How to Download TikTok Comment Stickers and Photos

TikTok comments are full of stickers, GIFs and photos that a spreadsheet can only show as links. You can now download all of them from any public TikTok video as one ZIP file, in their original quality.

Why download TikTok comment stickers and photos

On many videos a large share of the replies are not text at all. In one 300-comment sample we tested, 95 comments carried a sticker or a photo. If you only read the text column, you miss what those people actually posted.

• Campaign and UGC collection — gather the photos customers post under a product or challenge video.
• Giveaways with photo entries — review every photo entry next to the username that posted it.
• Moderation and brand safety — check what is being posted as images under your videos, where text filters cannot see it.
• Research and trend tracking — see which stickers and reaction images an audience uses most.
• Archiving — keep a copy of the visual replies before the comments or the video are removed.

How to download them — step by step

Step 1: Copy the TikTok video URL

Open the video on TikTok, tap Share, then Copy link. Both the long form (tiktok.com/@user/video/123…) and short share links work. The video must be public.

Step 2: Paste it on ExportComments.com

Go to the TikTok comments exporter and paste the link. Turn on replies if you also want the stickers and photos posted in reply threads.

Step 3: Click "Start Export Process"

The export collects the comments together with the link to every sticker and photo attached to them.

Step 4: Click "Download stickers & photos (ZIP)"

When the export finishes, the download options include Download stickers & photos (ZIP). Click it, wait for the button to show Done, then click it again to save the file. Small exports take a few seconds. Exports with thousands of images take a few minutes.

Inside the ZIP — what you get

• stickers/ — stickers and GIFs picked from TikTok's sticker keyboard, saved as WebP. Animated stickers keep their animation.
• photos/ — images the commenters uploaded themselves, saved as JPEG at the original size.
• File names — each file is named after the commenter's username and the comment ID, so you can tell who posted what.
• index.csv — one row per file with these columns: file, type, username, comment, comment_url, source_url.
• README.txt — only present when the ZIP reached its size limit. It says how many files were included and how many were left out.

The regular Excel and CSV exports of the same video also list these links in the Image URLs column. If you would rather see the pictures inside the spreadsheet, use Save with images instead.

Common workflows

• Only one date range — apply Export Using Date Range first, then request the ZIP. The ZIP contains only the comments that match.
• One file per person — combine the ZIP with Filter duplicate users to keep a single comment per commenter.
• Match files to comments — open index.csv in Excel or Google Sheets and use the comment_url column to jump to the original comment.
• Very large videos — split the export by date range and download several smaller ZIP files.

Plan limits & API access

The ZIP download is included on every plan. The number of comments per export depends on your plan: Free 100, Personal 5,000, Premium 50,000, Business 250,000. See pricing. A single ZIP holds up to 3,000 files or 500 MB. The REST API is available on Premium and Business.

FAQ

• Do animated stickers stay animated?
  Yes. Stickers are saved exactly as TikTok stores them, as animated WebP, so every frame is kept.
• Can I tell who posted each sticker or photo?
  Yes. Every file name starts with the commenter's username, and index.csv lists the username, the comment text and a link to the comment.
• The button says the links have expired. What now?
  TikTok's image links stop working about 30 days after the export. Run the export again and request the ZIP from the new export.
• It says no stickers or photos were found.
  Either the comments on that video contain text only, or the export was made before sticker support was added. Run the export again to pick them up.
• Does it work on private videos?
  Public videos work without logging in. For private content see how to export private TikTok data.
• Are stickers from replies included?
  Yes, when the export was made with replies turned on.
• Can I download the video itself?
  No. This download covers the stickers, GIFs and photos posted in the comments.
