How to download TikTok videos: MP4 / MP3 / cover

Published 2026-07-14

Want to save a TikTok to your phone or desktop—or just the background music or cover? An online parser can do it without installing another app.

Steps

  1. In TikTok, open the video → Share → Copy link (short links like vm.tiktok.com, or the numeric ID after /video/, also work).
  2. Open the TikTok video download tool and paste the link.
  3. Pass the human check and tap Parse.
  4. In the results, choose:
    • MP4 HD / SD — save the video file
    • MP3 — extract audio
    • Cover — save the still image

Notes

  • Direct links expire; if a download fails, parse again on the tool page.
  • Intended for personal study / offline backup. Get creator permission before republishing, and follow platform rules.
  • Private or non-public videos often cannot be parsed.

Pair with comments

To read comments on the same video, use View comments in the download result, or start from the comments tool and jump to download from there.
