TL;DR: You can officially download Weverse VOD for offline viewing if you have Digital Membership (up to 30 saves per month and each save plays for 30 days in-app). LIVE and most replays aren’t downloadable.
Real-time auto-subtitles are available for LIVEs/replays with Digital Membership. The Weverse TV app is being sunset—use AirPlay/Chromecast to watch on TV. You can also use KeepStreams to download Weverse videos without limits.
I learned most of this the hard way on a packed Tokyo train—right when the chorus hit, my LIVE froze. I’m a thirty-something associate editor who codes for fun and treats sports nights like they’re playoffs, so I need a setup that just works.
I tested the official download Weverse video route, tweaked subtitle settings, and rebuilt my TV flow after the app changes. I document each step like a developer so you don’t have to.
- LIVE: Real-time livestreams. No official offline download.
- LIVE Replay: Archive of a past LIVE. Generally streaming-only; offline availability follows official rules.
- VOD: On-demand videos. Official offline download supported with Digital Membership (limits apply).
- Rental VOD: Time-limited paid rentals; offline rules depend on service terms.
Quick Start: What You Can—and Can’t—Download
If you subscribe to Digital Membership, you can save VOD items for offline viewing inside the app. You get up to 30 saves per month, and each saved VOD will play offline for 30 days. I plan my offline queue before flights so I’m not scrambling at the gate.
LIVE and most LIVE replays aren’t eligible for official offline saving. I always check the content label—VOD vs LIVE/replay—before assuming I can download it.
A: Yes—VOD only for Digital Membership users, with monthly ticket limits and a 30-day offline window.
Weverse Digital Membership: Price, How to Subscribe, and What You Get
How Pricing Works Across Communities?
Digital Membership is monthly and per-community (artist-specific). The actual USD price appears on the subscription panel inside each artist’s community at checkout and is paid with Jelly (website uses regular Jelly; the app uses Digital-Membership-only Jelly).
If you don’t cancel, it auto-renews monthly. You must have at least 20 Jelly on the website before subscribing.
How to Subscribe and How Payment Works?
You can subscribe in the app (Membership button on the community Home) or on the website (Subscribe to Digital Membership on the community page). Payment uses Weverse’s Jelly system; on the app you’ll see Digital-Membership-only Jelly for checkout, while web uses regular Jelly.
Auto-renew is standard, and you can cancel in your account settings. I prefer purchasing on web for clarity, then managing on mobile.
Current website Jelly options include: Jelly 4 = $0.99, Jelly 8 = $1.99, Jelly 40 = $9.99, Jelly 80 = $19.90, Jelly 120 = $29.49, Jelly 200 = $49.49. These are reference prices for the currency you’ll spend; the Digital Membership USD amount still appears on the subscription panel for each community.
Plan / Item | How price is shown (USD) | Billing cadence | Key benefits (summary) | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
Digital Membership (per community) | Shown on the in-app subscription panel (paid with Jelly) | Monthly auto-renew | VOD offline downloads (up to 30 saves/month, playable 30 days), ad-free on LIVEs/VODs (where applicable), real-time auto-subtitles for LIVEs/eligible replays, badge/icon, members-only content (varies) | Website uses regular Jelly; app uses Digital-Membership-only Jelly. Requires ≥20 Jelly on website before subscribing. |
Free Weverse account | $0 | — | Basic viewing/interaction of public content | No Digital/Shop membership perks. |
Official Membership (shop) | USD listed on product page (e.g., aespa $23.61/year) | Annual | Merch/pre-sale and fan-club benefits (varies by artist) | A separate program sold on Weverse Shop; not the same as Digital Membership. |
Jelly packs (website) | Official USD list (e.g., Jelly 40 $9.99, Jelly 80 $19.90, etc.) | One-time / auto-charge options | Digital currency for subscriptions/TVOD/DM | Reference for the currency you spend at checkout; membership price still appears on the subscription panel. |
What You Actually Get?
Digital Membership unlocks VOD offline saving (30 saves/month; 30-day playback per save) and real-time auto-subtitles for LIVEs and eligible replays. In many communities you’ll also see a member badge/icon and occasional members-only posts or videos (details can vary by artist). I rely on the captions during bilingual streams and keep my offline list stocked for commutes.
Digital Membership vs. Official Membership (Weverse Shop)
They’re separate. Digital Membership affects watching/interaction features inside Weverse. Official Membership on Weverse Shop focuses on merch, pre-sales, and offline privileges. I keep both distinct so I don’t expect shop perks from a Digital subscription.
To understand how Weverse displays USD on product pages, here’s a shop example (not the Digital Membership): aespa | MY MEMBERSHIP = USD $23.61 per year on Weverse Shop. This annual shop membership is a different program from the monthly Digital Membership inside the Weverse app.
A: No. The USD price is shown on each artist community’s subscription panel and is paid with Jelly; website uses regular Jelly, the app uses Digital-Membership-only Jelly. Auto-renews monthly unless canceled.
Download Rules & Limits (Read This Before Your Trip)
You can save up to 30 VODs per month. Each saved VOD remains playable for 30 days in the app. I queue long interviews or documentaries first, because they’re the most painful to stream over spotty networks.
If your Digital Membership expires, offline playback pauses until you renew. After renewal, you can resume viewing and re-download titles if needed. If you switch phones, you’ll simply download again on the new device from your library. I clear space at the end of each month so I don’t hit storage limits mid-trip.
Before you manage files, know where they live in the app. Here’s the single path I keep handy:
- More → Saved videos (view/delete offline files)
The biggest trap is confusing LIVE/replay with VOD—only VOD supports official offline saving. Another common mistake is assuming a desktop can download; desktop/web is streaming-only. If you want control over quality, set it before you save:
- More → Settings → Offline download resolution
When should you use each path? This quick view prioritizes the official route.
Scenario \ Content | LIVE | LIVE Replay | VOD |
---|---|---|---|
Commute/Offline flight (iOS/Android) | Stream only | Stream only | Download for offline (Digital Membership) |
At home on Wi-Fi (Desktop/Web) | Stream | Stream | Stream (no official offline on desktop) |
Big-screen TV | Cast (AirPlay/Chromecast) | Cast (AirPlay/Chromecast) | Cast or download on phone then play offline |
Step-by-Step: How to Download Weverse VOD on iOS/Android?
Save a VOD Offline
You’ll do this a lot, so get the muscle memory right. First, choose your resolution so you don’t waste bandwidth or space later. Then save the video.
- More → Settings → Offline download resolution (set quality first)
- Play the VOD → ⋮ (More) → Save for offline (add to your offline list)
I remove old files under Saved videos when I’m running low on storage, and I refresh the saved list before long trips.
Troubleshooting (Button Missing, Lapsed Membership, DRM)
If the Save for offline button is missing, you’re likely on a LIVE/replay or your Digital Membership isn’t active. Update the app in case the UI changed. If playback fails on a new laptop or browser, remember paid media relies on DRM—a device that fails a DRM test won’t play protected videos. I always test a travel laptop in advance.
A: It only appears on VOD with an active Digital Membership. LIVE/most replays don’t support official offline saving. Update the app and re-open the VOD from the ⋮ (More) menu.
Subtitles on Weverse: Real-Time, Replays and VOD
With Digital Membership, LIVEs and eligible replays can show auto-generated real-time subtitles. Languages and timing can vary, and short delays are normal during fast speech. I flip subtitles on during artist Q&As and switch languages when needed.
How to Turn Subtitles on (App and Web)?
Enable captions directly in the player. Introduce the habit now so you don’t hunt through menus mid-stream.
- App: Tap ⋮ (More) on the player → Subtitles → choose language.
- Web: Tap Settings (⚙️) → Subtitles → pick language.
For VOD, enable subtitles in the player before or during playback; offline applies to VOD only.
How Subtitles Interact with Offline Downloads?
If your goal is how to download videos from Weverse with subtitles, remember the boundary: offline saving applies to VOD. Turn on the subtitle language you want in the player, then save that VOD for offline. I do this the night before a flight so I’m not tapping menus at the gate.
A: Enable subtitles in the player, then save the VOD for offline (Digital Membership required). LIVE can’t be saved offline.
Watching on TV After the Weverse TV App Sunset
Weverse has begun discontinuing TV apps (Apple TV first), and the recommended way to watch on a big screen is casting from your phone. I rebuilt my living-room setup around casting, and it’s been smooth once the network is stable.
AirPlay (iPhone/iPad/Mac)
Cast from iPhone/iPad/Mac once everything is on the same Wi-Fi and the video is playing.
- Connect iPhone/iPad/Mac and TV to the same Wi-Fi
- Start playback in the Weverse app → tap AirPlay → select your TV
I restart the TV and router if I see stutters, and I avoid congested 2.4GHz networks during live events.
Chromecast (Android/Chrome)
Chromecast is just as straightforward if you’re on Android or using Chrome on desktop.
- Connect phone/PC and TV/Chromecast to the same Wi-Fi
- Start playback → tap the Cast icon → pick your device
I prefer 5GHz Wi-Fi for stability and keep other heavy downloads paused during big shows.
Common Casting Issues and Quick Fixes
If casting connects but fails to play, check for HDCP or Wi-Fi isolation settings on the router. Update your TV firmware and make sure the phone’s OS is current. I keep a short “power-cycle ritual” (router → Chromecast/TV → phone) that solves nine out of ten glitches.
A: Weverse is sunsetting TV apps; use AirPlay/Chromecast from the mobile app instead.
Alternatives & Comparisons
When official offline doesn’t cover your case (e.g., a replay you want to rewatch offline), people look for a Weverse video downloader, browser add-ons, or command-line tools. Updates on the platform can break unofficial methods, and subtitle handling/maximum resolution vary widely.
I evaluate tools like I review code: stability, subtitles, output quality, and whether they respect DRM and the Terms. If you control the rights to a non-DRM clip or you’re archiving your own content, weigh the trade-offs carefully.
If you’re comparing options, I found a safe Weverse downloader named KeepStreams Downloader.

How to Download Weverse Videos with KeepStreams?
KeepStreams can not only download videos from Weverse, but also download videos from Weverse with subtitles. You can choose to remux the subs into the video or just extract them into external SRT files.
With KeepStreams, you can download videos from subscription streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, as well as video-sharing sites like Instagram, TikTok, and other social media platforms like Vimeo. Of course, with KeepStreams, you can also easily download Weverse videos.
Here's a guide with screenshots on how to use KeepStreams. If you want to try the free trial to save your favorite Weverse videos in 1080p, follow them:
1. Install KeepStreams and launch it. Enter the official site of Weverse to the top bar.
2. Log in to your own Weverse account to get access to the content you want to download.
3. Play the video you want to download, and you will find the grey download icon turns orange.
4. Click the download icon and wait for the analysis for seconds. Then customize the download settings in the window. Click on "Download Now".
5. Your videos will be done in several minutes. Go to "Downloading" to check the status.
When the download is done, you can find the Weverse downloads on your Windows PC or Mac in compatible MP4/MKV format. In this way, you can save them forever and transfer them to any device you like.
Compliance & Safety
Paid media on Weverse uses DRM. Circumventing DRM or redistributing content violates the Terms and may break the law. I keep downloads for personal use inside the official app and avoid anything that pushes me to bypass protections.
Use strong passwords, avoid untrusted “download sites,” and don’t share credentials. If you subscribe on web, confirm renewal and cancellation settings; if you purchase on the app, keep the store receipts for your records. I review subscriptions monthly so nothing renews by accident.
Conclusion
I wrote this guide to make your next stream or flight as stress-free as possible: if it’s VOD, I download it with Digital Membership and watch offline for 30 days; if it’s LIVE or most replays, I stream or cast to the TV.
I keep real-time subtitles on for LIVEs/replays, and I plan my Jelly balance before subscribing because pricing is shown per community at checkout. I also stick to the rules of DRM and Terms to use KeepStreams—so I enjoy the show instead of troubleshooting.
