Is your TikTok acting sluggish lately?
Before you blame your internet connection, it might be worth checking your cache.
I recently noticed TikTok can take longer to load videos and using up an unexpected amount of storage space.
Clearing the cache solved both issues in seconds.
Plus, it only takes a few taps to complete.
