Your first recording, step by step

SaveStream watches the TikTok channels you add and records their LIVEs on our servers. Nothing needs to stay open on your computer or phone.

1. Create your account

Sign up with your email address and confirm you are 18 or older and accept the Terms. Open the link in the verification email to activate the account. New accounts receive free trial credits once the email is verified.

2. Add a channel

Open Channels and choose Add channel. Enter a TikTok username such as @yourchannel or a profile link like tiktok.com/@yourchannel. Only add channels you own, manage, or have clear permission to record — see What you may record.

From that moment SaveStream checks the channel automatically. Checking an offline channel is free.

3. Turn on automatic recording

Open the channel and switch Auto-record on. The next time the channel goes live, recording starts on its own. Your first recordings use your free trial minutes (one LIVE at a time); when they are used up, buy a pack in Usage & Billing to keep recording.

See How automatic recording works for the details.

4. Watch or download the recording

When the LIVE ends, the recording is processed and appears in Recordings. Play it in the browser or choose Download video to save the MP4 file. Recordings are kept for a limited time — see Storage and downloads.
