How do you schedule TikTok posts with PlatPost?

By Guy Hamilton, founder of PlatPost. Last updated .

The short answer

Connect your TikTok account, give PlatPost one idea, and approve the drafts it writes in your voice. Drag a draft onto a day, tick TikTok, and PlatPost posts it at the time you chose.

What you need to post to TikTok

One account per workspace. Every post needs a video or photos.

Open Connected Channels and press Connect next to TikTok. You sign in on TikTok itself. PlatPost never sees your password.

How to schedule a TikTok post

The steps are the same for every network.

  1. Connect your TikTok account in Connected Channels.
  2. Open Create, type one idea and pick a tone. PlatPost writes three drafts in your own voice.
  3. Edit the drafts, fill any gap, and keep the ones you like.
  4. Drag a kept draft onto a day on the calendar and tick TikTok.
  5. Set the time. PlatPost posts it then, and the calendar shows that it went out.

TikTok limits that PlatPost checks

The text limit PlatPost uses for TikTok is 2,200 characters. The composer counts as you type.

Every TikTok post needs an image or a video. PlatPost stops the post before it is saved if none is attached.

Post to TikTok and your other networks together

One idea can go to TikTok and to any of the other 15 networks in the same step. Each post is written for its network, never one text copied across.

When you tick more than one network, the composer counts against the tightest limit, so the post fits everywhere you send it.

The route PlatPost uses

PlatPost posts to TikTok through the route the network approves for apps. It never uses scraping or a copied browser session, because that can get an account restricted.
