TikTok is full of sounds you want to keep: a song you have not heard before, a voice effect, a clip of a live performance, or just audio you recorded yourself. The problem is TikTok gives you no way to save audio on its own. You can save the video, but not the sound as a standalone file.

TikSave lets you extract the audio from any public TikTok and save it as an MP3 in a few seconds. Here is how.

How to save TikTok audio

Step 1: Copy the link to the TikTok video

Open TikTok and find the video with the audio you want. On mobile, tap the Share button and then tap Copy Link. On desktop, copy the URL from your browser's address bar. The link will look something like https://www.tiktok.com/@username/video/1234567890.

Step 2: Paste it into TikSave

Go to tiksave.privacyconvert.com and paste the link into the input field. TikSave will load the video info automatically once you paste.

Step 3: Click Audio

Once the video loads, click the Audio button. The MP3 file will download directly to your device. No conversion needed on your end.

What audio quality does it save?

The MP3 TikSave downloads comes directly from TikTok's servers. It matches the audio quality used in the video itself, which is the same quality you hear in the app. TikSave does not re-encode or compress it further.

What can you use saved TikTok audio for?

A few common reasons people save TikTok audio:

  • Saving a song or sound before a video gets deleted
  • Using a sound in your own video edits
  • Keeping audio you recorded yourself via TikTok
  • Listening to something offline without keeping the full video
  • Identifying a track you want to look up later

Can you save audio from any TikTok?

TikSave works on any publicly visible TikTok video. If a video is set to private, the audio cannot be extracted because the video itself is not accessible.

It works on all types of TikTok content: regular videos, duets, stitches, and live recordings that were posted as videos.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. TikSave is a web tool that works in any browser on any device. On iPhone, the MP3 will save to your Files app or Downloads folder depending on your browser. On Android it goes to your Downloads folder. On desktop it saves wherever your browser puts downloaded files.

Common questions

Why does TikTok not let you save audio directly?

TikTok's app does not have a native audio download feature. You can save videos with the watermark, but there is no option to extract just the sound. Third-party tools like TikSave fill that gap.

Is the file really an MP3?

Yes. The Audio download from TikSave saves as an MP3 file that plays in any music player, phone, browser, or video editor.

Can I save the audio from a TikTok live?

Only if the live was saved and posted as a video on the creator's profile. TikSave cannot access live streams in real time.
