# How do I import a song from TikTok?

The fastest way is TikTok's own share sheet: tap the **Share** arrow on the video and choose **Anything Piano** from the app row. If you'd rather paste, copy the link, open Anything Piano, tap **+**, and choose **TikTok Link**. Either way, the sound becomes a piano roll you can practice.

## Share straight from TikTok

1. In TikTok, open the video and tap the **Share** arrow.
2. In the row of apps, tap **Anything Piano**. The first time, you may need to scroll to the end of the row and look under More, since iOS tucks new apps away until you've used them once.
3. Anything Piano opens and asks **Does this TikTok contain piano?** Answer, and the conversion starts.

## Or paste the link

1. In TikTok, tap **Share**, then **Copy link**.
2. Open Anything Piano and tap **+**. If the link is still on your clipboard, a **Paste from clipboard** suggestion appears at the top of the menu, and one tap uses it. Otherwise, choose **TikTok Link** and paste.

## What the piano question means

If the TikTok is someone actually playing piano and you want their exact notes, choose **Yes, it has piano**. If it's a regular song (singing, guitar, a whole band), choose **No piano** and we blend the melody and instruments into one piano arrangement you can play. There's no wrong answer here, only a different result, and you can always run the same video again the other way.

## Why your song is named "TikTok Video"

TikTok doesn't tell us the name of the song in a video, so the **Name your song** field comes prefilled with "TikTok Video" and the date. Type your own name over it before you tap **Create piano roll**, or fix it later: long-press the song in **My songs** and tap **Rename**.
