/strong> reply directly to that comment. This keeps the question and answer together. Your reply will not thereby be fixed at the top.<\/li>\n<li><strong>An explanation for multiple viewers:<\/strong> make a short follow up video. Give the answer immediately, so someone can understand the explanation without the earlier video.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Information about your entire profile:<\/strong> put it in your bio, the short text on your profile. This is less suitable for a detail that concerns only one video.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A fictional example: you post a video of homemade pancakes but forget to mention the amount of milk. Answer a question about it directly. In your next recipe video, put the quantities in the video itself. Viewers will not then have to search through the comments.<\/p>\n<p>Do you want to remove unwanted comments instead? In the <a href=\"https:\/\/support.tiktok.com\/en\/using-tiktok\/messaging-and-notifications\/comments?lang=en\">TikTok guide on managing comments<\/a> you can find options including deleting and filtering. These features do not help you pin a useful answer at the top.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"vragen\">Questions about pinning TikTok comments<\/h2>\n<h3>Can I still pin comments on TikTok?<\/h3>\n<p>There is no definite yes or no that applies to all regular videos and accounts. Check which options you see on your own video. If pinning is missing, there is no confirmed workaround for doing it anyway.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I pin a comment on someone else&#8217;s video?<\/h3>\n<p>No, you do not decide which comment appears at the top there. Even if you wrote the comment yourself, that does not mean you manage the video.<\/p>\n<h3>Do I need to use another app to pin comments?<\/h3>\n<p>No. There is no confirmed solution through another app or service. Do not give your password or login code to a service that promises to make the feature available.<\/p>\n<h3>What if another TikTok feature is missing?<\/h3>\n<p>Then read more about <a href=\"https:\/\/volgers-kopen.io\/waarom-kan-ik-geen-tiktoks-naar-vrienden-sturen\/\">not being able to send TikToks to friends<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/volgers-kopen.io\/waarom-geen-video-10-minuten-tiktok\/\">not being able to make a 10 minute video on TikTok<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/volgers-kopen.io\/waarom-kan-ik-niet-zoeken-op-tiktok\/\">not being able to search on TikTok<\/a>.
