No extension needed — ever
TokDown is a website, not a browser extension. Extensions require broad permissions ("read and change all your data on websites you visit"). TokDown has no such access — it only runs on its own page.
Change Chrome's default download folder
Go to Chrome Settings → Downloads → Change the location. Set it to your Desktop or a dedicated Videos folder so downloaded TikToks are easy to find.
Chrome on Android saves to Downloads
On Android Chrome, files save to the device's Downloads folder. Open the Files app or your Gallery app to find and play the video after downloading.
.webm vs .mp4 in Chrome
Older Chromium versions may label the file as .webm even though it is an MP4 container. Rename the extension to .mp4 and it plays correctly in VLC, Windows Media Player, or any other video player.
