Look up someone’s all social media accounts by his/her phone number

If you know your friend’s phone number, you can make full use of TikTok’s sync contacts feature, which can sync your phone contacts to your TikTok account so that you can decide whether to follow them or not.

Take a look at how it works:

1. Add your friend’s phone number to your phone contacts.
2. Launch the TikTok app. Tap Profile at the bottom and Add friends.
   
3. Tap Find next to Contacts.
   
4. You’ll be redirected to your device settings where you need to grant permissions to allow the app to access your contacts.
5. Find friends and follow them.

Note that if your friend has toggled on the Private account, you may find it discoverable on the contact list. That’s because only users he approves can follow him and watch his videos, with a private account set.

If that’s the case, you can try Intelius’s reverse phone lookup tool, which generates a detailed report such as TikTok account, locations, criminal records, and more by searching with a phone number.

2. Tap Find next to Facebook friends.
