Here's how to download TikTok videos; A complete step-by-step guide

Goes without a doubt, TikTok is one of most popular social media platforms. It's popular for its mini videos, allowing users to binge watch multiple in one go. However, have you ever come across a TikTok video that you absolutely love and wish to keep on your phone? While TikTok does not provide a direct "Save Video" feature, there are simple methods you can use to download and store TikTok videos on your device.

Whether you want to cherish a memorable moment, share a TikTok with offline friends, or ensure you have access to a video even if it's deleted from the platform, we bring you a step-by-step guide.

How to download TikTok videos?

Open the TikTok app on your smartphone and navigate to the video you wish to save.

Look for a white arrow icon located on the left side of the screen. Tap on it to reveal sharing options for the TikTok video.

Among the sharing options, you should see an upside-down arrow labeled "Save Video." Tap on this icon to initiate the download process.

If the download is successful, you will receive a notification confirming that the video has been saved to your phone's photo library.


It's important to note that not all TikTok videos can be saved. The ability to download a TikTok video depends on the preferences of the user who posted it. If the "Save Video" option does not appear when you tap the sharing icon, it means that the TikTok user has disabled downloads for that particular video.

However, if you encounter a TikTok video that you desperately want to save but the option is not available, you can still resort to screen recording. Simply activate the screen recording feature on your device while the desired TikTok video is playing, and the recording will be saved to your phone's gallery.

Now that you know how to download TikTok videos and save them to your phone, you can easily preserve your favorite clips, share them with friends who don't have the app, or enjoy them even if they are no longer accessible on TikTok. Happy TikTok downloading!
