How to download TikTok slideshow photos

TikTok photo posts (slideshows, sometimes called photo mode or carousels) hold several pictures in one post. Here is how to save all of them as image files, or only the ones you want.

Step by step

  1. Copy the link of the photo post. Open the slideshow in TikTok, tap Share (the arrow) and then Copy link. On a computer, copy the address of the post; it contains /photo/.
  2. Open the TikTok photo downloader. Go to the PixHold TikTok photo downloader in your browser.
  3. Paste the link and press Download. After a moment PixHold shows a thumbnail for every photo in the post, numbered in the order they appear in the slideshow.
  4. Save everything or pick photos. Press Download all photos (ZIP) to get the whole set in one file. To keep a single picture, tap its thumbnail.
  5. Optional: save the sound. If the post has a sound that TikTok makes available, it is listed as Original sound (audio) with its own Download button.
The ZIP is put together on your own device, in the browser. The photos are not uploaded to PixHold. For a slideshow with many large pictures this can take a few seconds.

Open the ZIP

  • iPhone and iPad: open the Files app → Downloads and tap the ZIP. A folder with the photos appears next to it. Select the photos, tap Share and choose Save Images to add them to Photos.
  • Android: open the ZIP in the Files app and tap Extract.
  • Windows: right-click the ZIP and choose Extract All.
  • Mac: double-click the ZIP.

The files are named after the post and numbered 01, 02, 03…, so they stay in slideshow order when sorted by name.

Good to know

  • You get the pictures as TikTok stores them. PixHold does not resize or recompress anything.
  • Only public posts work. Private and friends-only posts cannot be downloaded.
  • If the ZIP cannot be built, usually because the device is low on memory, tap the photos one at a time instead.
  • Photos belong to the person who posted them. Keep them for personal use and ask before you re-post.

TikTok slideshow questions

Can I download all photos of a TikTok slideshow at once?

Yes. Paste the link to the photo post into PixHold and press the Download all photos (ZIP) button. Every picture of the slideshow is packed into one ZIP file, in the original order.

Can I save just one photo from a slideshow?

Yes. PixHold shows a thumbnail for every photo. Tap the one you want and only that picture is saved.

Do the photos have a TikTok watermark?

No. PixHold fetches the picture files of the post, not a screen recording of the slideshow, so there is no moving TikTok logo on them.

Can I get the music of the slideshow too?

When TikTok provides the sound of the post, PixHold lists it as Original sound (audio) next to the photos.
