There is no one answer for this question – it can depend on a variety of factors, including device configuration, network conditions, and app functionality. However, in general, TikTok counts views as soon as the video has been played completely (regardless of when it was actually viewed). This means that if your video takes a little longer to load than usual because it’s being processed by the app on your device, TikTok will still consider it a view. Temporary delays are usually just due to overloaded servers or traffic congestion; they won’t really affect how many views your videos receive.
