How to Preserve Everything You Love on TikTok Before It Goes Away ...Middle East

Download your likes, favorites, and follows

My three main concerns before the ban are making sure I have a list of people I follow, so I can follow them elsewhere, grabbing videos I’ve bookmarked since they probably had some utility, and saving my own videos. TikTok is the best place to start, since they have a built in feature that gives you all of that data as a document. You can request a data download of all your personal settings including your likes, followers, follows, bookmarks, and a list of your posts. Note: this does not include any actual videos; it’s more an inventory for you to work off of.

Account > Download your data. Note that you can select what types of data you want to download and what format you want it in (text file or JSON). A text file is more useful right now, since it will output your information in a format you can easily access, but having a JSON file might enable you to work with future utilities to help import follows and likes to another platform, so I recommend grabbing both formats of data. This means going through this exercise twice. Once for the text file, once for the JSON file (a computer language) to store in case some TikTok replacement can use it in the future to make importing follows or likes easy. 

How to save your own videos

The most painful (but cost effective) way to save your own videos is to simply visit each of them and download individually. Once the video is open from your profile, click the three dots in the lower right corner and select “Download Video.” If it sounds labor intensive, it is. 

If you’re a confident coder with some JSON experience, you can use a free tool a TikToker built that they’ve open sourced on GitHub. You'll need that JSON file for this method to work.

There are additional tools, like Repurpose.io, which will reportedly download all your videos for you, and even crosspost them to other platforms, but at a steep cost ($349 for the year). 

How to save your favorited or liked videos

If you’d specifically like to grab videos from other people that you liked or favorited, you can download them individually, as noted above. However, I had luck using the MyFaveTT extension for Chrome, which is free.

Once installed, open it and connect to TikTok on the desktop. From there, you select whether you’d like to save your liked or favorited videos, and designate a location for them on your hard drive. This was a pretty seamless process, and over the course of an hour, all my bookmarked videos were saved. Depending on how many videos this is, it could take up hefty resources on your hard drive, so as above, you may want to have someplace online to park the videos until you need them.

While I wish there were one utility that would grab all the data and videos I want at once, piecing these methods together will result in getting all your content out of TikTok safely.
