If you’re curious about whether you can see who has saved your TikTok videos to their devices, we have all the information you need.

In the past couple of years, TikTok has dominated the internet, with millions of users constantly creating and sharing content on the short-form video app, while engaging in trends and boosting viral content.

When users come across a video they love, they have several options when it comes to bookmarking for later, including ‘liking’ it and saving it to their ‘favorites’ section on the app.

You are also able to download a video to the camera roll of your device, by pressing and holding a post and clicking ‘save video.’ If you are a creator, you might be interested in knowing exactly who has downloaded your videos.

Can you see who saved your video on TikTok?

No, TikTok currently does not allow you to see who downloaded or saved your video to their camera roll.

That said, if you want to prevent people from downloading your video in the first place, you can do as follows:

  1. Open TikTok.
  2. Go to the ‘Profile’ tab.
  3. Click the three lines at the top, and then tap ‘Settings and privacy.’
  4. Under ‘Account’ go into ‘Privacy’ and scroll down to the ‘Downloads’ tab.
  5. In the ‘Downloads’ tab, toggle the switch to turn video downloads on or off.

However, even if you keep downloads on, it isn’t possible to see who has saved your videos.

Turning off this feature helps prevent people from downloading your videos.

Can you see who favorited your TikTok?

Yes, you are able to see who has favorited your TikTok.

Another way of ‘saving’ TikToks is by using the favorite button on the right-hand sight of the video. Although originally users were unable to see who exactly had favorited their video, some people began reporting that they were receiving notifications informing them who had favorited their posts.

To see who has favorited your TikTok, go to your inbox and check the activity tab. There you should be able to see if anyone has favorited your videos.

TikTok has also previously reintroduced a profile views feature, where you’re able to keep track of some of the accounts that are viewing your profile.
