Hey guys it's Olivia and I'm back with another video.
So a few month ago TikTok came out with a playlist feature which is basically a way for you to organize your videos.
So for example on TikTok I do Transition videos and on occasion I'll also do
tutorials for how I do certain transitions. And so let's say someone is a new follower and
they see Transition Tutorial Number 25 and they comment on that video and they say,
"Can you do a tutorial for 'x' transition?" And let's say I've already done it, so then I'll reply and say,
"Oh I did that one; it's Transition Tutorial Number 7." Which is helpful, but then they have to scroll
through my whole page to find Transition Tutorial Number 7. Meanwhile if I could put
all of those videos into a playlist then I could just refer them to the playlist which is always
going to be at the top of my profile. So this new feature on TikTok wasn't available to everyone,
I don't know if it is currently available to everyone, but what I do know is I didn't have
access to the feature before, but I do have access to it now. So in this week's video I am going to
create my first playlist on TikTok and I'm just going to walk you guys through it.
But before we get into this week's video be sure to subscribe to my channel because I make new videos every Monday;
I make anywhere from TikTok related videos like this, to Uber Eats Driver videos,
to How To Make Money Online videos, and with all that being said let's get into this week's video.
So here we are on my TikTok profile and you can see at the very top above my videos it says,
"sort videos into playlists." So as I said I recently got access to this feature.
So if you don't currently have access to this feature, I don't know if this will help you, but this is how
the feature ended up showing for me. So a couple of weeks ago when I made my YouTube video about
TikTok Stories, I had logged into a different TikTok account of mine to see what a Story looks like
from a viewer perspective and not from the creator perspective. Then after I finished filming
that video and I signed back into my main account, the playlist option was there.
So if you don't have the playlist option; one thing you need to do is make sure you have a Creator account
and if the option still isn't there, try logging out and logging back in and see if it shows up.
It's not a guarantee but that's what made it show up for me. So now let's get into the tutorial.
So as I said you have to have a Creator account. So if you don't; click the three lines in the top right corner,
click manage account, and for mine it says "switch to Business account"
because I already have a Creator account, but yours should have the option to switch to a Creator account;
so do that first. Then different ways you can a create a playlist is; 1, on your profile it says,
"sort videos into playlists" or if you click the three lines and you go to Creator tools,
then General, there's Playlists and then you can create a playlist that way.
So, "How to create a playlist. Make your videos easier to find by sorting them into themed playlists.
Step One, name your playlist. Step Two, add videos to your playlist.
Step Three, decide on the order of your videos." So, start creating. So my playlist name is going to be
"Transition Tutorials." Next. So as you can see in the thumbnail of my TikToks I write if it's a tutorial
and if the writing isn't there then it's just a regular transition video.
So let me find my first ever one, go through, and check them all off.

So I've checked off all of my videos that I currently want to put in the playlist,
click next, and then time to reorder them. So currently they're in order from my most recent,
but I want to put them in order from oldest to most recent. So let me do that.
[♪♪♪]
Ok, so I now have them in the order that I want them to be in,
so now I'm going to click create playlist. So now as you can see, under my username
it says the name of the playlist; "Transition Tutorials." So if I go back to my profile
and let's say I click one of my videos that I just added to the playlist, it will have that playlist listed.
So then if I click it, it will take you to the playlist and then you can scroll through and pick one.
So now whenever someone sees that video whether it comes up on their For You Page,
or whether they click it off your profile, they'll be able to see that it's part of a playlist.
And if they select the playlist they'll be able to watch all the other videos if they would like to.
And now if someone asks me for a transition tutorial that I've already done, I can refer them
to the playlist that is always going to be at the top of my profile. And as you can see right there
it says "Transition Tutorials." So yes, that is it, it's very simple just compiling all of
your videos that are similar into one playlist so that people can find them more easily.
One thing about TikTok playlists though is each video can only be a part of one playlist.
So let's say you have a playlist called "Transition Tutorials" and then you just have another playlist called "Transitions,"
well the tutorials could also fit in that category, but you can't put them in both playlists.
So just a little heads up on that.
So that's all for this week's video I hope you enjoyed it, if you did give it a thumbs up.
