How Do I Remove A Comment On TikTok LIVE?
The comment section on TikTok LIVE is unique, because it’s more of a chat than a static comments section.
Because of this, there’s no way to delete a comment that you’ve posted to a TikTok LIVE.

How Do I Edit A Comment On TikTok?
There’s currently no way to edit a comment that you’ve posted on TikTok, whether it’s on your own video or someone else’s.

How Do You Know If Your Comment Was Deleted On TikTok?
If you remember posting a comment on someone’s video, but aren’t seeing it when you visit their page anymore, there’s a chance it was deleted.
However, it might not always be the case. Here are a few reasons why your comment might not be appearing, and what to do in each case.
Your Comment Got Filtered
Sometimes innocent comments can get picked up by TikTok’s spam filters, or by specific filters set by either the creator or yourself.
If this is the case, all you can do is try commenting again with a different phrase and see if your comment actually appears this time.
Your Comment Never Got Posted
If your internet connection is laggy, your comment might not have been submitted when you posted it.
Try posting it again from a different device or stronger connection.
Your Comment Was Actually Deleted
Let’s say your comment was actually deleted - now what? First, reflect on why this might be the case. Did you use words that TikTok might consider inappropriate? Was your comment needlessly negative?
If you’re certain that none of the above are true, maybe the creator simply removed all comments or turned them off for their video.

On Someone Else’s Video
