How to make and edit Twitch clips (desktop)
Start watching the streamer you want to clip on twitch.tv from your desktop browser. When you are ready to clip, move your cursor over the playback area and click the Clip (alt+x) button in the media controls along the bottom.

How to download Twitch clips
Right now, if you want to view your Twitch clips, this is only possible on desktop—unless you want to use Twitch in your mobile browser in desktop mode. On mobile, you can only see Twitch clips published on your channel, from your streams.
If you’re talking about clips that you made from others’ streams, this is currently impossible. You can only see your own streams’ clips on your account profile.
Go to twitch.tv in your browser and click your profile picture in the top-right.

Absolutely. If you’re a Twitch streamer, you can moderate all of the Twitch clips made of you during your streams, and take down any of the ones you don’t want floating around on the platform. However, if that clip has been downloaded and shared on another platform, there isn’t much you can do about that.
