How to delete a Clip on Twitch Mobile?
Unlike the Desktop version, the clips don’t appear directly in the mobile version, but they display the popular clips only. You can check the same in your channel settings. However, since it wouldn’t be possible to access all your clips on Twitch mobile, you can use a hack by opening Twitch in Desktop mode on a browser on your phone.
Can Editors delete Clips on Twitch?
Short answer – Yes. Moderators have the same access as account administrators except that they cannot kick out the administrator’s access. Vice-versa is true though. Other than editors, if you create a clip towards someone you follow, that person can remove the clip from his account too.
Do Twitch moderators get paid?
Typically Twitch moderators are not paid. But some moderators are paid in kind if not money.
