01Why the video isn't in Photos yet
On iPhone and iPad, Safari saves every download to the Files app, not straight to Photos. It's one extra step, and it works the same for TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X videos.
02Move a downloaded video to Photos
03Using Chrome on iPhone
Chrome for iOS also downloads to Files. When the download finishes, tap Open in… and then Save Video, or find it in Files → On My iPhone → Chrome.
04Another option: the Telegram bot
If you use Telegram, send the link to @SSTIKdownloader_bot. The bot replies with the video, and you can save it to Photos from Telegram.
05Troubleshooting
- Nothing happens when I tap Download: you're probably in an in-app browser. Use its menu to "Open in Safari".
- I can't find Downloads: go to Settings → Safari → Downloads to see where files are stored (iCloud Drive or On My iPhone).
- Save Video is missing: wait for the download to finish, then try again.
Safari downloads need iOS 13 or newer.
