TikTok uses a watermark as a badge of honor, showcasing to the world that the video was made using the app. It might be annoying for some of us but it’s a great way to spread the word about the app and protect the creator’s rights at the same time. However, you might feel that the watermark on the top left corner is an eyesore, and you need to delete it before sharing. Read to find out how to remove watermarks from TikTok videos.
Manual TikTok watermark removal
This method is suitable for users who have basic knowledge of editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro or Filmora and are comfortable with navigating through its features. Here’s a step-by-step guide to manual removal of the TikTok watermark:
It’s important to note that manually removing the TikTok watermark may not always produce the best results and the quality of the video may be compromised.
Should you remove it?
Unfortunately, downloading TikTok videos without a watermark is against the platform’s policy and goes against copyright laws.
- Sharing or downloading someone else’s content without proper permission is not allowed, regardless of whether or not the watermark is present.
- The use of third-party apps to download TikTok videos without a watermark could result in consequences such as having your account banned or the edited video being removed.
TikTok Video Editor
TikTok’s inbuilt Video Editor is a convenient option for removing the watermark as it’s accessible within the app and doesn’t require any additional software.
Open the TikTok app and upload the video you want to edit. Use the crop tool to remove the watermark, just like any other editing tool. You can also add a cover that doesn’t include the watermark. Save the video and download it to your phone.
Third party apps
Third-party apps let you download a TikTok video directly without a watermark. Simply, copy the link of the video you need and paste it in their video downloader. This saves the video to your gallery without the watermark.
Here’s a list of third-party apps that allow you to download TikTok videos without watermark. These apps are not directly affiliated to TikTok, and they may or may not work:
Most of these apps are free of cost but some of them work only on a limited trial basis. You can use them on PC, iPhone or Android. However, this still goes against their guidelines.

We strongly advise against using any app that claims to allow the download of TikTok videos without the watermark. Always follow the platform’s guidelines for sharing and downloading content.
Watermarks ensure you respect the rights of TikTok creators by obtaining their permission before sharing or downloading their videos.
