If you want to set a wallpaper on Android, you can use either the standard static or more exciting live wallpapers. Live wallpapers can be more fun than static ones so you may want to use them more—and you can even use videos from TikTok.
In this article, we'll show you how to set TikTok videos as your wallpaper on Android.
How to Use TikTok Videos as Live Wallpapers on Android
TikTok has a dedicated app that lets you set any video on the platform as your wallpaper. That's right, if you've bumped into an exciting TikTok video, you can use it as your wallpaper.
To do this, you'll have to download another app from TikTok. Once you have the app, you can set any TikTok video as your wallpaper on Android. But there's a catch—it only works if the uploader has enabled the download feature in privacy settings.
Here's a step-by-step guide for setting any TikTok video as your Android wallpaper:
- Download and install TikTok Video Wallpaper from Google Play Store. It's free.
- Launch the app and tap Continue to agree to TikTok's terms of use.
- Now, launch the main TikTok app and search for any video you want.
- When you find it, select the Share icon.
- Under the Share to menu, select Set as wallpaper.
- Next, choose whether you want to set the video as your home screen wallpaper or wallpaper for both your home screen and lock screen from the pop-up.
- Once you select a choice, the video will be set as your wallpaper.
That's how you set any TikTok video as your wallpaper. This guide only covers Android, but you can also set a video wallpaper for your desktop PC.
Remember, using a video wallpaper will drain your battery faster. If battery life is a concern, you shouldn't use a video wallpaper or any other dynamic wallpaper. Otherwise, be ready to charge your device more regularly due to battery drain.
