Downloads and the desktop app

Clips and overlays are rendered on our servers and then downloaded to your computer. In the browser they arrive as ordinary downloads, and the desktop app saves them differently.

In the browser

When a render is ready you select Download on the clip, or Download video or Download chat overlay in its menu. The file is saved through your browser, so it lands wherever your browser puts downloads. A timeline export arrives as a ZIP. See Clips and Timeline maker.

The desktop app

The desktop app is the same browser editor in a native shell, not a separate product. Cutting clips, reading the chat graph and rendering overlays all work the same way. What changes is how it touches your machine:

• Exports go straight to a folder on disk.
• Saving uses a native Save dialog instead of the browser's.

Installing takes no account. You sign in with Twitch inside the app when you are ready to edit. The app is the same editor and needs a plan or an active trial to edit. See Plans, quotas and billing.

Install it

Builds are on the download page for three systems.

The page marks the card for the system you are on with Your system. All builds are published on GitHub Releases, and each release has notes. If no build has been published for a system, its card says so.

If none of that matters to you, the editor in the browser does the same job with nothing to install.
