Dueting on TikTok is an incredibly enjoyable experience. It’s just as entertaining to watch others participate in duet challenges posted by famous TikTokers. But what happens if you come across an impressive original video and want to see all the duets created with it? Is there a way to do so? Let’s find out!
Exploring someone’s duets
Naturally, you’d want to watch all the popular duets made on a video by a well-known creator. Unfortunately, TikTok doesn’t offer a search feature specifically designed to find all duets associated with a particular video from a specific creator. However, there is a workaround to discover popular duets with a specific creator. Here’s how:
- Open the TikTok app and tap on “Home”.
- Locate the magnifying glass icon at the top right corner of the page and tap on it to access the Explore feature.
- In the search box at the top, enter “duet @” or “#duet @”. The order of the keywords doesn’t matter as long as you include both “duet” and the “username” of the original creator.
For example, if you want to find the duets with the user “themermaidscale”, search for “duet @themermaidscale” in the search box at the top and tap on “Search”.
The results will be shown based on the popularity of the duet among TikTok viewers. However, please note that there won’t be any classification based on the specific video with which users have chosen to duet. So, if you’re hoping to find all the duets with a particular video by the creator, you might end up slightly disappointed.
To view more results, tap on “Videos” on the navigation panel at the top and scroll down to explore further.
Discovering duets with yourself
If you’re interested in seeing the duets made with your own original video on TikTok, follow these steps:
- Launch the TikTok app and tap on “Home”.
- Look for the magnifying glass icon at the top right corner and tap on it to access the Explore feature.
- In the search box at the top, enter “duet @” or “#duet @”. As before, the order of the keywords doesn’t matter as long as you include “duet” and your username.
For instance, if your username is “baobeibonita”, you can enter “#duet @baobeibonita” or “duet @baobeibonita” in the search box at the top and hit “Search”.
The results will display all the popular TikTok duets made with your original video. However, it’s important to note that your own duets with others won’t show up in the search results. Therefore, if you’re not particularly popular, the top results might mostly feature your own user profile or content related to the keywords in your username.
To explore more results, tap on “Videos” on the navigation panel at the top and scroll down to view additional content.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a duet on TikTok?
A duet on TikTok is an interactive feature that allows you to create content in parallel with an original video uploaded by a creator. It also gives you the option to upload a video and invite others to duet with you. When you duet with someone, their video appears on a split-screen alongside yours. Once the original video ends, your video also ends automatically. In essence, dueting on TikTok enables you to work together with an existing video and add to it without taking anything away.
Please note that duets are different from the Stitch feature on TikTok, which lets you use 5 seconds of someone else’s video as the introduction or preface to your own video.
Can you find all the duets with a specific video on TikTok?
Unfortunately, TikTok doesn’t have a feature to satisfy our curiosity for devouring all duets made with a particular video. The only way to search for duets with a specific user is to use the duet hashtag with the username in the TikTok search. However, this will only show you the hottest duets made with the videos uploaded by the username you searched for, without listing results based on specific criteria like the video or sound used.
In short, if you wish to find a duet with a particular sound, you’ll have to manually search for it within the results. Good luck!
However, you can explore duets by trends or keywords. For example, if you want to watch popular duets on the song “Dandelions” on TikTok, simply enter “duet Dandelions” in the search box.
To do this, open the TikTok app, tap on “Home”, then locate the magnifying glass icon at the top right corner and tap on it to access the Explore feature. In the search box at the top of the page, enter “duet Dandelions” (or any trending duet challenge by keyword) and hit “Search”. The results page will show a list of duet challenges posted by influencers on the app.
To view more results, tap on “Videos” on the navigation panel at the top and scroll down to explore further.
Will the original poster know if someone duets with their video on TikTok?
No, the original poster won’t receive any notification when someone duets with their video. Imagine the overwhelming number of notifications creators with a massive follower base would receive if they were alerted every time someone dueted with their content!
Additionally, TikTok does not currently offer a provision for creators to be notified when someone duets with their video. You can adjust the privacy settings for your profile and videos under “Settings and privacy” to receive notifications, although this feature does not pertain specifically to duets. It’s also worth noting that if you come across a video without the duet feature enabled, it’s because the original poster has disabled it.
Now that you know how to explore duets on TikTok, go ahead and have some fun creating and watching duets with fellow TikTokers!
