Now lots of folks have posted online saying they haven't access to trickster and other voice effects. If you find yourself in that boat, the internet has come up with some solutions to fix it.

User samxnthx_walked people through the process of fixing the issue if they have an iPhone. They said to go to settings on your phone, go to storage, scroll down, then offload TikTok. Now a key point: Save any drafts of TikToks you want to post before this because it will delete your drafts. They said to wait about a half hour, download TikTok again, log in, and you should be all set with voice effects. Basically, this seems to be a hard reset to get the latest voice effects.

If you're having issues with the effect on Android, unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a good fix yet. But just hold out and usually these things get fixed with time.
