TikTok Bookmarks: How Do They Work?

When you hit like on video content, TikTok adds the post to the Likes folder on your profile page. But is there a way to save your favorite videos on your TikTok profile, as well? 

Yes! You can bookmark your favorite videos on TikTok and add them to your Favorites folder. You’ll find the TikTok Bookmarks feature right below the Comments icon on the left side of a post. 

You can bookmark posts on your For You, Friends, and Following feeds. You can also add sounds, effects, places, hashtags, and more to your Favorites folder. The folder gives you quick and easy in-app access to all your favorites on TikTok! It’s a great alternative to downloading video files.
