Tokboard alternative: where to see top TikTok songs now that Tokboard is offline
Tokboard, the free “Top TikTok Songs This Week” chart, last refreshed its data on May 31, 2023 and stopped loading in December 2024. For a dated list of the songs behind top TikToks right now, use our free TikTok songs page. Below: what happened to Tokboard, a live preview, and the other free options, compared fairly.
Tokboard ranked songs by how many popular TikToks used them, with a weekly chart, monthly charts going back to early 2020, and lists of top and rising users. Archived copies show the chart refreshing normally in early 2022, stalling on November 21, 2022, getting one last update on May 31, 2023, and then staying frozen for 18 months while the site was still up. From December 21, 2024 on, archived visits to the chart return errors, and when we checked on Oct 26, 2026, the domain didn’t load at all. We found no shutdown notice from its maker, so we can’t tell you why it stopped.
Our TikTok songs page does a smaller version of the same job with current data. The TikTok niche samples behind it currently hold 216 TikToks with 10K+ views from 195 creators (updated Oct 26, 2026). 43 named songs and sounds came up, 4 of them in more than one top video. 78% of those videos use original audio instead, which is worth knowing before you build a video around a song.
As of October 2026, the other free places worth a look are Tokchart, Countik and the TikTok app itself. TikTok’s Creative Center showed no public songs list when we checked. Each is covered below, including its catch.
What happened to Tokboard
Dates come from archived copies of tokboard.com on the Wayback Machine and from our own check of the domain. Each row links its source.
| Date | What the record shows | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Jan 22, 2022 | The weekly chart reads “Last Updated 1/22/2022” in a copy archived the next day. The chart is refreshing normally. | Archived Jan 23, 2022 |
| Apr 9, 2022 | Another fresh update, archived three days later. | Archived Apr 12, 2022 |
| Nov 21, 2022 | An update that then sits unchanged. Copies archived from February to mid-May 2023 all still show this date. | Archived Feb 13, 2023 |
| May 31, 2023 | The last update. Every archived copy after it, up to December 1, 2024, still reads “Last Updated 5/31/2023” under the headline “Top TikTok Songs This Week”. | Archived Dec 1, 2024 |
| Dec 21, 2024 | The first archived visit that fails, with Cloudflare error 521: the site’s own server refused the connection (what 521 means). Archived visits to Tokboard pages through September 2025 fail the same way. | Archived Dec 21, 2024 |
| Oct 7, 2025 | An archived copy of one address on the domain (/datechecker) shows an unrelated Facebook Marketplace tool, not Tokboard. | Archived Oct 7, 2025 |
| Oct 26, 2026 | Our own check: tokboard.com has no address record, and www.tokboard.com returns Cloudflare error 1016, meaning Cloudflare can’t find the server behind the name (what 1016 means). | Our DNS and HTTP check |
Dates in the first column are the dates shown on Tokboard’s own chart or, for the errors, the Wayback Machine capture dates.
What we couldn’t verify. We found no announcement explaining why updates stopped or whether the site will return, and we can’t say who controls the domain today. Archived copies show what visitors saw, not what happened behind the scenes. If you ran Tokboard or know what happened, email us and we will correct this page.
What Tokboard measured, and why a frozen chart misleads
Tokboard (its About page says it was formerly called Tiktometer) kept a large index of popular TikTok videos and grouped them by sound. Its About page put the index at more than 80 million top videos and 5 million users, and called its play counts a close lower bound, since it kept only a subset of each sound’s popular videos. The weekly chart ranked songs by how many of those videos used them, with total views alongside.
The scale was large. The final weekly chart was led by “Love You So” by The King Khan & BBQ Show, counted in 990 popular videos with 946.2M views. Original sounds were ranked next to licensed songs: number four was an original sound with 314 popular videos. The data was solid enough for research. A November 2024 study on arXiv about how TikTok revives older songs used Tokboard data collected up to May 19, 2022.
None of that makes the chart current. Tokboard’s data is now more than three years old, and a song on TikTok can rise and fade within weeks. If a search result promises Tokboard’s top TikTok songs this week, it can only be showing the chart from May 31, 2023 or earlier. The archived monthly pages (for example, March 2020) are still useful as music history, not as trend data.

How to read it. 43 named songs and sounds came up, 4 of them in more than one top video. Tokboard’s top songs were each counted in hundreds of popular videos. In a sample this size, a song behind two or three top videos is already a signal, and a song behind one is a song that worked once. 78% of the videos here use original audio instead of a named song.
The full list adds the latest scan of TikTok’s US trending feed and shows where each sound came from: TikTok songs this week. By niche: Beauty TikTok trends.

Free places to find top TikTok songs (as of October 2026)
What each one shows for free, and the catch.
| Option | What it shows | Free part | The catch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Followlly TikTok songs page | Named songs behind top TikToks from our niche samples and the latest US trending-feed scan, with example videos and a link to each sound | All of it, no account | A smaller sample than a platform-wide chart, so fewer songs repeat |
| Tokchart | “Top Trending Audios on TikTok Today”: a 1–1000 trend score, videos per day (7-day average), views and growth. Dated Oct 26, 2026 when we checked | The first 25 of 1,000+ results, with many song and artist names hidden | More pages need a plan from $14.99/mo (Pro); country and audio-type filters need Business ($59/mo). Discovery is $149/mo |
| Countik songs list | A list of popular TikTok songs with a country picker, marked “Updated everyday” | The list and the country picker | Country filter only, no niche view. The same site sells TikTok followers, likes and views |
| TikTok Creative Center | TikTok’s free trend lists for advertisers, by region and period | Hashtag and video lists, logged out | When we checked, the old Songs address redirected to the hashtag list, and creators were marked “coming soon” |
| The TikTok app | Each sound’s own page, with the videos that use it | Free inside the app | One sound at a time; no ranking across sounds |

Which free option fits your question
- You want a chart of the whole platform. Tokchart’s free first page is the closest thing to Tokboard’s old chart: audios ranked by its own 1–1000 trend score, with videos per day over the last 7 days. Everything past the first 25 rows needs a plan, from $14.99 a month.
- You want one country. Countik’s songs list has a country picker. TikTok’s Creative Center filters by region too, but when we checked it listed hashtags and videos, not songs.
- You post from a business account. With a business account, TikTok only shows you sounds from its Commercial Music Library, which its help center describes as 1 million songs (article updated July 2026). Check a song inside the app before you plan a video around it.
- You want songs that fit your niche. Our songs page shows which niche sample each sound came from, and trending sounds by niche covers Instagram Reels as well as TikTok.
How to use a song list without chasing a dead trend
- Check the date before the songs. Tokboard’s headline said “this week” for 18 months after its data stopped. A list without a visible date and sample size can’t tell you whether a song is rising or finished.
- Open the sound and read two numbers. How many videos use it, and how old its top videos are. A modest count with top videos only days old means you are early. A huge count with weeks-old top videos means most of the wave has passed.
- Prefer songs from your own niche. A song behind a dance trend rarely carries a skincare tutorial. A song that already sits under top videos in your niche is a closer match to your audience.
- Don’t treat music as required. In our latest TikTok sample, 78% of the top videos used original audio: talking, voiceover or the creator’s own sound. Keep a voiceover version of the same video ready in case the song doesn’t fit.
- Put your key moment on the beat change. If you do use a trending song, find the moment everyone reacts to and put your own reveal there. Borrow the timing, not the video.
Where Followlly fits
We make Followlly, so weigh our view accordingly. The songs page, the TikTok trends page and the trend finder are free and need no account. If all you want is a weekly list of songs, that is enough, and you don’t need the paid app.
The app is for creators who want the same view for their own niche: top Reels and TikToks refreshed about once a week, the sounds behind them, competitors checked every 2–3 days and scripts built from their own numbers. It costs $29/mo early access ($39 regular) after a 3-day trial on the plan you pick (card required, cancel anytime).
