If you want to share your TikTok on Instagram, the first step is to obtain a watermark - free version of the video. Simply downloading it from the TikTok app isn't sufficient. In this guide, we'll show you step - by - step how to upload and edit your TikTok video using Kapwing, an online video editing tool that's accessible on mobile devices.

Step 1: Copy the link for your video

Navigate to the video you want to share on your TikTok profile. 

Rather than downloading the video, tap on the three - dot icon to bring up the sharing menu. Then, select “Copy link” to copy the video’s URL and store it on your clipboard.

Step 2: Upload the TikTok to Kapwing

Open your mobile browser and go to Kapwing.com. Then, start a new project. Paste the TikTok link you copied earlier into the upload window labeled “Paste a video URL.” The video might take several seconds to finish loading.

Step 3: Add captions to your TikTok

This step is not mandatory, yet it is strongly advised, especially if your video contains voice - overs or spoken content. Undoubtedly, adding captions to any social media video is essential for accessibility. Additionally, it significantly enhances reach, engagement, and watch time.

When you export or download a video from the TikTok app, captions are not embedded within the video file. So, even if you've added auto captions on TikTok, they won't appear when you import the video into Kapwing. However, there's no need to worry, as you can quickly and effortlessly add subtitles back.

To begin, tap on the “Subtitles” tab located in the bottom menu of the screen to activate the auto - subtitle generator. From the subtitle options, select “Auto subtitles.” Then, choose the subtitle language that corresponds to the language spoken in the video and tap “Auto Subtitle.” It will take a short while for the subtitles to be generated.

Step 4: Apply the Instagram Reels Safe Zones filter

Before exporting your TikTok video, the final crucial step is to ensure that the captions will be clearly visible after uploading to Instagram.

First, tap on the empty area surrounding the video preview to select the background or canvas. Next, click the “Edit background” button located at the top of the screen. Then, scroll down within the Project tab until you find the “Show Safe Zones” option.

Tap the Instagram icon to activate the Instagram Reels Safe Zones filter and preview how your video will appear on Instagram. This filter overlays a transparent representation of the Instagram interface onto your video preview, indicating which sections of the video will be fully visible and which areas may be obscured by elements such as video captions, menu options, your profile picture, and so on.

In case your subtitles are not positioned correctly, just drag and adjust their size to ensure they are within the "Safe Zone."

Step 5: Export and Share on Instagram

Your video is now all set! Simply tap the export button, and once the process is complete, click the download option to save the video to your device's camera roll.
