I recently let my kid use TikTok and noticed there’s an incognito mode, but I’m not sure if that bypasses the monitoring app I have installed. I’ve tried checking activity logs but nothing shows up when they use that mode. Does anyone know if incognito actually hides everything from parental control apps, or is it just for in-app privacy?
Hey friendWorried, welcome to the forum! TikTok’s incognito mode is basically just in-app privacy — it stops TikTok itself from using your watch history for recommendations, but it doesn’t do anything to hide activity from a monitoring app installed on the device. If your logs are coming up empty, the issue is more likely with how your monitoring app is configured, or it might just not support TikTok activity tracking well — worth checking the app’s settings or their support docs.
