How to Download TikTok Videos on PC or Mac with Watermark
#1 If there is a built-in download feature…
Several factors contribute to TikTok's dominance, one of which is sheer shareability. On the platform, anyone can download TikTok videos with sound anonymously, regardless of trending or new.
Steps:
- Find a TikTok video you want to download on your computer.
- Simply right-click it, and choose the “Download video” option. The TikTok video will be saved to MP4 Instantly.
#2 If downloading is disabled…
The absence of the "Download video" button indicates that the user has disabled "Allow your videos to be downloaded" in TikTok settings. Even in this case, you can still use the Chrome Developer Tool to complete the TikTok video download on PC or Mac with watermark.
Steps:
- Visit tiktok.com in web browser. Open a video, click on the empty area and select "Inspect".
- When the Developer Tool opens, the "Elements" section will appear. You should click the right double arrow and switch to the "Network" tab.
- From the new tab, click “Media”.
- Refresh your page. Under the “Name” roll, you will see a file named randomly with letters, numbers, or symbols.
- Double-click the file to straighten open it. Or right-click the file, choose “Copy” > “Copy link address”, paste, and open the copied link on an additional web page.
- Click the "⋮" in the lower right and click “Download”.
