Does TikTok tell you who downloaded your video?
Does TikTok notify creators when someone downloads their video? What creators can and can't see, and how to control downloads.
No. TikTok doesn't notify you or show you who downloaded your video, whether they used TikTok's Save button or an outside site like SnapTikTK. You only see the total number of saves in your analytics.
TikTok Video Downloader in HD, no watermark →What creators can see
- Saves (bookmarks inside TikTok) appear as a count in video analytics, not as names.
- Shares are counted too, again without names.
- Downloads through TikTok's Save video button aren't listed by person.
- Downloads through third-party sites don't reach TikTok at all, so they aren't counted.
Can you stop people downloading your videos?
In TikTok, go to Settings and privacy > Privacy > Downloads and switch it off. That removes the Save video button for others. It doesn't stop screen recording, and it doesn't apply to public videos fetched by external tools.
To fully stop it, make your account private: private videos can't be downloaded by SnapTikTK or any legitimate downloader. Owners can also ask us to block a specific post through our DMCA page.
Does TikTok notify screenshots or screen recordings?
No. TikTok doesn't send notifications for screenshots or screen recordings of videos.

No. You can see how many people saved it, but not who.
Does downloading a TikTok count as a view?
Downloading through an outside site doesn't count as a view; watching it in the app does.
