If you are wondering why your TikTok videos cannot be downloaded by others, this guide will explain the reason to you. Plus, we will also provide fixes to this problem.
Whether you know it or not, not all TikTok videos are allowed to be downloaded. For this topic, we've previously talked about how to save unsavable TikTok videos in our recently posted guide. Therefore, this guide will mainly focus on why people can't download my TikToks and how to let them save my TikToks.
There are a few reasons why can't people save your TikTok videos:
1. Not all TikTok account types have the authority to let people download videos
2. If you're under the age of 16, your download setting will be off, and you can't turn it on
3. If you set your account to "Private," people can't download your videos either
4. Other problems like network connectivity issues, app bugs, insufficient storage space, etc
Finding the right solution to the problem is easy as long as you see its reason. This section will show you some simple tips to let people download your TikTok.
A "one size fits all" solution to let others download your TikTok is to use this full-featured video downloader - EaseUS Video Downloader. You can use it to download any video from any site like TikTok, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and more without a problem. It is helpful if you also can't download YouTube videos.

Another solution is to check whether you've enabled the option for video download in your Tiktok app. If you've disabled the download option, users can't download and share your videos either. But this method doesn't work for users under the age of 16. Here are the steps.
Step 1. Head to the TikTok app on your iPhone and click on "Me" at the bottom right corner of the screen.
Step 2. Click the more button at the top-right corner of your screen.
Step 3. Click "Privacy," tap "Downloads," and then enable "Video Downloads."
If your TikTok account is private, users can't download your videos either. In that case, you'll need to switch your profile from a private account to a public account.
Step 1. Open the TikTok app on your device, and click on "Me" in the lower right-hand corner of your screen.
Step 2. Click the more button, which is a circle with three dots.
Step 3. Select "Privacy" and turn the "Private account" off.
Step 4. Confirm your option if asked.
Asides from the three solutions introduced above, you can also try updating your TikTok app, logging out and logging in to your account, changing your network to cellular, or switching to a Pro account. If your problem still exists after adopting these solutions, try reporting the problem to TikTok Support.
