Frequently Asked Questions

Tik4DL is a free web tool for downloading public TikTok content: videos without watermark, sounds as MP3, photo slideshows, stories, covers, profile pictures and captions. It runs in your browser, so there is nothing to install.

Yes, completely. There are no premium tiers, no daily caps and no sign-up. The site is supported by a few ads.

No. You only need the link to a public post. We never ask for your TikTok username or password, and you should never give them to any downloader.

Yes. Tik4DL fetches the clean original that TikTok stores before the watermark is drawn on, so nothing is blurred or cropped.

In your browser's download location: the Downloads folder on Android and computers, and the Downloads folder in the Files app on iPhone. Our device guides show how to move them to your gallery or Photos.

No. Tik4DL does not use your TikTok account, so nothing is linked to you. Please still respect creators and ask before reposting their work.

Downloading public videos for personal, offline viewing is generally tolerated, but re-uploading or using someone else's content commercially without permission can infringe copyright and TikTok's terms. Laws differ by country, so download responsibly.

The best TikTok has. When an HD version exists you will see a "Download HD" button (often 1080p); otherwise the standard MP4 is usually 720p.

Yes. Every result includes a "Download MP3" button when the post has a sound, or use the dedicated TikTok MP3 Downloader.

Yes. Photo posts are detected automatically. You can save each image separately or use "Download all images".

No. Tik4DL only works with public posts. Private, friends-only and deleted videos can't be downloaded by anyone.

Not at the moment. Tik4DL downloads one post at a time, which keeps it fast and avoids overloading TikTok.

No daily limit. To keep the service fair for everyone, very rapid bursts of requests are briefly slowed down.

Yes, in Safari on iOS 13 and later. Files go to Files → Downloads; open the video and tap Share → Save Video to put it in Photos.

Yes, in Chrome, Samsung Internet, Firefox and others. Install Tik4DL from the App page and you can share TikToks straight to it.

Yes. Copy the address of the video from tiktok.com, paste it into Tik4DL and the file goes to your Downloads folder.

Yes, as an installable web app. Open the App page to add it to your home screen. It is not in app stores, and any "Tik4DL APK" on other websites is not ours.

Make sure you copied the link from the Share menu and that it contains tiktok.com. Links that start with vm.tiktok.com or vt.tiktok.com are fine.

Some browsers play MP4 files instead of saving them. Long-press (mobile) or right-click (desktop) the download button and choose "Download link" or "Save link as".

Download links are valid for about two hours. Just paste the TikTok link again to get fresh ones.

The post may be private, age-restricted or region-locked, or TikTok may be temporarily rate-limiting us. Wait a minute and try again. If it keeps failing, send us the link through the Contact page.
