There are two ways to save videos on TikTok. The first is by saving them directly to your device, the second is by adding them to your Favorites to refer to later.
Here's how you can find saved videos using each of the methods.
To View Videos Saved To Your Device
Downloading TikTok videos using the Save Video option sends them directly to your device. When you save a TikTok video using this method, you can find it within your gallery or camera roll, depending on the type of device you have.
On iOs
Open the Photos app.
Any videos saved to TikTok should appear in your camera roll.
On Android
Open the Gallery or Photos app.
Your downloaded TikTok videos will be saved in a folder named TikTok or in recent downloads.
To View Favorited Videos
When you bookmark videos using the Favorites icon, you can add them to collections for later reference. You can view saved TikTok videos by accessing the Favorites section in your profile using the steps below.
Log in to your TikTok account and open your profile page.
Tap the Favorites icon that appears to the right of the Reposted icon.
From here you'll see all your favorite videos.
To View Liked Videos
Rather than download TikTok videos or use the Favorites feature, some users prefer to save videos by liking them.
You can view all the videos you've Liked on TikTok by following the steps below.
Log in to your TikTok account and open your profile page.
Tap the Likes icon that appears to the far right.
From here you'll see all videos you've Liked.
