For most of us, TikTok no longer needs an introduction. It has taken the social media space by storm, so undoubtedly a lot of us out there would be quite familiar with how it works. Having TikTok on your TV is similar to having it on your phone. After that, it’s pretty much straight to laughing at funny videos or taking notes from a TikTok financial guru. But don’t worry if you need a bit more introduction and guidance, our article will show you how. We’ve listed a couple of different methods to get you started, depending on the TV’s model and year. There’s also a method of using Chromecast or AirBeam if you perhaps have an older TV that does not support the app.
Method #1: TikTok on Your Google TV or Other Android OS TV
The “watch now” button allows you to enjoy content without creating an account or logging into TikTok.
Method #2: TikTok on Your Samsung Smart TV
If you’re an owner of a Samsung Smart TV older than the 2018 model display, unfortunately, this method won’t work for you. Although, we have other solutions that might help. If you have a more recent model than 2018, follow the instructions below.
Method #3: TikTok on Your LG Smart TV
There are also limitations on LG TV models that are compatible with the TikTok app. Unfortunately, the app is not available on older models that are older than 2018 and lower than a webOS 4. If your model is compatible, you can follow the instructions below. Are the above methods not suitable for you? Perhaps, Google Chromecast will be handy.
Method #5: TikTok on TV Through Google Chromecast From Your Phone/Tablet
First of all, what is a Chromecast? It is a device that you can connect to your TV, allowing content streaming from your phone, tablet, or computer to the big screen. So this could well be the solution that can bring up your TikTok videos from your phone to the bigger TV screen. You will need the Chromecast device and an HDMI port on your TV to connect them up. After connecting the two, the setup for the Chromecast itself is pretty straightforward. You will need to download the Google Home app; if you are casting from a computer, you won’t need the Google Home app. After this, you simply go to the Google Chromecast website and follow the instructions. Once your Chromecast is set up, you can use it to enjoy TikTok on your TV.

Conclusion
Those are the ways that you can enjoy TikTok on the big screen. Simply by using the supported integrated app or using casting devices or apps. Hopefully, the mentioned methods will help get TikTok videos up in your living room for your whole family to enjoy.
