Question for those shadowbanned since May/June 2026

Since my account got hit with "Abnormal Interaction" and 0 views, I noticed I'm stuck in Business/Creator mode.

  1. Promote button appeared on my profile

  2. TikTok Shop got connected without my permission

  3. There's no "Switch to Personal account" option anymore in settings

Did your account also get forced into Business mode when the shadowban started?

The craziest part - I have the Promote button but it doesn't work. So I'm forced into Business mode but banned from using Business features. TikTok literally locked me in a shadowban cage. Anyone else?

Tiktok Shadowban

Did anyone's account fix itself after 1-2 months?

How long did it take you to escape? It's been 1 month for me.

Did you do something to escape?

Does anyone know how long it will take to go back to normal?

Tiktok Shadowban

I've been shadowbanned since May 31st and I've tried literally every "fix" out there.

Has anyone's account actually recovered after that long? Or what ended up working for you?

I'm losing hope here...Would really appreciate any real advice.

Advice?

Has anyone else experienced a complete view collapse since May 31?

​

I'm trying to figure out whether this is a bug, a shadowban, or something else.

​

My account had normal reach until May 31. Then overnight my views dropped from thousands to almost nothing.

​

Current situation:

​

5000+ followers

​

New videos get around 20-50 views

​

No active violations shown on the account

​

No warning messages from TikTok

​

Followers can still see and like my videos

​

Old videos still receive likes and favorites every day

​

The strange part is that it doesn't seem to matter what I upload.

​

I've tested multiple content types:

​

Concert videos

​

Pet videos

​

Other unrelated content

​

No matter what niche or topic I post, TikTok does not seem to distribute the videos. Almost every upload gets stuck at roughly 20-50 views.

​

For example:

​

A concert video received 33 views after more than 24 hours

​

A completely different cat video received only 31 views

​

I also had issues with TikTok Promote. One of my videos was rejected for promotion, which made me wonder if there is some hidden restriction or flag on my account, even though TikTok shows no active violations or warnings.

​

Because different topics perform almost identically, I don't think this is a content-quality or niche issue.

​

Is anyone else still dealing with this after May 31?

​

If your account recovered:

​

How long did it take?

​

Did you do anything specific?

​

Did TikTok ever acknowledge the issue?

​

Thanks.

Advice?

Since May 31, my views dropped dramatically and new uploads were getting almost no reach. I also started having problems with Promote, including rejected campaigns.

Yesterday I uploaded a new video and after about 23 hours it reached 22 views. I know this is still extremely low compared to normal, but it is higher than some of my recent uploads that were getting almost no views at all.

Has anyone else experienced a very slow recovery like this? If your account eventually recovered, did it start with small increases in views before returning to normal?

I'm trying to figure out whether this could be an early sign of recovery or just random fluctuation.

Tried in-app help for 17 days. Only automatic replies.

​

Screenshot attached showing the drop.

​

Anyone had this and fixed it?
