Open the intended video

Open TikTok, check the creator and video, and select the Comments button.

Find Upload photo

Look beside the Add comment box for the Upload photo icon. TikTok provides this feature only in select regions.

Allow photo access if asked

Choose the narrowest photo-library access that still lets you select the intended image. You can change this later in the phone's privacy settings.

Choose the picture

Select one photo from the device. Check that it contains no private notification, address, account number, or location detail.

Post the comment

Select Post comment. If TikTok warns that the comment may be inappropriate, review the image and cancel if it could violate the creator's or TikTok's rules.

Verify or remove it

Confirm that the picture appears under the correct video. If it is wrong, open the comment menu and delete it promptly.

If it does not work

  • If Upload photo is missing, update TikTok and check another post; the feature may not be available in your region or on that account.
  • If the photo picker is empty, open the phone's privacy settings and allow TikTok access to the selected photo.
  • If the creator has disabled or limited comments, you cannot add a photo comment to that video.
