7 apps that remove watermarks from TikToks and Reels

To maximize content reach and leverage different audiences, Social Media Managers can post the same video to both TikTok and Instagram. But if you're building the video in-app, how do you avoid the TikTok or Instagram watermark when you go to download it? Since it's not possible to remove the watermarks in TikTok or Instagram themselves, in this article we'll provide 7 external tools to help you do it in just a couple of clicks.

Why should I remove a TikTok or Instagram watermark?

Instagram has stated that they are trying to deter creators from recycling TikToks for Reels by making that video content less discoverable. While we haven't found evidence that TikTok works the same way, I can only imagine that a watermark-free video will perform better.

Before we get into our list of 3rd party apps that remove TikTok or Instagram watermarks, we should clarify that you should only use these apps to repurpose your own content. They should not be used to steal content from other creators or businesses.

Now that we've got that out of the way, let's begin!

7 apps that will remove watermarks from your videos

Starting with another disclaimer, while these apps could be helpful to your video strategy, none of them are affiliated with TikTok or Instagram (since both platforms would prefer you keep their logos in place).
