How to Pin a Comment on TikTok

Open the comments on your own video, tap and hold the comment you want, then tap Pin. The comment moves to the top of the thread and stays there for every viewer. You can pin one comment per video and swap it any time.

Worth knowing
- Only one comment can be pinned per video.
- Pinning works only on your own videos.
Doing this for a brand, not just an account?
A pinned comment is free real estate for a CTA or a top answer, and reviewing comment sections regularly is part of running an account professionally.
Common questions
Can I pin more than one comment on a TikTok video?
No, TikTok allows one pinned comment per video. Pinning a new comment automatically replaces the current one.
Does the commenter know their comment was pinned?
Yes, they receive a notification that the creator pinned their comment. Other viewers just see the Pinned label at the top of the thread.
Why can't I pin a comment on TikTok?
You can only pin comments on videos you posted yourself. If the option is missing on your own video, update the app; the feature lives in the tap-and-hold menu, not the comment's three-dot menu.
