TikTok Live Archive: Easy Ways To Rewatch Live On TikTok [2025]

A TikTok live archive is a saved recording of your past livestream. This is a useful feature allowing creators to review, download, and clip their live videos. So how to access this feature and rewatch your live stream on TikTok? Join GDT Agency to discover the answer today!

Can You Rewatch Livestreams On TikTok?

Yes, you can, but not always.

TikTok has a built-in feature called TikTok LIVE replays that allow creators to view, download, and clip their own past live videos for up to 30 days.

For your own streams, you can definitely rewatch them if you’ve enabled the save feature within your LIVE settings.

However, for someone else’s livestream, the rewatching ability depends entirely on whether the creator or any other viewer saved and shared the recording.

If they saved the video and posted it publicly on their TikTok channel, YouTube channel, or another platform, you may find what you need!

However, if their live stream wasn’t stored or shared publicly, you won’t be able to view it after it ends.

How to find someone’s TikTok live archives

There’s no direct archive feature for viewing other people’s past livestreams. However, there are several ways you might be able to find a recording:

Tip #1: Check the creator’s TikTok

Creators often edit and upload highlights or even the full recording of their livestreams as regular TikTok videos. 

Scroll through their recent posts and you may find the livestream you want to rewatch.

Tip #2: Check their bio links

Look for links to their YouTube channel, Facebook, or other social media platforms in their TikTok bio.

Many creators upload full recordings of their streams to other platforms for repurposing or archival purposes.

Tip #3: Search online

Use search engines like Google and try searching for combinations like:

[Creator's Name] TikTok Live [Date]

Or:

[Creator's Name] [Topic of the Live] Livestream

Sometimes fan accounts, forums, or video-sharing sites might have short clips or even full recordings of the livestream.

Tip #4: Use a 3rd-party TikTok live recorder

There are third-party browser extensions or software that can help you automatically record TikTok live streams of creators you follow, such as Michele0303/TikTok Live Recorder or Rewatch LIVE app.

Tip #5: Check fan communities

Check dedicated fan pages, Discord servers, or subreddits related to the creator. 

Fans often record and share livestreams within these communities.

Pro Tip: Pay attention to creators’ announcements about their streaming schedules and turn on their LIVE notifications if you don’t want to miss out.
