Quick answer

Copy the link in TikTok, paste it into Tiktokdow in Chrome, tap Download HD, and the MP4 saves to your Downloads folder and shows up in your gallery.

Open the downloader

Android makes saving videos easy: anything you download in Chrome lands in your Downloads folder and appears in your gallery automatically. Here's how to get a clean, watermark-free TikTok.

Step by step

  1. Copy the link in TikTok. Tap Share on the video, then Copy link.
  2. Open Tiktokdow in Chrome. Tap Paste in the box, then Download.
  3. Tap Download HD. Chrome shows a "Downloading…" notice at the bottom of the screen.
  4. Open it. Tap Open in the notice, or find it in your gallery or Files › Downloads.

Finding your video

  • Google Photos: Library › Download folder (under "Photos on device").
  • Samsung Gallery: Albums › Download.
  • Files by Google: Browse › Downloads.

Tips

  • Short links work. Links like vm.tiktok.com/… from the Share menu are fine.
  • Save data on mobile networks. Choose Download SD for a smaller file.
  • Make a ringtone. Download the MP3, then go to Settings › Sound › Phone ringtone and pick it from Downloads. Menus vary slightly by brand.

If the download doesn't work

  • Private or deleted videos can't be downloaded.
  • Chrome blocked the download? Tap the three dots › Downloads to check, and make sure Chrome has storage permission in Settings › Apps › Chrome › Permissions.
