Step-by-Step Guide
You can use your Safari browser to get the best results.
Step 1: Get the shareable link from TikTok
Open TikTok, watch the video you want, and press the Share button (the little arrow). Tap on 'Copy Link'. You will see a notification saying the link is copied to your clipboard.
Step 2: Use Safari to get the video
Open the Safari app on your iPhone. Go to our TikTok video downloader page. Paste the link into the search box and press the Download button. Wait for the page to load your video options.
Step 3: Download and move to Photos
Tap 'Download'. Safari will ask if you want to download the file. Say yes. Once finished, tap the blue arrow at the top or bottom of your safari screen and select 'Downloads'. Tap the video, press the share button in the corner, and choose 'Save Video'. It is now in your Photos app!

Problem: Safari won't let me save to Photos
If you don't see the 'Save Video' option, you might be looking at a corrupt file, or your iPhone storage is full. Check your Settings to make sure you have enough free space. Restarting the phone can also help clear small bugs.
Problem: The video saves but has no sound
This is extremely rare. However, if the creator muted their video or the song was removed due to copyright on TikTok, the downloaded file will also have no sound. Try watching the video on TikTok again to see if the sound works there.
Safety / Legal Section
When you download videos to your iPhone, remember to keep them for personal enjoyment. Uploading someone else's videos to your own page is against TikTok's rules and could get your account banned.
