Remove the link in TikTok's bio editor
To remove a Lemon8 link from your TikTok bio, open TikTok, go to your profile, tap the pencil icon next to your name to edit your bio, and delete the link text. The link will disappear once you save the changes. If the link appears as a clickable button rather than text, tap it to select it, then delete it the same way.
The exact steps depend on whether you added the link as plain text in your bio or whether TikTok automatically created a link button when you connected your Lemon8 account. Both methods use the same bio editor, so the removal process is identical either way. On most phones, the pencil icon appears to the right of your username at the top of your profile page.
After you delete the text and tap Save or Done, the change takes effect immediately. Your profile will refresh and the link will no longer appear to other users or to you when you view your own profile.
Key Takeaways
- Open your TikTok profile, tap the edit icon next to your username, and remove the Lemon8 link text from your bio field, then save.
- If Lemon8 appears as a separate button below your bio text, you may need to disconnect your Lemon8 account in TikTok settings rather than just deleting text.
- Removing the link from your bio does not delete your Lemon8 account or disconnect it from TikTok entirely — it only hides the public link.
- If the link reappears after deletion, disconnect Lemon8 from your connected apps in TikTok settings to prevent it from being added back automatically.
- Changes to your bio take effect immediately once you tap the save or done button.
Disconnect Lemon8 from your TikTok account if the link keeps reappearing
If you delete the link but it reappears in your bio, Lemon8 may still be connected to your TikTok account. Open TikTok settings, tap Account, then Connected Apps or Linked Apps (the name varies by device and TikTok version). Find Lemon8 in the list and tap Disconnect or Remove.
Disconnecting Lemon8 from TikTok prevents the app from automatically adding the link back to your bio. This is different from removing the link text itself — disconnecting stops TikTok and Lemon8 from sharing account information between the two apps. After you disconnect, wait a few minutes and refresh your profile to confirm the link is gone.
If you see Lemon8 listed under Connected Apps but the option says "Connect" rather than "Disconnect," then Lemon8 is not currently linked to your account, and you can simply delete the link text from your bio without taking any further steps.
What happens after you remove the link
Removing the Lemon8 link from your bio does not close your Lemon8 account or affect your Lemon8 profile. People who visit your Lemon8 account directly will still see your content there. Only the shortcut link in your TikTok bio disappears.
Your Lemon8 followers will not be notified that you removed the link. If someone has already bookmarked your Lemon8 profile or saved your username, they can still find you on Lemon8 without the link in your TikTok bio. The link removal only affects new visitors to your TikTok profile who might have used the shortcut.
If you later want to add the link back, you can reconnect Lemon8 in TikTok settings or manually type the link into your bio again. There is no penalty for removing and re-adding links, and you can do this as many times as you want.
Remove the link on mobile versus desktop
On mobile, tap your profile icon at the bottom right of the screen, then tap the pencil icon next to your name. Highlight and delete the Lemon8 link text from the bio field, then tap Save or Done. The process is the same on both iPhone and Android devices.
On desktop, go to your profile by clicking your profile icon, then click the edit button. Delete the link from the bio field the same way you would on mobile. Desktop TikTok has the same bio editor as mobile, so the steps are nearly identical. Click Save or Done when you are finished.
If you are using TikTok on a web browser, the bio editor may look slightly different, but the function is the same. Find the bio text field, remove the Lemon8 link, and save your changes. The link will disappear from your profile across all devices within a few seconds.
Troubleshooting: the link won't delete or keeps coming back
If the link will not delete, try closing and reopening the TikTok app completely. Sometimes the bio editor does not respond properly until you refresh the app. On desktop, try a different browser or clear your browser cache and cookies, then log back in to TikTok.
If the link reappears after you delete it, Lemon8 is likely still connected to your account. Go to Settings > Account > Connected Apps and disconnect Lemon8 there. Wait a few minutes, then check your bio again. If the link still appears, try disconnecting and reconnecting Lemon8 in the same menu, or contact TikTok support through the app if the problem persists.
In rare cases, TikTok may have a temporary glitch that prevents bio changes from saving. If you have tried all the steps above and the link still will not go away, log out of TikTok completely, wait 10 minutes, and log back in. Then try editing your bio again.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does removing the Lemon8 link delete my Lemon8 account?
No. Removing the link from your TikTok bio only hides the shortcut. Your Lemon8 account remains active, and your content stays on Lemon8. People can still find your Lemon8 profile if they search for you directly on the Lemon8 app or if they already have your Lemon8 username saved.
Will people still see my Lemon8 profile if I remove the link?
Only if they search for you on Lemon8 directly. Removing the link from your TikTok bio means new visitors to your TikTok profile will not see a shortcut to your Lemon8 account. Existing followers who already know your Lemon8 username can still find you on Lemon8.
Can I remove just the Lemon8 button without editing my bio text?
If Lemon8 appears as a separate button below your bio, disconnecting it in TikTok settings should remove the button. If it appears as a link within your bio text, you need to delete the text itself. Check your Connected Apps in settings first to see if disconnecting solves the problem.
What if I want to add the Lemon8 link back later?
You can reconnect Lemon8 in TikTok settings under Connected Apps, or manually type the link into your bio. There is no waiting period or limit on how many times you can add and remove the link.
Why does the link keep coming back even after I delete it?
This happens when Lemon8 is still connected to your TikTok account in your settings. TikTok automatically re-adds the link when the connection is active. Disconnect Lemon8 in Settings > Account > Connected Apps to stop this from happening.
