TikTok Stories Downloader
Download TikTok Stories to your device before the 24-hour window closes.
Your download has started
Check your downloads folder — the file should be there in a moment.
Stories disappear after 24 hours, and there is no official way to keep a copy. If someone has posted something you need to hold on to — your own content, or something you have permission to reuse — downloading it is the only way to stop it vanishing.
Paste the Story link the same way you would a normal post. TikTok serves Stories through the same delivery system as regular videos, so the resolution options and the download itself work identically. The only difference is the deadline: once the window closes, the file is gone from the platform and no tool can retrieve it.
If a Story has already expired, nothing will bring it back. Screenshots and screen recordings are the only fallback, and both lose quality.

Frequently asked questions
Can I download TikTok Stories after they expire?
No. Once the 24-hour window closes the file is removed from the platform, and no downloader can retrieve something that no longer exists on the server. Download it while it is still live.
Do Stories download in the same quality as regular posts?
Yes. Stories are delivered through the same pipeline, so you get the same resolution options.
Can I see who viewed my Story?
Only inside the app, and only for your own account. This tool does not interact with your account at all — it takes a public link and returns a file.
