Do you want to see who downloaded your videos on TikTok? While it's not possible to see who saved or downloaded your videos, you can see who liked and bookmarked them. TikTok lets you save other creator's videos to your phone, making it easy to re-upload and create custom duets and stitches in third-party editors. However, people can also use saved videos for nefarious purposes, such as stalking or creating deep fakes. This wikiHow article will teach you how to see who liked and bookmarked your TikTok videos, show you how to disable downloads, and walk you through saving another user's video.
