TikTok FaveSave

FaveSave is a free-to-use desktop app that automatically downloads your favorite and liked TikTok videos ( via yt_dlp ) using your exported profile data.

How To Use

1. First you'll need to visit TikTok’s data request page.

2. Submit a data request, choosing JSON as your export format.

3. Wait for TikTok to process your request (typically 1–3 days).

⚠️ Important: With the TikTok ban expected to take effect on January 19, 2025, request your data as soon as possible to ensure you have enough time to download and preserve your videos.

4. Once your data is ready, download it from TikTok and extract the folder.

5. Download the FaveSave zip from the releases page and extract it to a local folder ( or if you prefer you can build and run it locally with the run_app.sh script ). After launching it, select the location of your JSON file ( e.g. user_data_tiktok.json ) , choose your output folder and preferences, then click Start Download to fetch your videos.

Note: Videos that have already been downloaded will be skipped ( in case you wish to re-run the app later and resume operation )
