TikTok has a "Save video" button, but the creator can switch it off, and the saved clip carries a jumping logo. A link is always there, and with it you can download a TikTok video as a clean MP4 file through AIOVideoDL.
How to download a TikTok video
- Open the video in TikTok and tap Share, the arrow on the right.
- Choose Copy link.
- Open the TikTok downloader, paste the link and press Download.
- Choose the video, or the sound alone, and save the file.
Short links that start with vm.tiktok.com or vt.tiktok.com work too. The site opens them and finds the video behind them.
On a computer
Open tiktok.com in your browser, click the video and copy the address from the address bar. The rest is the same. A computer is the comfortable way to save many videos, because you can keep the downloader open in a second tab.
Only the sound
Many TikToks are known for their sound. When TikTok offers the audio separately, it appears in the Audio list and you can save it without the picture.
When a video cannot be downloaded
- The account is private. Only public videos can be reached.
- The video was removed or is not shown in the country of the server.
- It is a slideshow of photos. In that case the pictures are listed one by one.
Give credit when you share a video that is not yours. Naming the creator costs nothing and is fair.

In which quality is the video saved?
In the best quality TikTok offers for that video, usually 720p or 1080p.
