By the far the most user friendly software to use.
As a housewife at home looking to start a YouTube channel for fun with absolutely zero editing experience, it was so easy for me to teach myself via their YouTube channel. It takes the tediousness out of editing and encourages creativity. As long as Kapwing is around, I will be using their software.

Love this site.
As an English Foreign Language Teacher, this site helps me to quickly subtitle interesting videos that I can use in class. The students love the videos, and the subtitles really help them to learn new vocabulary as well as better understand and follow the video.

Excellent subtitling features
[It] works perfectly for me. Have been using Kapwing for a year or so, and their automatic subtitle tool gets better and better every week, it's rare that I have to correct a word. Keep up the good work!

Frequently Asked Questions

Bob, our kitten, thinking

Is there a Kapwing watermark on exports?

If you are using Kapwing on a Free account then all exports — including from the Twitch clips to TikTok tool — will contain a watermark. Once you upgrade to a Pro account the watermark will be completely removed from all the videos and images you create.

Is it free to try Kapwing's Repurpose Twitch to TikTok tool?

Yes, Kapwing's Repurpose Twitch to TikTok tool is free for all users and includes preset aspect ratios for quick and easy resizing. However, a Pro account is needed to get 4k video quality and unlimited auto-subtitling.

What is the right video size for TikTok?

TikTok recommends 1080 x 1920 with an aspect ratio of 9:16. Creators can get these exact dimensions by clicking the "Resize Project" in the right-hand toolbar and then selecting the "TikTok Video (9:16)" preset size from the dropdown menu.

What are some of the most popular game streams on TikTok?

Over the years, TikTok has transformed from a platform filled with choregraphed dance videos to a hub of eclectic content, including the ever-popular video game streams. Some of the most highly viewed games on TikTok are Garena Free Fire, Roblox, Fortnite, Minecraft, PUBG Mobile, and Genshin Impact.

Streamers clip their Twitch streams for TikTok, arranging a vertical layout of themselves on top of their game stream. Creators also post their adjusted Twitch clips on Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts for increased viewership.

How do you get a TikTok stream key?

You need at least 1,000 followers on TikTok in order to get a stream key. If you have a stream key, go to TikTok on desktop and click "Go Live," and then "Go Live" again to confirm. TikTok will display your stream key. You can use this sequence of numbers and letters to stream from Open Broadcaster Software (OBS). In OBS, go to File > Settings > Stream, then copy & paste the server key as a "Custom" service. You'll also need to change your canvas in OBS to 1080 x 1920.

Your TikTok stream key changes ever day, so you need to repeat this process daily to ensure your stream goes through to TikTok. If this method doesn't work for you, try networking with a TikTok employee on Twitter or LinkedIn to ask them for help, as they can look up the stream key for any account.

How do I make Twitch clips that are worth sharing on TikTok?

One key strategy is to not leave your streaming sessions completely up to chance. You want to approach each stream with the viewer in mind and imagine yourself as a host or entertainer. What would the game's audience find interesting? What would excite them or make them laugh?

Before you stream, brainstorm common in-game events and how you might add funny commentary or execute a bit of eye-catching gameplay. This way, you're more likely to naturally produce memorable moments you can clip and post on TikTok.

How do I find my Twitch clips?

You can find your Twitch clips in the Clips page of your Creator Dashboard. Go to Creator Dashboard > Content > Clips. Here, you can sort and filter clips, edit titles, and watch or share clips.

How to post Twitch clips to TikTok

Follow the below five steps to take a Twitch clip and post it onto TikTok:

  1. Download Your Twitch Clip: Save clips from Twitch by selecting “Share” and then “Download.”
  2. Resize for TikTok: Use an editing tool like Kapwing’s Twitch to TikTok converter to adjust the clip to a vertical 9:16 format.
  3. Highlight Key Moments: Manually trim your clip to TikTok’s time limits (15-60 seconds) and focus on the most engaging parts, or use Kapwing's Repurpose Studio to find the best clips for you.
  4. Customize for TikTok: Use TikTok-specific features like overlays, music, or text to enhance your clip further.
  5. Upload to TikTok: Post your video directly through the TikTok app, adding a caption, hashtags, and any relevant tags to increase visibility.

What aspect ratios can Kapwing's Clip Maker resize to?

Kapwing's Twitch to TikTok tool is built for social media, allowing you to easily resize content to fit any platform.

  • 9:16 (TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, LinkedIn Short-form videos)
  • 16:9 (YouTube)
  • 1:1 (Instagram post square)
  • 4:5 (Instagram post portrait)
