TikTok has become a phenomenon that has wrapped people of all ages within. The large and diverse users of the platform provide such variety that everybody can get a piece of it. Thousands of TikTok likes on the platform validate the popularity of the platform. Users download these videos to use in stories and statuses on other platforms.
Have you ever wondered if you can use a TikTok video as live wallpaper? You can use TikTok videos as Live Wallpaper; the steps are not very complex. And this piece will let you know precisely how to do so. Let's get straight to it.
But before we move on to the topic. Let’s understand basics.
TikTok came out with a feature that encompasses the use of live photo. What it is? Well, it is more or less like a GIF, a feature which is introduced in several social media applications. However, not every device offers this feature. Yet it is something cool which people want to use. That is the reason why we have to understand if the device you own supports this feature or not.
Furthermore, it is used in a particular way. All you have to do is to save video in the live photo. Then, you can use this feature to move your video similar to GIF.
Which devices support GIF images? Not all, sadly. It is supported by few devices and to know if it is accepted by the device or not. You have to check the performance of your phone. In case it starts lagging, then get the point that the device is not meant for it.
TikTok allows the creators to decide whether to let the viewers download the videos. You can only make live photos from videos if the creators have enabled the download option.
Furthermore, videos from the private account cannot be used to make live photos. You may see the videos of personal accounts on your feed if they have accepted your follow request, but you will not be able to download them.
That said, there are some third-party applications to work around it. You can use them to download videos even when the creators do not allow them. Once the video is downloaded, other third-party applications can be used to convert the downloaded video into live photos.
The steps to download a video from TikTok as a live photo are different for iOS and Android. Let's take a look at both of them.
You must follow the steps to convert TikTok video into Live Photo and use it as wallpaper.
Step #1: Unlock your iPhone and open TikTok

Step #3: Tap on "Share," and it will open several options.

Step #5: It will convert the video into a Live Image.
Once the video is converted, there are two ways to use it as wallpaper for the iPhone.
Method 1 - Set the Wallpaper Directly

Downloading Live Photo on Android is just as simple as on iOS. However, there is an additional step for android users, which is to download an application.

You can delete all live pictures from the TikTok Wall Pictures application by selecting the live image and tapping on the three dots at the bottom of the screen. Select "Delete" from the options to remove the file from the application. Be mindful that deleting the live image from the application will also revert the wallpaper.

As discussed earlier, TikTok lets the creators decide whether they want the viewers to download the video. And if they do not allow it, you will not be able to download them directly from the TikTok application. However, several workarounds can be used. You can use third-party applications to download the video and then use another application to convert it into a live photo.
The intricacies vary in different applications, but the basics remain the same. You have to copy the link of the TikTok video and paste it into these applications. Some applications only download videos that have enough TikTok views. Once the video is downloaded, import it into the third-party applications and convert them into live wallpapers.
Once the application converts the video into a live wallpaper, you can use the steps mentioned earlier to set the live image as your phone's wallpaper.

You may want to watch those videos again and again. Thus, there is no better way to do that than to make them live wallpaper.
