How to download TikTok stories
It works like a normal video download. The difference is that a story can only be saved while it is still live.
Open the story
Tap a profile picture with a coloured ring to open the story.
Copy the link
Tap the three-dot or Share icon, then choose Copy link.
Paste & save
Paste the link above, press Download and choose MP4, JPG or MP3.
Important: Story links usually stop working after 24 hours because TikTok deletes the content.
How are stories different from normal TikTok videos?
TikTok stories are short posts that sit behind the ring on a profile picture and disappear automatically after 24 hours. Unlike regular videos, they don’t appear on the profile grid and rarely reach the For You page. Creators use them for casual content: behind-the-scenes clips, quick announcements or polls.
A story can be a video, a single photo or several photos. Because they are short-lived, people often want to keep the good ones, like a quick tutorial, a promo from a TikTok Shop seller or a moment from a friend’s account.
TikTok doesn’t give viewers a save button for stories. That’s where this downloader helps: paste the link and get the original file.
What you can save from a story
Story videos
Saved as MP4 in original resolution, usually 720p or 1080p.
Story photos
Image stories are saved as full-quality JPG files.
Story audio
Keep the music or voice from a story as an MP3.
Why people save stories
Info that disappears fast
Live schedules, promo codes and giveaway announcements are often shared only in stories and gone the next day.
Shopping reference
Sellers show off new products in stories. Save the clip to compare prices or message the seller later.
Quick tutorials
Recipes, photo-editing tricks or 15-second study tips are easier to revisit when the file is in your gallery.
Memories with friends
A birthday or a trip your friends shared in their story can live on in your personal archive.

Download TikTok stories safely and respectfully
This tool only reads stories from public accounts. Stories from private accounts or shared with close friends can’t be processed, and that’s how it should be. We don’t ask for your TikTok login and we don’t keep a history of the links you paste.
Stories often capture personal moments. Keep what you save for yourself, don’t repost without permission and never use it to harass or embarrass anyone.
