Lesson 7: Device setup and tools

Hello everyone, this is LeadRock!

In this lesson, we’ll cover the settings you should use for uploading traffic from Android and iOS devices. You’ll learn how to bypass TikTok blocks in Russia and which parameters to set for successful account access.

We’ll also recommend a few additional useful services to help with TikTok traffic.

iOS Settings

The iPhone is the recommended device for uploading traffic with TikTok. It transmits less data and grants fewer permissions to third-party apps, and uses a different API, which helps prolong account longevity.

Here’s what settings you should use:

SIM card: disabled
Region, language, and time: set according to GEO
Geolocation: disabled
Find My iPhone: disabled
iCloud Backup: disabled
iCloud Drive: disabled

Additionally, keep only the local GEO language in the keyboard layout and remove all checkmarks in the “Dictionary” settings.

It is recommended to reinstall the app from the App Store every 2 accounts and reset network and location settings. Failing to do so may result in quicker account bans.

Android Settings

While Android devices are less ideal for uploading traffic, they can still be used. Remember to reset network and app settings regularly and reinstall the TikTok app frequently.

Here’s what settings you should use:

SIM card: disabled
Region, language, and time: set according to GEO
Geolocation: disabled

Reinstall the app every 2-5 accounts. Also, before reinstalling, clear Google Services through system settings, including:

com.google.android.gms
com.android.vending
com.samsung.android.ipsgeofence

A Few Words About VPN Services

Regardless of the platform, we recommend changing your IP address each time you reinstall the app. This usually happens automatically, as VPN services often change the IP address when reconnecting.

Recommended VPNs:
