How to Fix ERR_UNTRUSTED_CERTIFICATE

Topic: TikTok Network Error Issues | Status: Updated

What is this error?

The "ERR_UNTRUSTED_CERTIFICATE" error occurs when your device does not trust the SSL certificate presented by TikTok's servers. This can hinder your ability to connect to the app or website securely, leading to network issues.

How to Fix It

  1. Check Date and Time Settings: Ensure your device's date and time are set correctly. An incorrect date/time can lead to SSL certificate verification failures.
  2. Update Your App: Make sure you're using the latest version of TikTok. Go to your app store and check for updates to fix any bugs that may be causing the error.
  3. Clear App Cache: For Android devices, go to Settings > Apps > TikTok > Storage > Clear Cache. For iOS, you may need to uninstall and reinstall the app to clear the cache.
  4. Check Network Connection: Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data to see if the problem persists. Sometimes, network issues can cause certificate errors.
  5. Disable VPN/Proxy: If you're using a VPN or proxy, try disabling it temporarily, as these services can interfere with secure connections.
  6. Update Device Software: Ensure your device's operating system is up to date. Updates often include security enhancements that might resolve SSL issues.
  7. Check Device Security Settings: Ensure that your firewall or antivirus software isn't blocking TikTok. Adjust settings if necessary to allow the app to function properly.
  8. Reset Network Settings: On iOS, go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. On Android, go to Settings > System > Reset Options > Reset Wi-Fi, mobile & Bluetooth.
