About a year ago when TikTok refugees first started flooding into Xiaohongshu, I posted here offering to help. Since then I’ve gotten a lot of questions from new users.

I finally went back and updated my beginner guide to cover everything I’ve learned from helping people over the past year — signing up, changing language, searching with Chinese keywords, posting your first note, shopping tips, privacy settings, cultural etiquette, and more.

Here’s the link: https://www.moranfong.com/rednote-beginner-guide/

I’m Chinese and have been using Xiaohongshu for years. If you have any questions about using the app, feel free to ask in the comments — I’ll do my best to help.
