A story saver that just works

Original quality

Stories are saved exactly as TikTok serves them: no re-encoding, no added logos.

Photo stories too

Photo stories download as image files, not screenshots.

No app to install

Works in Safari, Chrome and any other browser, on mobile and desktop.

Private by design

You don't log in, so nothing you save is tied to your TikTok account.

Can you save someone else's TikTok story?

Yes. TikTok doesn't give viewers a save button for stories, but a story downloader saves any public story as an MP4 or image before it expires after 24 hours. If a creator shares something worth keeping (a recipe, a tutorial, a moment with friends), downloading it is the only way to watch it again later.

Only want to watch, not save? The TikTok story viewer plays stories directly in your browser. For regular posts, use the TikTok video downloader, which also removes the watermark.

Frequently asked questions

How do I download someone's TikTok story?

Enter their username above, find the story you want and tap Download. Video stories are saved as MP4 files and photo stories as images.

Does the creator get notified when I save their story?

No. TikTok doesn't notify anyone when a story is downloaded, and because you're not logged in through Tikvue, your account doesn't appear in the story's viewer list either.

Can I download a TikTok story after 24 hours?

No. Once a story expires it is removed from public view, so it can't be downloaded anymore. Save stories you want to keep while they're still live.

What quality are downloaded stories?

Tikvue downloads the highest-quality version TikTok serves for the story, usually 720p or 1080p, with no extra compression.

Where do downloaded stories go on iPhone?

In Safari, downloads go to the Files app (Downloads folder). Open the file and use the share button to save the video to Photos.

Is it legal to download TikTok stories?

Saving public content for personal, offline viewing is generally fine, but the content still belongs to its creator. Don't re-upload it or use it commercially without permission.
