How to save a TikTok video on iPhone
Updated: 2026-10-21
Many videos have no save button inside TikTok. Paste the public link into TikTokView to keep an MP4.
Copy the link
In the TikTok app, tap Share and copy the link. Short vm.tiktok.com links work too.
Save in TikTokView
Paste the link in Safari or the TikTokView app and pick an MP4 quality. Videos are saved to Photos.
Audio only
Choose MP3 to save the sound in the Files app. Private videos cannot be saved.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a Shortcut?
No. The link is enough.
The video is not in Photos?
In Safari, check Downloads. In the app, allow photo library access.
Is the watermark always removed?
A public no-watermark stream is preferred, but the mark can remain if TikTok does not offer one.
