How to Clip a Snapchat Video

Snapchat does not let you download someone else's Snaps from inside the app. If you have a shareable Snapchat video link, you can import it like a YouTube or Instagram URL. For saved Snaps on your phone, export to your camera roll first.

Method 1: Paste the Snapchat URL (Slidekick)

With Slidekick:

1. Copy the public Snapchat video URL.
2. Paste it into Slidekick — same workflow as YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram.
3. Trim to the exact moment in the visual editor.
4. Export as MP4 or GIF, or send GIFs straight to Google Slides.

Slidekick handles URL import, screen recording, file uploads, and exports to MP4 or GIF — with Google Slides integration built in.

Method 2: Save to Memories, Export to Camera Roll, Then Trim

1. Open the Snap in your Memories.
2. Tap the export button and save to your camera roll.
3. Use your phone's built-in editor (iOS Photos or Android Gallery) to trim the segment.

Limitations: Only works for Snaps you have saved to Memories. You must export the full video before trimming.

Method 3: Screen Record, Then Trim

1. Play the Snapchat video.
2. Start a screen recording on your device.
3. Stop the recording after the segment you need, then trim the file — or upload it to Slidekick to trim and export.

Limitations: Notifications and UI may appear in the recording. The sender may be notified if you screen record a Snap in some cases.

If you clip Snapchat videos regularly, Slidekick lets you paste the URL, trim visually, and export as MP4 or GIF — no install.
