Grant storage permission the first time
On Android 12 and below, Chrome may ask for storage permission on the first download. Tap "Allow" to enable saving files.
Samsung Gallery picks it up automatically
On Samsung devices, downloaded videos appear in the Gallery app under the Downloads album immediately after saving.
Xiaomi / MIUI users
On Xiaomi phones, use the built-in browser or Chrome. The video saves to Downloads and appears in the Photos app under Albums → Downloads.
Share directly from the download notification
After the download completes, Android shows a notification with the file. Tap it to open the video, or long-press to share it directly to WhatsApp, Telegram, or other apps.
Troubleshooting on Android
Download starts but file is 0 bytes
This usually happens on slow connections. Try again on Wi-Fi. Also check that you have enough storage space on your device.
Video doesn't appear in Gallery
Open the Files app and check the Downloads folder manually. Some Android versions require you to wait a moment for the media scanner to index the new file.
Chrome asks to open with an external app
Tap "Download" instead of opening. If you see a prompt, select "Download file" to save it to your device rather than streaming it.
"Download blocked" warning in Chrome
This warning appears for some file types. Tap "Download anyway" — TokDown only serves standard MP4 and MP3 files.
