• 📈200-view jail occurs when a video passes the initial check but doesn't perform well with the first sample audience, preventing further distribution.01:49
• 🔍To fix zero-view videos, first wait 24 hours, then perform an account health check in TikTok Studio to identify policy violations or glitches.02:42
