Saving TikTok videos on iPhone usually means either living with the TikTok watermark or trusting random downloader apps. All Media Downloader gives you a third option: share directly from TikTok and save clean video to your Photos library.
Before you start
You need:
- All Media Downloader installed from iCloud
- An active Pro subscription and AMD key — see the setup guide
- iOS 15+
Download a TikTok video
- Open the TikTok video you want to save.
- Tap Share (the arrow icon).
- Choose All Media Downloader from the share sheet.
- Wait for AMD to finish — the video appears in your Photos app.
That is it. No copying links, no pasting into a browser, no extra apps.
About the watermark
AMD downloads the best quality TikTok exposes for that video. When the original upload allows a clean stream, you get a watermark-free file. Some videos — especially those with TikTok's baked-in branding on the source — may still include a watermark because that is what the platform serves.
For your own TikTok uploads, sharing from the app before TikTok re-encodes often gives the cleanest result.
Download TikTok audio only
If you only need the sound:
- Share the TikTok link to AMD the same way.
- When the shortcut offers format options (depending on your shortcut version), choose audio, or check your AMD DOWNLOADS folder in Files for an extracted track.
Audio files land in Files → On My iPhone → AMD DOWNLOADS, not Photos.
Tips for reliable TikTok downloads
- Use the in-app Share button — sharing from Safari with a copied link works, but the TikTok app share flow is more reliable.
- Public videos only — private or friends-only posts cannot be resolved.
- Keep the shortcut updated — TikTok changes their API often; install the latest from iCloud when prompted.
- Stable network — TikTok files can be large; Wi‑Fi helps avoid timeouts.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | What to try |
|---|---|
| AMD not in share sheet | Enable it under Share → Edit Actions → Favorites |
| Download fails | Update shortcut from iCloud; confirm Pro + key are active |
| Still has watermark | Source may only offer watermarked stream; try your own upload |
| Timeout on long videos | Switch to Wi‑Fi and retry |
