How do I watch a replay after a stream ends?
If a streamer saved their broadcast, opening that stream after it ends shows a replay you can play right there. Not every stream is kept: whether a replay exists depends on the streamer, so if the ended stream offers no replay, that broadcast was not saved.
Missed a stream live? You can sometimes still catch it. When a streamer saves their broadcast, the stream page turns into a replay once the live show ends, and you can play it back on your own time.
Find a replay
- Open the stream (the same link where you watched it, or a link someone shared).
- If it has ended, the page shows that the stream is over.
- If a replay was saved, a play option for the recording appears. Tap it to watch.
- Scrub through it like any recorded video.
Not every stream is saved
A replay only exists when the streamer kept the recording. If the ended stream offers no replay to play, that broadcast was not saved, and the live moment is gone. Clips are the exception: any clip taken during the stream lives on as its own post, separate from whether a full replay was kept.
Want to never miss a streamer live again? Follow them and turn on live notifications, so you catch the next one as it happens instead of hoping for a replay.
Why is there no replay of a stream I watched?
The streamer did not save that broadcast. Recording is the streamer's choice, so not every stream leaves a replay behind.
Can I tip or chat on a replay?
A replay is a recording, so live chat and live tipping happened during the broadcast. You can still tip the creator on their profile and engage with their posts.
Can I clip from a replay?
Clipping is built around the live stream. The best moments are usually clipped while the stream is live, by the streamer or by viewers.
