What Are Creator Playlists on TikTok?
Through TikTok’s Creator Playlist feature, creators can curate their content and categorize their public videos into various playlists. They can create playlists from existing videos on their profile or start a new playlist with a new video before posting. They can also keep building existing playlists by adding new videos they publish.
A creator’s playlists or video collections appear just above their content feed on their profile page. Viewers can browse the playlist titles by swiping left or right. When they find a collection they like, they can simply tap it to watch all the videos in the playlist.
Viewers can scroll through the videos in the collection and choose what to watch or watch them continuously one after the other.
Who Can Create a Playlist on TikTok?
If you’re wondering how to make a playlist in TikTok, take note that the feature has limited availability for now. You also have to meet TikTok’s minimum requirements to access the feature.
You’ll find the option to create a playlist on your profile page in the videos tab. When you tap the videos tab, you should be able to Sort videos into playlists. If you don’t see this option, you may ask if this means the feature is not available to you yet.
How Many Followers Do You Need To Create a Playlist?
Another question you may ask is, “How many followers do I need to access the Playlist feature?” Based on the limited availability of the feature to certain creators, it looks like the minimum requirement is 10,000 followers.
If you’re eager to know how to create a video playlist on TikTok but don’t meet the requirements, be patient. You can wait until the platform makes the feature available to more creators. In the meantime, continue doing what you do best to grow your following.
