How to Send a Link to a TikTok Video on an iPhone

The TikTok app for iPhones, available as a free download on the app store, gives you the ability to record short videos of up to 60 seconds in length and then share them on the platform (either as private or public).

Tap on "the "copy link" icon under the "share to" submenu. TikTok will automatically fetch the video's link and display a "copied" confirmatory message at the top of your screen.
Select the mode you'd like to send the video and paste the link. For example, to send the video via SMS, open the messages app and then long-press on the text area to paste the link.

(b) Sending the Link of a Video From Another Account

If you want to send a link to a video posted by someone else, here are the steps:

Open the TikTok app and navigate to the video you'd like to share.
