When you save a video-in-progress as a draft, you can open it for editing later to record more clips, add transitions, and more.
Your drafts are only available on the phone or tablet on which you create them. If you switch to another phone, you won’t be able to access your drafts on that device.
Want to record more video for this TikTok? Tap the back arrow at the top-left corner of your draft, then select Continue recording to return to the camera screen.
To share your video on TikTok, tap Next, enter your caption and preferences, and then tap Post. If you’re not ready to share yet, tap Next and then tap Drafts at the bottom-left to re-save the draft. Tap Post to Story to share the video to your story, which is a feature that appears on your profile for 24 hours before disappearing (just like Instagram and Snapchat stories).
Are you using the same phone or tablet on which you created the draft you’re looking for? If not, and you still have TikTok on the other phone or tablet, you can still access the draft on the other device. Unfortunately, even though drafts are saved locally, TikTok doesn’t add drafts to your camera roll. This means that you won’t find the draft in your Photos or Gallery app after deleting TikTok.
Tap the draft in your Drafts folder and make any final changes. Tap Next. Set the visibility to Yourself. Tap More options and toggle on the “Save to device” option. Tap the back button and then tap Post. This posts the video privately and saves it to your camera roll.
