Many of you might have come across that Tiktok is showing you the same videos. But why? This has been the question that most people are wondering about. Well, nowadays, we invest a lot of time on social media platforms. Tiktok is such an application where we can showcase our skills and entertain others and can learn from them as well, in exchange for some monetary earnings and fame. But, how is it now related to the same videos that keep appearing on the screen of the device?
Tiktok shows the same videos as it takes information from the user data and personalizes what a user watches on his ‘For You’ page. That’s not the only thing. It also considers the videos which you like, dislike and even the ones which you watch until the end. However, there are ways by which you can change the content type.

Tiktok Showing The Same Videos Explained
As mentioned above, Tiktok shows the same videos based on what you see on the platform. It just copies the activities of a user on the application itself and brings him to the same interested ones.
In case you aren’t aware of what user data is, it’s all about your activities (the videos you watch the most, least, ignore, messages, etc) and shows you the videos based on that. The other name for this is ‘cookies’. Well, it’s not a that bad thing as it focuses mostly only on the ones that you are interested in.
However, if you are bored with the same kind of videos that are appearing on your Tiktok, you can make changes as well. Haven’t you noticed ‘Forced Recommendation.’ What’s that? Those are the videos that are completely different from the type of content you watch on Tiktok. On the other hand, one can also delete the cache files for generating a new type. In case you don’t know how to clear cache, follow the steps mentioned below:
1. Open your Tiktok account on the device.
2. Select the three lines on the top of your screen. Where? On the right side.
3. Scroll down until you see the Clear Cache option and click on it. That’s it.
If you are still bored with the same videos that are shown on Tiktok, you can change it. There are several ways for that. You can start liking different videos, follow various types of accounts for different content, and even use the not-interesting option.
