YouTube Most Replayed graph for any video

Paste a YouTube link to see the “Most replayed” graph and the timestamps of its peaks: the parts viewers rewatch most. No extension, no sign-in, and it works on your phone.

Works with watch, youtu.be, Shorts and live links. Free, no sign-in.

What the Most replayed graph shows

When you start seeking in a YouTube video, a curve appears above the progress bar. Each point is a short slice of the video; the curve rises where viewers replayed that slice more often. YouTube calls it the most replayed parts of a video.

It measures rewatching, not total views. A peak usually means a punchline, a reveal, a key answer or a play people want to see twice. A curve that falls from the start is normal: many viewers leave early, and the graph still marks the parts that pull them back.

Why Most replayed is not showing

According to YouTube Help, the graph may not appear when:

  • The video is too new or has too few views. YouTube does not publish the threshold; small videos often never get a graph.
  • The channel has an active strike.
  • The content may be inappropriate, or YouTube finds the video ineligible for another reason.

In our experience it is also missing on Shorts, while a stream is still live, and in most players embedded on other sites, and some browser extensions that change the player hide it. If the tool above finds no graph, YouTube has none for that video.

How to see it on your phone and computer

  • Computer: start seeking: hover over or drag the progress bar. The graph appears above it, and the higher the curve, the more that part was replayed.
  • YouTube app: tap the video, then press and drag the playhead. The graph appears while you drag.
  • Any browser: paste the link into the tool above to get the peaks as timestamps you can open.

How to turn a replay peak into a clip

A peak marks where viewers came back, not where the clip should start. For a short-form clip:

  • Start at the first sentence of the thought that leads into the peak, so a new viewer understands it.
  • End when the moment lands: the answer, the punchline or the reaction. Most strong clips run 30 to 90 seconds; see how long a clip should be.
  • Check the second and third peaks too. The top peak is often the moment everyone already clipped.
  • No graph? Look for chapters, a change of speaker, laughter or a raised voice. Our guide to finding viral moments covers the other signals.

FastClip does this for you: import a YouTube video and it opens on the strongest replay peak, lists the others as suggested moments, and burns in captions when you export. Videos without a graph get moments picked from the transcript or the loudest parts.

Questions

What does “Most replayed” mean on YouTube?

It is a graph above the progress bar that shows which parts of a video viewers watch again. The higher the curve, the more people rewound or skipped to that part. It is built from how often viewers replay each part.

Why is the Most replayed graph not showing?

YouTube’s help page gives three reasons: the channel has an active strike, the content may be inappropriate, or YouTube finds the video ineligible for another reason, such as being too new or having too few views. In our experience it is also missing on Shorts and in most players embedded on other sites. This tool shows the same data whenever YouTube has it.

How do I see Most replayed on my phone?

In the YouTube app, tap the video, then press and drag the playhead: the graph appears above the bar while you drag. Or paste the link into this page, which works in any mobile browser.

Is there a Most replayed extension or API?

You do not need an extension: this page reads the graph from the video link. YouTube’s official Data API does not return the graph. The data is part of the public watch page, which is how open-source tools such as yt-dlp read it (its “heatmap” field) and how this tool works.

Can I see Most replayed for someone else’s video?

Yes. The graph is public for any video that has one. Clipping someone else’s video still needs their permission or a clipping campaign that grants it.

How do clippers use the Most replayed graph?

The peaks are the moments viewers already chose. Clippers start at the beginning of the thought that leads into a peak and end when it lands, so the clip makes sense on its own. FastClip reads the same data when you import a YouTube video and opens on the strongest peak.

Clip the moment, not the whole video

FastClip opens a YouTube video on its most replayed moment, adds word-timed captions and exports a 9:16 clip. Free, no credit card. More in the YouTube clip maker and the other free tools.
