Duets are a great way to switch up your TikTok content and collaborate with friends and even influencers. Here’s how to duet someone on TikTok.
If you’ve spent any time on TikTok at all then you’ve more than likely seen videos where multiple clips are stacked next to each other in a variety of different layouts, showing people dancing, singing, and talking with other users. This feature is called a ‘duet.’
A duet on TikTok refers to when a user films their own video alongside another user’s original video as a way to either respond, react, or add something new.
Some people have used the feature to participate in virtual vocal duets — or even choirs — with each video being a new vocal line or instrument.
If influencers or famous TikTokers have allowed duets, it also means you are able to technically appear in a video alongside your favorite creator, and sometimes they may even end up seeing and reacting to it.

How to film a TikTok duet with audio
Some people may have discovered that when they film a duet, they cannot be heard over the original video, but this issue can be resolved quite simply.
- Open the duet screen as normal.
- Before recording starts, select the microphone option from the sidebar.
- If there is a diagonal line through the mic symbol, it means you are muted, and if you record, only the sound of the original video will be heard.
- If the symbol does not have a line through it, when you record your footage you will be able to also record your voice along with the original audio. TikTok recommends using an earpiece to improve audio quality when recording.
TikTokers have found an array of creative ways to use the duet function, and knowing the different options that are available makes the process a lot smoother.
