Step-by-step guide to save TikTok videos on iPhone without watermark. Works on iOS 17 & iOS 18, no app required.
Saving TikTok videos on iPhone used to mean screen-recording with a watermark on top. Not anymore. Here's the cleanest way to save TikTok videos on iPhone in HD without any app from the App Store.
Step-by-step: save a TikTok video on iPhone
- Open TikTok and find the video you want.
- Tap the Share arrow on the right, then tap Copy link.
- Open Safari and go to tiksnaptok.com.
- Paste the link, tap Get Video, then tap Download HD.
- Safari saves the MP4 to Files. From there, long-press the file and tap Save to Photos — the video appears in your Camera Roll.
Why not just use TikTok's built-in Save Video?
TikTok's own download button burns the username and the TikTok logo into your video, which looks bad on Reels, Shorts, or Status. SnapTok pulls the original file from TikTok's CDN, so what you save is what the creator uploaded.
Does this work on iOS 17 and iOS 18?
Yes. The Safari download flow works on every iPhone running iOS 15 or newer, including the latest iOS 18 and iPadOS.
Can I save private videos?
No. SnapTok only works with public TikTok videos. If a video is set to "friends only" or private, no online downloader can access it.
