You can download music videos from the TikTok app to share with your friends on Facebook Messenger or share those videos directly from the app with a link. This How.com.vn teaches you how to send a TikTok video in Messenger on Android.
Steps
Sharing a Link
Open TikTok. This app icon looks like a white, blue, and red music note on a black background. You can find this on either your home screen, in the apps drawer, or by searching. If you don’t have TikTok downloaded, you can get it for free from the Google Play Store.
- Use this method to share the direct URL of a TikTok video to a Facebook Messenger contact. The recipient of the URL can tap the link to open the video in their browser (or in TikTok, if they have it installed).
- If you want to download the video file and send it through Messenger, see the "Attaching a Video File" method instead.
Navigate to the video you want to share. You can find a video from your feed or by searching.- To locate your favorite videos on TikTok, go to your profile and see the bar under your bio.
- The heart is your favorites tab, where all the videos you have favorited will be. The icon is on the right side of the bar.
Tap the sharing icon. You’ll find this to the right of the video. A list of options for sharing the video will load, including Messenger.
Tap the Messenger icon. This looks like a blue speech bubble with a white lightning bolt inside. A list of all your contacts will appear.- If you're not already signed into Messenger, you'll be prompted to do so now.
Tap Send next to a contact. This shares the URL with the selected contact. If the contact already has TikTok, the video will appear when they tap the link. If not, they'll be prompted to download TikTok.Advertisement
Attaching a Video
Open TikTok. This app icon looks like a white, blue, and red music note on a black background. You can find this on either your home screen, in the apps drawer, or by searching.- Use this method if you want to download a video from TikTok to share with someone on Messenger. Both you and the recipient will be able to watch the video on or offline, even if the video is removed from TikTok.
