In recent years, TikTok has become the go-to platform for bite-sized entertainment, achieving the status of the most downloaded app in 2021. However, understanding the ins and outs of this dynamic platform can be a bit tricky, especially for newcomers. One popular feature often explored by TikTokers is reversing video clips, a trend that can be achieved using another popular social media app – Snapchat. Here’s how you can jump on this trend.
Getting Started: Download the TikTok Video
To reverse a TikTok video using Snapchat, the first step is downloading the video you want to modify. There are two ways to accomplish this:
Option 1: Download Directly from TikTok
- If the TikTok user has enabled video downloads, click on the “Share” icon below the video you want to download.
- You should see an option to “Save video”. Click on it to download the video to your smartphone gallery.
Option 2: Use Screen Recording
If the TikTok user has disabled video downloads, you’ll need to resort to the screen recording feature on your smartphone.
- Start screen recording on your device.
- Open the TikTok video you want to reverse and let it play till the end.
- Once the video finishes, stop the screen recording. The recorded video will automatically save in your smartphone gallery.
The Reversing Process: Upload and Edit on Snapchat
With the video downloaded, you’re ready to reverse it using Snapchat. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide:
- Open Snapchat and sign in.
- Navigate to the Memories section of your Snapchat account by clicking on the “Gallery” button located next to the “Capture” button.
- Tap on “Camera Roll” and select your downloaded TikTok video.
- Once the video is selected, click on “More options” (represented by a three-dot icon in the lower-right corner of the screen).
- Select “Edit Snap”.
- Swipe right until you find the “Rewind” filter, and apply it to your video.
- Finally, select “Save as a copy”. Your reversed TikTok video is now saved in your phone’s gallery.
