How To Add Another TikTok Account With Same Email:

No, technically you cannot create multiple accounts using the same email address on TikTok due to security and verification protocols they have in place.

However, there’s a workaround known as the “Dot Trick” that allows you to create multiple TikTok accounts using the same email address.

Here’s how it works: By adding a ‘dot’ (.) anywhere in your Gmail username before the ‘@gmail.com’, you can create what seems like distinct email addresses but directs to the same Gmail account.

For instance, if your original Gmail username is ‘[email protected]’, the altered version could be ‘[email protected]’. Notice that the Gmail address is essentially the same; only a dot is added in the new one.

TikTok will accept this modified email address with a dot during the account creation process, even though the mail system automatically ignores the dot in subsequent steps. This allows for multiple TikTok accounts while using the same Gmail account.

Now, let’s walk through the step-by-step procedure to create and add another TikTok account using this method:

Step 1: Open TikTok & tap ‘Me’ option

To start, visit the Play Store or the App Store and locate the TikTok app to check for any available updates. If an update is accessible, ensure to update the app. For optimal performance of this trick, it’s recommended to have the latest TikTok version installed.

Once you’ve checked for updates, open the TikTok app on your device and log in to the account where you intend to add another one. Enter the email address/username and password associated with that specific account.

After logging in, access your profile page by selecting the ‘Me’ option located at the bottom right corner of the home screen. Simply tap on “Me” to reach your account’s profile page.

Step 2: See your name & tap on > Down Arrow

Next, while on your profile page, focus on the top center of the screen. You’ll notice your account name positioned in the middle, accompanied by a small black ‘drop-down’ arrow located on the right side.

Click on this “drop-down” arrow to reveal a menu offering the option to add another account to your existing one. Through the ‘+ Add Account’ feature provided here, you can both create a new account or log in to an already established one.

Take care not to confuse the username with the account name. The username typically starts with a “@” symbol, while the account name does not. Ensure to tap on the account name displayed at the top edge of the screen, distinguished by a drop-down arrow.

Step 3: Tap on ‘+ Add account’

Following that, tap on “+ Add Account,” triggering a dialogue box to appear on the screen presenting you with the options to create a new account.

Among the various options provided for creating a new account, including signing up via Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc., opt to sign up with an email address. Choose the specific option labeled “Sign up with phone number or email.”

Step 4: Tap on ‘Sign up with phone or email’ & Choose Email

To initiate the creation of a new account using the previous email address, select “Sign up with phone or email.” Following this, input your date of birth accurately, ensuring the correct year, as certain features might be restricted to users who are 16+ years old.

Upon entering your birthday, the subsequent tab will present two columns. One column prompts for a phone number for new account verification, while the other requests an email address. For this step, specifically opt for “Email.”

Step 5: Set username & password & Add Email

Enter the desired username for this account and establish a password. Then, proceed to add your email address. Input the Gmail address into the space provided for the email.

Here’s the crucial part: You need to enter the previous Gmail address you wish to use for this account, but this time, incorporate a dot (.) within the username. For instance, if the prior Gmail ID was “[email protected],” for this account, input it as: “[email protected]”.

This action won’t require a new registration; instead, it will redirect to the same Gmail ID, excluding the added dot. TikTok acknowledges email IDs in this dot format, enabling you to create another TikTok account using the same email ID.

Once entered, double-check the details and tap on the red forward arrow located at the bottom.

Following this, solve the puzzle to complete the verification process and then confirm by tapping the ‘red tick’.

Step 6: The account is now added

Your new account has been successfully created and added to the app. To verify, navigate to the home page and tap on the ‘Me’ option to access your profile page. Then, tap on the drop-down arrow positioned alongside your name at the top center.

Here, you’ll discover all the added accounts. You can effortlessly switch between accounts with a single tap on the one you wish to access.
