How to download a Twitch VOD with Vodsnip

No browser extensions, no copy-pasting links into sketchy websites, no waiting for a whole 8-hour stream.

  1. 1

    Find the stream

    Type a streamer's name to see all their past broadcasts, highlights and uploads – or paste a Twitch VOD link anywhere in the app.

  2. 2

    Set your timestamps

    Grab the whole VOD, or type a start and end time to download only the moment you need. Links with ?t=1h24m fill in the start for you.

  3. 3

    Download the MP4

    Pick a quality and a folder. You get a clean MP4 you can drag straight into your editor or share with your team.

Built for people who edit streams

Seriously fast

Vodsnip downloads many pieces of the video at once over separate connections, so your internet connection is the only speed limit.

Only the part you need

Need 20 minutes from an 8-hour stream? Vodsnip fetches just those 20 minutes – not the whole VOD. How it works

Every quality

Source quality up to 1080p60, every lower resolution down to 160p, or audio only for podcasts and voice work.

MP4 that just works

Standard H.264 MP4 that opens in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut and every player. More about MP4

Paste a link, keep the time

Copy a Twitch link with a timestamp and paste it anywhere in the app – Vodsnip opens the VOD at that exact moment.

A queue that just works

Line up several clips from different streams, watch the progress, and get a notification when each one is done.

Everything a Twitch channel has saved

Twitch deletes VODs – save them in time

Past broadcasts disappear after 7 days on most channels, 14 days for Affiliates and 60 days for Partners and Turbo or Prime users. Highlights and uploads are capped at 100 hours per channel.
