Get Your Koo Photo File

Paste the Koo link. Pick the photo file. Done.

What happens after you paste the Koo link

The reason the Koo photo file is awkward to save in the first place is that the platform serves it as a stream rather than as a file. This page does the small amount of work that turns one into the other, and nothing else. Koo's extractor is currently flagged as unreliable upstream, so an occasional failure there is expected rather than surprising. Koo is handled by the media route, which reads the site's own rendition list before choosing anything. Koo routinely carries items over an hour long, which makes file size the practical limit rather than speed.

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

tikt.com/https://www.example.com/path/to/media
The whole process
1. Copy the Koo link

Use the address bar or the platform's own share button — both give a URL the extractor recognises. Point it at the single item you want, not the page around it.

2. Let it read the renditions

Paste the URL above. The extractor asks Koo which renditions exist for that item and picks the best progressive one rather than assuming a quality.

3. Save what comes back

The file arrives in the container Koo served it in, and the extractor does not rebuild it — so what you end up with is what the uploader encoded, for better or worse.

Technical FAQ — Tikt.com Koo Media Converter

No. Koo is handled by the media route, which resolves the item a link names rather than walking a profile's history. Paste the individual item you want. That is a limit of the route, not a paywall — there is nothing to upgrade to that changes it.

Koo's extractor is flagged unreliable upstream: the site changed something and the fix has not shipped yet. It is not your link. Retrying occasionally helps because the failure is not always total, but the real fix lands upstream rather than here.

It reads the rendition list Koo publishes for that item and takes the highest progressive one — a single file with video and audio already muxed, so nothing has to be recombined afterwards. It never re-encodes, so it cannot give you a quality Koo did not publish.

Because the item is long. Koo carries a lot of half-hour-plus material and the file size follows from that. The transfer streams straight through with no queue on our side, so the limit is your connection and the size of the thing you asked for.

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 Koo 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 Koo served. Whatever compression Koo 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 Koo 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.

Photo downloads come back at full source resolution -- whatever pixel dimensions the original uploader used on Koo.

JPG files render in every OS image viewer, every browser and most editors (Photoshop, GIMP, Affinity, Krita).

Tikt.com never adds image watermarks. The Photo you download from Koo is the source file the platform CDN serves.

Koo serves the Photo asset as a public URL. Tikt.com fetches it without ever signing in to your account.

The typical case: photo-only extraction. Photo on Koo is the right pick when you want exactly that media slice without dragging in the rest of the post.

One Photo per URL by default. For multiple, paste each Koo URL into a fresh tab or use the batch endpoint documented under /api/.

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.
