About a second
A single public reel or post, from link to download URL.
Reels, posts, every slide of a carousel and public TikToks — the original file, in about the time it takes to switch apps back.
Works with TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest and Snapchat links — reels, posts, pins, Spotlights and Stories.
Speed is the feature
No login walls, no queue to wait in. Public posts resolve straight from the source, and anything you asked for recently comes back from cache. Try the box above — it shows you the time.
