FAQ

Before you upload.

A few things worth knowing about your files and the finished post.

What is Upload120?

Upload120 prepares a separate MP4 using the Studio Method. Download it, then upload that file through TikTok Studio on Windows or macOS.

Does Upload120 work on a phone?

For the supported workflow, use Upload120 and TikTok's web uploader in a desktop browser on Windows or macOS.

Read the upload guide

Does Upload120 change the file?

Yes. The Studio Method creates a modified MP4 for you to download. Your original export stays separate, so keep it as your master copy.
