What is PFP on TikTok?
PFP is an acronym that stands for ‘Profile picture’. Yes, it’s quite an obvious one. While profile picture used to be a simple PP, on TikTok it has taken up the acronym of PFP. On other social media apps, the acronym also stands for ‘Picture For Proof’ which is basically asking a person to send them proof of what they are doing. However, that is mainly associated with Snapchat and IM apps.
Since TikTok is primarily a video sharing app, the PFP acronym only stands for ‘Profile Picture’.
