How to Download TikTok Videos on PC

While TikTok is primarily a mobile app, there are good reasons to download TikTok videos on your PC: editing projects, presentations, larger storage, or watching offline on a bigger screen. Here's what works in 2026.

Method 1: Using GetTikVideo (Recommended)

You can download TikTok videos on PC with GetTikVideo.com. No software installation needed.

Steps for Windows, Mac, and Chromebook

1. Open tiktok.com in your browser, find the video, and copy the URL from the address bar. Or open the video in the TikTok app on your phone, tap Share → Copy Link, and paste it on your PC.
2. Open gettikvideo.com in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge.
3. Paste the link, click Download, and choose your preferred format (HD MP4 No Watermark, SD MP4, or MP3).
4. The file downloads to your default Downloads folder (usually C:\Users\You\Downloads on Windows or ~/Downloads on Mac).

Method 2: TikTok Desktop App

TikTok has a desktop app for Windows available from the Microsoft Store. However, the desktop app has limited download functionality:

• Not all videos have the "Save video" option.
• Downloaded videos include the TikTok watermark.
• Some creators disable the download feature.

For watermark-free HD downloads, GetTikVideo works better.

Method 3: TikTok Web (tiktok.com)

You can browse TikTok in any web browser at tiktok.com. To save a video:

1. Open the video on tiktok.com.
2. Look for the download button (not always available).
3. If available, click it to save the video with watermark.

Tip: Even if TikTok's web version doesn't show a download button, you can still copy the URL and use GetTikVideo to download it.

Method 4: Browser Extensions (Use with Caution)

Some browser extensions claim to download TikTok videos. Be careful with these:

• Many are outdated and no longer work.
• Some may track your browsing activity.
• Chrome Web Store frequently removes non-compliant extensions.

A web-based tool like GetTikVideo is safer and doesn't need updates.
