Tik Tok besides becoming one of the most popular social networks in a short time, the truth is that it is also a platform in which thousands of videos are generated daily with a great component of creativity. Such is the fury of this app that even large companies like CocaCola have decided to launch marketing campaigns on Tik Tok..
The amount of attractive videos that they create on Tik Tok, have caused many users to want to share them not only through the original platform, but also through other services such as Whatsapp or Messenger. It is true that Tik Tok offers the possibility of sharing any of its videos through other apps such as Snapchat or Whatsapp, however, this video will be shared through URLs and not as video.
When we receive a shared video through URL, any user will be able to view it through their Web browser, either on your mobile device or desktop. However, you will not be able to view it locally without having to be connected to the internet..
In order to use the Tik Tok videos locally, we will be forced to download the Tik Tok videos directly to our device.
Fortunately, Tik Tok allows us, by default and officially, to download any video from the platform locally on your mobile device, be it Android or iPhone..
