Periscope premium link generator
You have a link to a Periscope broadcast and want to save the video locally. Periscope was a live streaming service that allowed real-time broadcasts, but official downloading is not supported. Replays were only available for 24 hours, and the service shut down in 2021. Trying to download a Periscope video directly can be frustrating due to these limitations. Premium Downloader helps you retrieve Periscope video files from your links quickly and reliably.
About Periscope
Periscope was a live video streaming app acquired by Twitter, allowing users to broadcast and watch live events from around the world. Broadcasts were automatically saved for replay for 24 hours after the stream ended. Users could share links to their live or recent broadcasts. The service was discontinued in March 2021, but many archived broadcasts still exist via third-party mirrors. It was popular for news, events, and personal live streams. Accessing the original video files often requires specialized tools due to the platform's restrictions.

- Streams are only viewable in real time or during the brief replay window.
Our generator sits in front of limits like these for the hosts we serve. Periscope is not one of them right now: none of our premium accounts can fetch its files. Paste a link above and leave your email to be told when that changes. See pricing.

Periscope downloads: questions people ask
Can I still download Periscope videos after the service shut down?
Yes, if the video has been archived by a third-party service or if you have a working link from before the shutdown. Premium Downloader can retrieve the underlying video file from many such archived Periscope broadcasts, as long as the link is still accessible.
Why are Periscope downloads often slow or failing?
Periscope never provided an official download feature, so any existing video file may be hosted on unofficial mirrors with limited bandwidth. Additionally, the original streaming protocol (HLS) can complicate direct file extraction. Premium Downloader optimizes these connections to give you a stable download.
How long after a broadcast can I use a Periscope link to download?
Originally, official Periscope replays were available for only 24 hours after the stream ended. Now that the service has shut down, many links are dead. However, some third-party archives preserve the video indefinitely. If your link still works, it likely points to one of those archives. Premium Downloader can handle both official and archived links.
What does a Periscope video URL look like?
Typical Periscope URLs have the format https://www.periscope.tv/w/<broadcast_id> or https://www.periscope.tv/<username>/<broadcast_id>. Sometimes they use the shorter domain pscp.tv. The broadcast ID is a unique string of letters and numbers. You can copy this link from the broadcast page or from social media shares.
How much does downloading from Periscope cost?
We cannot serve Periscope right now, so there is no price for it. Paste a Periscope link and leave your email, and we will tell you when it is supported. For the hosts we do serve, each file has one price, set by its host class and its size, or is taken from a package's quota. The pricing page lists those hosts and their prices.
Is it safe to use this Periscope generator?
Transfers run over HTTPS end to end. We do not store the files you download or keep a record of your download history beyond what is needed to deliver the link you requested.
