Computed 2026-09-02 from a sample of 31.

## Methodology

SocialCrawl reads the public like count for a curated basket of videos from well-known TikTok creators via the API endpoint /v1/tiktok/post, then ranks them by lifetime likes. 31 videos were ranked on 2026-09-02. The basket is drawn from videos already known to sit among the most liked, not an exhaustive scan of every video on TikTok, so it answers which of these has the most likes rather than surveying the whole platform. Captions are shown without a trailing hashtag dump, because creators pack discovery tags after the sentence; the untouched caption is kept in the snapshot alongside it. View counts come from the same call, so the most viewed video named on this page is the most viewed of these 31, not of TikTok as a whole. A previously record-holding video that TikTok has since removed cannot be ranked, because the API returns no like count for a deleted post, and this page never fabricates one. Every count is read live, never estimated.

## FAQ

### What is the most liked TikTok video in 2026?

As of 2026-09-02, Summer by leah halton is the most liked TikTok video, with 80 million likes. It is ranked live from public video data across 31 videos from well-known creators via the SocialCrawl API, so the number tracks reality rather than a stale estimate.

### How far ahead is the most liked TikTok?

By 21 million likes as of 2026-09-02. Summer sits on 80 million against 58 million for the runner-up, a video by Van Toan. Both counts are re-read daily, so the gap on this page is the current one rather than a figure typed in once.

### Is the most liked TikTok also the most viewed?

Not necessarily.

### What happened to Bella Poarch's most liked TikTok?

TikTok has since removed it. Bella Poarch's lip-sync to "M to the B" was the long-time like record, and Guinness World Records listed it as of January 2022, but /v1/tiktok/post now returns no like count for that video. This page ranks only videos that still publish a public like count as of 2026-09-02, and never fills a deleted post with an old number.

### How is the most liked video on TikTok calculated here?

Each video's public like count is read via /v1/tiktok/post, then the 31 videos are ranked by lifetime likes. The leader as of 2026-09-02 is Summer with 80 million. This is a curated basket of videos already known to be among the most liked, not an exhaustive scan of TikTok, and counts are read live rather than estimated.
