What streamer hasn’t uttered the word “clip that!” after nailing a sick headshot, winning a last-second boss fight, or a perfectly timed chat-activated fart noise? These are the moments that make Twitch special. And if you don’t have a way to preserve them, they might disappear into the Twitch ether after the stream ends.

The good news is that you can save these amazing moments as a Twitch clip to keep them forever. A clip is a short video snippet from a live stream or VOD that can be easily shared across platforms. The Twitch clip saving tool makes this process incredibly easy, whether you’re using an iPhone, Android, or desktop.

To create a Twitch clip, simply hover over the video you’re watching and click on the clapperboard icon at the bottom right corner of the screen. Then, use the slider to select which part of the video you want to capture and then give it a name. Once you’re happy with your clip, hit ‘publish’ and it will be saved to Twitch for all to see.

Twitch clips can be found in a streamer’s ‘Videos’ tab along with their highlights, event replays, and more. In addition, they can also be found in the ‘Clips’ section of their creator dashboard under the ‘Content’ category. They can be viewed by other streamers or viewers who have selected the video as a Twitch clip.

For streamers, the main purpose of Twitch clips is to enable them to share memorable moments with their audience and grow their community. They can also be used as content for TikTok and Instagram reels to extend the reach of their streams. And for non-streamers, twitch clips can be used as a personal library of video-on-demand memories or to help them remember important moments they’ve seen on stream.

Aside from being able to upload clips as VODs, Twitch clips can also be downloaded by their creators or viewers. This allows them to take their favorite moments with them offline and watch them whenever they want. Additionally, downloads can be used as a backup of their clips in case they’re deleted from their Twitch accounts or computers.

Besides downloading Twitch clips, users can also use third-party apps to convert them into other types of videos such as TikTok, Instagram Reels, or YouTube shorts. This gives them the flexibility to post their best moments on different social media platforms, and even share them with their followers in an automated manner.
