Very nice, I was looking for something like this. The only feedback I have is that on the frontpage it says "Download any tiktok video" but you support more websites than just tiktok. So maybe add that piece of information :)

>maybe add that piece of information The faster it gets killed by YouTube

It DEFINITELY needs to mention the other services it can download from. In mobile it only says it's a TikTok downloader, which is what I assumed it was until I came here to read the comments.

But when did your mom ever need to download videos on her device when she can access them on the internet?

My mother downloads YouTube videos as audio to put on her offline mp3 player so she can listen to music/podcasts/lectures etc. I'm sure some people are using it to download music too. There are many use cases.

Does it bypass YouTube are restriction, which seems completely arbitrary sometimes?

Does it still work? It hasn't been updated in years.

My mom downloads dance tutorials to her phone/iPad all the time.

From the roadmap: > Integration with Shopee Affiliate > Grab affiliate links and post along with the video to social media. Discover popular products to promote. I don’t understand what this means. It sounds like advertising with extra steps. And it seems like the user can repost videos? So you’re downloading videos, removing watermarks, and then reposting with your own ads? Surely I must be misunderstanding. Would w…

The actual use case without this service is that. User find tiktok video, download it on their machine. User then find affiliate link. Create a social media post with video as attachments and affiliate link as a comments on the post. So this function will automate that and user just need to paste the video link and system will do the rest including post to their social media on behalf of them.

Sickening.

To the author: I had a look at this (from a mobile browser) but didn’t download anything through it. Other downloaders that I have used for YouTube show the different resolutions and file sizes available and allow me to choose which one I want to download. This site only has a single download video button where I don’t really know what quality/size I’m downloading. I hope you can look at that.

Thank you for the feedback. Will put it on feature request

I am not a lawyer, here my 2 cents: Usage policy won't shield you since it's your server facilitating the download and distribution (allowing the user to download) part. Unlike a tool like youtube-dl which is self hosted and the responsibility falls on the user.

I have a question. Isn't it that youtube-dl offer same features? They let user download watermark free content from tiktok? Im selfhosting the backend too

It's a community led open source project, not a hosted service.
