TikTok has launched a new search guide to help users in Pakistan access verified and up-to-date information during the ongoing monsoon flood season.
This new feature for floods is part of TikTok’s ongoing efforts to promote safety and combat misinformation, especially during natural disasters.
When users search for flood-related content on TikTok, a prominent banner will appear. It will encourage users to verify information through trusted sources.
The guide also provides direct access to the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), allowing users to receive official updates and alerts about natural disasters in Pakistan.
The guide includes links to TikTok’s Safety Center and the “Tragic Event Support” guide. These resources offer practical help for people affected by distressing events. Users will also find tips on how to share or report sensitive content responsibly.
The guide clearly explains what qualifies as a “tragic event,” covering everything from natural disasters to personal loss. It also shares ways to access mental health support and encourages thoughtful engagement during difficult times.

By partnering with frontline institutions and highlighting reliable resources, we aim to help our community make informed decisions and stay safe.”
This new guide reflects TikTok’s broader mission to promote trustworthy information and create a safer digital environment for its users.
By integrating these tools directly into the user experience, TikTok continues to offer meaningful support and reliable information.
The platform remains committed to empowering users to stay informed, care for their well-being, and engage responsibly during key moments.
