1. Saving Your Own Videos in Drafts

rnA Tiktok video in draft form can easily be saved to your iOS or Android phone a few simple ways. First, open the Tiktok app and then tap the icon in the bottom right corner to reach the profile page. The Drafts folder will be shown there. You can access videos you have created but not yet published by clicking on that Drafts folder. Once you find the video you want to save, select it and put some edits on it and maybe a short description. Before publishing you will probably be able to choose Save to Device. If you choose that, your video will instantly save to the gallery on your phone.

2. Use iOS Shortcuts

rnAnother sneaky way for iOS users to download Tiktok videos without a watermark is by using the Shortcuts feature. First, make sure you have Shortcuts downloaded from the App Store. Next, find a shortcut specifically for the purpose of downloading Tiktok videos from a reputable source, such as an internet forum or a website that lists shortcuts. Open the Tiktok video you would like to download, click the share button, select the Shortcuts icon, and run the shortcut you previously installed. This is going to remove the annoying Tiktok logo on the video and save the video directly to your photo gallery.

That way, you can watch your favorite videos whenever you want, even without a connection.

4. Using the screen recording options of Android or iOS

rnIt is really simple to download videos from Tiktok - especially if your device has screen recording options built-in. Nearly every smartphone has this option, on both iOS and Android. Your first step is to ensure Screen Recorder is in your Control Center or shortcut menu. Then you need to play the video you want to save in the Tiktok app. Turn the screen recorder on, wait for the video to finish, then turn it off again. The video will be properly recorded in your phone's gallery as a normal video file. With this option you have created your own library of Tiktok videos, and you do not need to install a 3rd-party app.
