Why Did I Get Random TikTok Notifications on My iPhone?

Asked By MellowGamer42 On

I just received two strange notifications from TikTok on my iPhone, even though I don't have notifications turned on for the app. The notifications said:

"You may like"
"The request was denied by service. The request to open 'com.zhiliaoapp.musically' failed."

I'm really confused and a bit scared that I might be getting hacked or something. When I clicked on them, nothing happened and they just disappeared. Can anyone explain what this means? Is it something I should worry about or is it normal?

"com.zhiliaoapp.musically" is just the internal name for TikTok, which was originally called musical.ly. It’s nothing to freak out about! Your phone just might have had a hiccup trying to open TikTok, especially if you clicked on a link from somewhere else. No need to worry!

I really doubt you're hacked. Remember, a phone doesn't get hacked the same way a computer might. The "com...musically" thing is just an app identifier; it doesn’t mean anything bad. It's odd that you're getting notifications since you don't have TikTok notifications on, but you should be fine!

I do have TikTok, but I still don’t get notifications and this notification felt super weird!
