How to download TikTok videos
- Copy the link. On the TikTok, tap Share (the arrow) and choose Copy link.
- Paste it here. Tap Paste above. The box turns TikTok cyan when it recognises the link.
- Save the video. Tap Download, then Save to phone. Pick HD, a smaller size or MP3.
Short links from the app (vm.tiktok.com) and full tiktok.com links both work.
What is a TikTok video downloader?
A TikTok video downloader is a tool that saves a TikTok to your device as a normal video file. TapDL works in your browser: paste the link, and it fetches the video from TikTok and gives you an MP4 you can keep, edit and share. It also works as a TikTok to MP3 converter for sounds.
Download TikTok videos without watermark
When you use TikTok’s own Save video button, TikTok burns a moving logo and username into the file. TapDL asks TikTok for the video file itself and offers the cleanest version available, which is usually the one without that logo. Please keep crediting the creator when you share.
Save TikTok videos on iPhone, Android and PC
iPhone: use Safari, tap Save to phone and choose Save Video; it lands in Photos. Android: tap Save to phone and find it in Gallery or Downloads. PC or Mac: copy the address from tiktok.com, paste it here and click Download; the MP4 goes to Downloads.
TikTok to MP3: save TikTok sounds
Choose MP3 audio on the result card to keep only the sound: voice-overs, original audio or a song clip. It’s handy for edits, language practice or ringtones. Most popular songs on TikTok are copyrighted, so use TikTok’s sound library when you post.
TikTok download formats
| Option | File | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| HD video | MP4, up to 1080p | Reposting your own videos, editing |
| Smaller video | MP4, lower resolution | Saving space, sending in chats |
| MP3 audio | MP3 | Sounds, voice-overs, ringtones |
Repost TikToks to Reels or Shorts
Creators often post the same video everywhere. Download your own TikTok here, then upload it to Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts. Using the clean file looks better and avoids the reach drop some platforms give to videos carrying another app’s watermark.
TikTok to MP4
Every TikTok downloads as MP4, the format that plays on phones, computers and TVs and imports into every editor. TikTok videos are usually 1080 × 1920 when the creator uploads in HD; TapDL lists the highest version first and smaller sizes after it.
Is it legal to download TikTok videos?
Saving TikToks for personal viewing is common and generally fine in many countries; reposting someone else’s video without permission can break copyright and TikTok’s terms. Download your own videos freely, and ask creators before reusing theirs.
Back up your own TikToks
If TikTok is where you post first, keep a copy of every video you publish. Accounts get hacked, banned by mistake or simply deleted, and drafts disappear with them. Paste each of your video links into TapDL and save the HD file to your phone or a cloud folder, so your best work is never locked inside one app.
TikTok not downloading?
- The account is private, or the video is friends-only.
- The video was removed or is not available in your region.
- You pasted a profile link: open the video and copy its link.
- Photo slideshows: these are image posts, so not every one can be saved as a video.
Also saving from Instagram? Try the Instagram Reels downloader.
