Watching a DAZN stream offline is straightforward when a title qualifies for an official mobile download. If you need a portable file on a PC, a DAZN video downloader offers a separate desktop workflow for eligible replays and on-demand videos you are authorized to access.
My rule is simple: use DAZN's official option when mobile in-app viewing covers the job. Choose a desktop file workflow when you need an MP4 or MKV for a compatible player, while screen recording remains the slowest route for a full event.
What Is DAZN?
DAZN is a subscription sports streaming service built around live events, replays, highlights, interviews, and documentaries. Its catalog and viewing rights differ by market, sport, and subscription.
DAZN Content
DAZN sports content spans live broadcasts and on-demand programs. The distinction matters for offline viewing because a live event, a replay, and an on-demand feature can have different availability windows.
DAZN Subscription
A paid DAZN subscription unlocks the catalog included with that plan. Offline eligibility is separate: the account, title, device, and event window all influence whether a download control appears.
DAZN lists its US Standard annual upfront plan at $249.99 as of September 2026. That price covers streaming access under the plan; it does not make every title eligible for an offline download.
Note: A DAZN subscription provides streaming access, while offline eligibility is handled separately by plan, title, supported device, and event window.
Supported Regions and Devices
DAZN supports web browsers, mobile apps, smart TVs, streaming players, and game consoles in its active markets. Supported models and app availability can change, so DAZN's current device list is the useful reference before installation.
On a computer, DAZN primarily provides browser streaming. A DAZN PC download that creates a portable video file is different from installing an app or opening the website, and official mobile downloads remain inside the DAZN app.
Does DAZN Support Offline Downloads?
Yes, but availability varies by plan and region. DAZN Ultimate lists downloads for eligible US content, while NFL Game Pass and NCAA College Sports have separate regional subscriptions. Official downloads stay in the supported mobile app and do not provide a general MP4 or MKV export for a computer.
Download Eligibility by Plan and Region in 2026
Check the plan and the country before looking for a download button. These are separate entitlements, not three US download benefits.
- DAZN Ultimate in the US: DAZN lists offline downloads for eligible content. Its US help page says PPV fights cannot be downloaded immediately but may be downloaded one month after the live event.
- NFL Game Pass where available: DAZN describes in-app downloads on supported iOS and Android devices for eligible Game Pass titles. NFL Game Pass on DAZN is not a US subscription.
- NCAA College Sports where available: DAZN lists offline downloads for this separate subscription, which it says is unavailable in the United States.
An official download stays within the app and follows its access window. For an eligible NFL Game Pass title, DAZN instructs mobile users to open the title's three-dot menu, select Download, and find the saved item under Profile > Downloads. For other subscriptions, follow the controls shown for your account and title. An in-app download does not create a portable desktop file.
Download DAZN Videos on PC
A DAZN download on PC needs a different workflow from the official mobile feature. There are three possible offline routes: an eligible in-app mobile download, a desktop downloader for a supported and authorized local file, or real-time screen recording where permitted. Browser or app streaming is an online viewing option.
Choose the Right Offline Method
Start with the output you need. In-app viewing is the lighter choice for an eligible phone or tablet, while a standard file is better suited to compatible desktop players and personal media organization.
| Method | Device | Output | Best for | Main limit |
| Official DAZN mobile download | iOS / Android | In-app copy | Eligible mobile viewing | Plan, title, and expiry limits |
| DAZN app or browser (online) | Supported devices | Stream access | Watching online | Not an offline method |
| KeepStreams for MPD | Windows; verify Mac support | MP4 / MKV | Authorized local files | Replay or on-demand eligibility |
| Screen recording | Computer | Recording file | Short fallback clips | Full runtime |
For a full match, recording costs the full runtime before the file is ready. I would use it for a short clip, not as the default way to save a long replay.
KeepStreams Output and Quality Options
When a portable file is the goal, KeepStreams for MPD is a Windows desktop option to test against an eligible DAZN replay or on-demand title. The product page describes general MPD downloads, but its FAQ currently says the MPD downloader is Windows-only; do not assume that a general KeepStreams Mac installer includes this feature. Check title compatibility, DAZN's terms, and applicable law before proceeding.
My take: when a DAZN replay is compatible, this workflow can fit full matches and multi-replay queues better than real-time recording because the result is a standard local file rather than a recording session.
Use DAZN downloads responsibly:
Sign in with an authorized account and save only content you are authorized to access for personal offline viewing.
Do not redistribute saved files. Follow applicable law and DAZN's terms; the exact boundaries depend on how the content is used.
Save a DAZN Video in Five Steps
Before you start, have an authorized DAZN account, a supported replay or on-demand title, a Windows computer, and enough storage for the selected quality.
Step 1
Launch KeepStreams for MPD and open its built-in browser.
Step 2
Navigate to DAZN in that browser and sign in with your authorized account.
Step 3
Play an eligible replay or on-demand video and wait for analysis. If the supported title is not detected automatically, try the orange download button.
Step 4: If analysis succeeds, choose an available resolution and MP4 or MKV output in the settings window, then select Download Now.
Step 5: Open Downloads to monitor progress, review download speed, and access completed video files.
Why Recordings and Downloads Fail
Most DAZN download failures fall into four groups: account eligibility, device playback, protected playback, or event timing. Match the symptom to the path before changing tools.
- Missing or upgrade-locked button: Open the title in the supported mobile app under the subscribed account. A missing control means no download is offered there; an upgrade prompt points to account entitlement.
- Buffering without an error code: Retry the title on a supported mobile device and a stable connection. If streaming still stalls, offline access cannot begin until playback works.
- Black screen in a recorder: A DAZN DRM or protected-playback handoff can block real-time picture capture even while normal playback continues. Check whether an eligible official download is offered; a desktop file workflow also depends on title support and applicable rules.
- Live event unavailable: Wait until a replay appears in the subscribed catalog. A replay or on-demand item must be accessible in the account before it can enter a download workflow.
FAQs
Q1. Can I record a DAZN program if the screen turns black?
If DAZN plays normally but the recorder captures a black frame, the problem is the capture path rather than the account or event feed. Check whether the title offers an official download. A desktop file workflow also requires title compatibility and compliance with the applicable rules.
Q2. Can I rewatch a DAZN match after it ends?
Yes, when DAZN adds a replay to your subscribed catalog. The replay window is set by the event and content rights, so wait for the replay to appear before starting an offline workflow.
Q3. Why is the DAZN download button missing or locked?
A missing button means that the current plan, title, or device is not presenting an official download option. A locked upgrade button indicates that DAZN is asking for a different entitlement for that item.
Q4. Can I move a DAZN video to an Android phone or iPhone?
Official downloads stay inside the supported DAZN mobile app. Compatible MP4 or MKV files created through a supported desktop workflow can be transferred to a compatible Android or iOS media player.
Q5. Can I save DAZN videos directly on a smart TV or Roku?
DAZN apps on smart TVs and Roku provide streaming access rather than portable MP4 or MKV export. A legally saved local file can play through compatible media-player or casting hardware.
Conclusion
Official DAZN mobile downloads are the simplest choice for eligible titles you plan to watch in the app. For a portable file on a supported PC, test the desktop workflow with an eligible replay or on-demand title; screen recording takes the full program runtime and may fail on protected playback.
The right option follows the task: mobile in-app viewing for travel, browser or app streaming for immediate access, and MP4 or MKV output when you need a compatible local file.
