TikTok Date Extractor

Paste the video's link, or only its ID number, into this TikTok date extractor. The date is built into the ID. The tool reads it in your browser and shows the exact date and time in UTC, down to the second.

TikTok's app shows "3 days ago" or a short date like "12-04" where the full date would go. The exact date and time are in the video's ID, and this tool reads them out for you.

Partly. The date comes from the ID, so it works on any ID you have. The author, caption and thumbnail come from TikTok, which only gives them out for public videos. For a private or deleted one you get the date and a link to where the video used to be, but none of the other details.

A short link hides the video's ID behind a redirect, and a web page isn't allowed to follow it. Open the short link, wait for the long address with the ID in it, then paste that long address here.

No. The date is read from the ID in your browser. The author, caption and thumbnail come from the service TikTok provides so other sites can embed its videos, and your browser asks it directly, only when you press Show author and caption. There's no login and no scraping, and nothing goes through Redact's servers at any point.

Check when a clip went up before it spread. See whether a "reaction" video came before the thing it reacts to. Tie a screenshot of a video to a real moment in time, down to the second.
