Does TokLiveRecorder keep recording if I close the tab or turn off my phone?
Yes. TokLiveRecorder records TikTok LIVE streams on its own servers, so once a recording has started you can close the tab, lock your phone or turn it off and the recording keeps going. Notifications and phone calls can't interrupt it either, because nothing is being captured from your screen.
- Recording runs in the cloud, not on your device.
- When the LIVE ends, the MP4 appears in My Recordings and you get an email with a download link.
- Auto-record also works with your phone off: TokLiveRecorder checks every 5 minutes and starts recording when the creator goes live.
- If the stream drops while the creator is still live, TokLiveRecorder reconnects and keeps recording as a new part.
