How to Recover a Streak on TikTok

Streaks is a nice feature on TikTok, but since it is not available to everyone, many users have questions about it, especially how to recover a Streak on TikTok.

Stripes on TikTok help you stay connected to the people you message most. When you exchange messages with someone for three consecutive days, a Streak badge will appear in your chat, tracking how many days you’ve maintained that message chain.

This Streak badge grows as you continue messaging the app every day. If a day passes without notice, the badge will turn gray, indicating that the Streak is in danger.

If no messages are exchanged within the next 24 hours, the Streak badge will disappear completely. Luckily, TikTok gives you the chance to restore certain Streaks, especially if they’ve been active for a while.

How to Recover a TikTok Streak

To help you keep track, TikTok will alert you when you earn a new Streak or when an active Streak is about to expire. However, if you lose a Streak, it’s very easy to recover it. Here’s how to do it:

Open the chat where the Streak was lost.
In the chat, tap ‘Restore’, then press ‘Restore’ again to confirm.

Please note that this feature is not yet available to all users and can only be used within 48 hours of the end of the Streak. If you don’t see the restore option, it probably means the time frame has expired.

TikTok also limits the number of restores you can use at once, so it’s best to stay consistent with messages if you want to avoid losing your Streak.

When a Streak is restored, it will resume for the same number of days as before. For example, if your Streak ended on day 10, restoring it will bring the badge back with a 10-day registration so you can pick up where you left off.
