Your 4Chan Finds, Downloaded and Yours

What happens after you paste the 4Chan link

4Chan is reached through our gallery extractor. Given a post, album or profile URL it enumerates the files attached to it and pulls each one at the size it was uploaded — there is no rendition ladder to negotiate and no re-encode step, so what lands on your device is the file 4Chan stored. Among the 4Chan link shapes handled are board, thread. No credentials are involved anywhere in this path — neither yours nor ours.

Use whichever is quicker: the field above, or tikt.com/ ahead of the 4Chan link:

tikt.com/https://www.example.com/path/to/media

What you actually have to do

1. Open the 4Chan post

Find the 4Chan post, album or profile page holding what you want and copy its address. A post URL gets you that post; a profile URL gets you what the profile has published.

2. Paste it above

Drop the URL into the field at the top of this page. The gallery extractor enumerates the files attached to that 4Chan page rather than guessing at one.

3. Take the files

Each file is listed at the size it was uploaded to 4Chan. Save one, or save the lot — nothing has been resampled or re-encoded in between.

Because 4Chan is handled by the gallery route. It enumerates the files attached to the post or album you pointed at instead of picking one, so a post with eight images returns eight images. If you only wanted one, link the individual item rather than the container.

Among others: board, thread. Those are separate URL shapes with separate handling behind them, which is why a link that looks nothing like the last one you pasted still works.

Because there is nothing to select between. The gallery route returns the file as 4Chan stored it — one version, at its uploaded size. A quality menu here would be decoration over a single option.

No cap you have to pay to lift and no trial that expires. The paid plan exists for people who download in bulk or want the API; a single 4Chan link does not need it and never will.

Not by us. There is no re-encode step in the path, so the file you get is bit-for-bit what 4Chan served. Whatever compression 4Chan applied when it accepted the upload is already baked in and cannot be undone by anyone.

Yes, identically. The work happens on our side, so an old phone on a slow connection is no worse at resolving the 4Chan link than a desktop — it just downloads the file more slowly afterwards.

No. The file streams through and is gone; there is no library, no history and nothing to delete afterwards. That is also why we cannot re-send you something you downloaded last week.

No. This is a web page with a text box. Anything that asks you to install an executable to save the 4Chan link is asking for more access than the job requires.

4Chan delivers content in MP4, JPG, MP3. Tikt.com preserves the source container; the only post-processing is optional re-muxing on request.

Tikt.com itself never adds a watermark. 4Chan content is delivered as-is from the source CDN.

4Chan delivers up to 1080p. Tikt.com selects the best variant the manifest lists, falling back to the next tier if the top one is geo-blocked for your IP.

Anyone who has ever wanted a 4Chan post available offline -- archiving, sharing across platforms, re-editing or just keeping a personal copy.

Tikt.com on 4Chan produces: MP4, JPG, MP3. The container is picked automatically based on the source URL -- video links yield MP4, audio links yield MP3, image links yield the original.

Free. Tikt.com bills nothing for 4Chan downloads. There are no per-clip limits and no daily caps for normal personal use.

Tikt.com does not retain downloaded files or log user activity. All media is processed in a stateless pipeline and transmitted directly to the requesting device.
