TikTok breaks up the analytics dashboard into three key sections:
Summary: An overview of the performance of your account regarding video views, followers gained and lost, and profile views in a specific time frame.
Content: Provides an overview of your video engagement, including information on views, likes, comments, shares and average watch time.
Followers Shows your breakdown of audience demographics (gender, top territories), and times when followers are most active
By analyzing section-by-section you get a detailed overview of your account performance and audience engagement.
