Clips not saving or clip errors on KICK

Clips are a great way to capture and share the best moments from a stream. If you are having trouble creating clips, finding the ones you have made, or managing them, this guide covers the most common issues.

I cannot create a clip on this stream

If the clip button is missing or greyed out, there are a few possible reasons:

  • Clipping is disabled on the channel. Streamers can choose to turn clipping off for their channel. If clipping is off, no Viewer can clip from that stream

  • You are not logged in. You need to be logged in to your KICK account to create clips

  • The stream just started. You may need to wait a short time after a stream begins before you can create clips

  • The Streamer is not currently live. You can usually only clip from a live stream, not from past content

If you are sure clipping should be available, try refreshing the page or restarting the app.

My clip is not saving

If you tried to create a clip but it does not appear after processing:

  1. Refresh the page or restart the app

  2. Check your clip library. Clips can take a few minutes to process and become available

  3. Make sure you are looking at the right account (if you have multiple)

If the clip never appears, it may have failed during processing. Try clipping the same moment again if the stream is still live.

My clip looks different from what I tried to capture

Clips on KICK capture a fixed amount of stream time before and after the moment you clip. If your clip does not show exactly what you wanted:

  • The moment may have been just before or just after the clip window

  • The Streamer may have moved on to something else by the time the clip is processed

  • There may have been a brief stream interruption that affected what was recorded

In most cases, you can edit the clip after creating it to trim the part you want.

Where do I find my clips?

To find clips you have created:

  1. Log in to your KICK account

  2. Go to your profile or account section

  3. Open your clips library

Streamers can also see clips made of their channel by:

  1. Visiting their Streamer Dashboard

  2. Going to the Clips section

Can I edit my clip after creating it?

Yes. After a clip is created, you can usually:

  • Trim the start and end points

  • Add or change the title

  • Delete the clip

To edit a clip, find it in your clip library and use the editing options provided.

Can I delete clips that other people made of my stream?

If someone has clipped a moment from your stream that you do not want public, you have a few options as the Streamer:

  • Delete the clip from your Streamer Dashboard

  • Disable clipping on your channel to prevent future clips

  • Report the clip if it violates our Community Guidelines

For more on managing clips and your channel, see the Viewer Controls & Streamer Controls article.

Reporting an inappropriate clip

If you come across a clip that breaks our Community Guidelines, you can report it. Reports go to our moderation team for review.

To report a clip:

  1. Open the clip

  2. Click the report or flag option

  3. Select the reason for the report

  4. Submit any additional details that would help our team

For more on what is and is not allowed, see our Community Guidelines.

Clip preview is not loading

If you can see a clip exists, but the preview will not play:

  • Refresh the page

  • Try a different browser or the KICK app

  • Clear your browser's cache and cookies

  • Check your internet connection

If clip previews are not loading anywhere on KICK, check the KICK System Status page.
