The ability to toggle the streamer's on-screen viewer overlay on his screen, to off, or a smaller text, a moved text, or even just a red "Live" icon with a small text in a choice corner of the screen is more than enough. The placement is very intrusive, and misleading to someone who needs to see scanners, maps, health, and so on.

Many a time I have heard games exploding about "This friend is online" via the Xbox, but this does go away in seconds, so to put the Viewers count there, with a large ammount of text, that cant be toggled off seems silly to me.

Request: A feature in the snapp app, that;
1. Can disable the vViewer count overall.
2. Move the Viewer count.
3. Scale the viewer count.
4. Change the overlay to a red "Live" icon with the number only next to it. (Preferably placed via layout by user selection)
5. Simply change the layout to the "Viewers" icon, and the number alone. "Broadcasting" can be replaced with a red dot, and "Viewers" can be replaced with a tiny indicator, if necessary.

Thank you for your time, and I hope this doesn't cross deaf ears.

So as of now, if you're a streamer who uses multiple PSN ID's or XBox One Accounts, for whatever reason (Mine being my wife and I both play, and would both like to stream solo when the other isnt there, on our sites stream), you must jump through hoops to do so.

First you have to disable the currently linked account on the PC, then re-link the one you would like to use, every single time.

There must be a better way. Linking the authorization to the entire console, using broadcast keys, any number of other solutions.

The only other alternative is for the individual streamer to go drop $1000+ on a capture card, and streaming capable PC, which not a solution, at least not a realistic one for many of us, otherwise we'd just be PC Streamers.

there has to be some way to intercept the signal just before twitch receives it in order to show the viewers. it really puts console streamers at a bigger disadvantage than the pc streamer. As its easier to keep attention with overlays and on screen events. all console streamers dream of having a capture card and a baller pc with god tier specs. some of us pick up the knock off laptop, some of us have hard times in life, some just go the extra mile and do both. just some thing cause the current way to do it causes to much lag and stutter.

The twitch app on the Xbox One isn't the best, For instance, when you start your broadcast, you have to keep restarting until it says "lagging", If it says your "live", you actually aren't. Also when snapping your messages and stuff, the stream would sometimes crash! Also, how about adding an option to keep your camera on screen when you go off the game and you get the pause screen, then you could keep on interacting better with your viewers! These problems are not ones i am only having myself, virtually everyone i have spoke to, who use it, have said the same thing.

The Twitch app for Xbox One needs to be redone. With the new Xbox One update coming in Spring this year, snap mode is no longer going to be a feature. There for when you unsnap, you have this broadcasting bar at the bottom of the screen that we can not move, witch covers up importen stuff for the game, rather is health, to dialog and so on. It really makes it hard to stream some games when you cant see there options. Now I wont lie, there going to be other option for broadcasting coming to Xbox and they let us move and that bar as well as let us see chat. But I like twitch more, and would love to keep broadcasting through twitch, but Twitch needs to update the broadcasting for Xbox so we can move that bar to some where else on the screen and able to see chat again. It going to be hard to on a streamer who only has an Xbox and no why to read chat along with other stuff.

Tons of PS4 and XB1 integrated Streamers complain and feel bad that when they have to switch games, the stream will go offline. This idea would make sure that once a streamer who uses the PS4 and/or the XB1 App to broadcast switches games, it will keep the screen in the "blue shapes" or "green environment" mode of casting UNTIL they go to a different game, where a different game will be streamed OR go to the "Stop Broadcast" button, where it would intentionally end the stream. However, when they switch games, they would have to go to their dashboard and change the title to show what game is being played. This kind of plan supports all starting streamers when they want to switch games so that their stream does not go offline because some people wanna try out marathons yet this disconnection ruins the marathon whatsoever. We need to help streamers overcome this issue.

Hi, I would like to throw in another Feedback request for the Xbox One Twitch Experience. I have Signed up for the Beta via the Xbox Insider app. The one Key thing I find is really a hassle about the app is:

1. The Stream Overlay Bar, the Bar that tells you the time your live and how many viewers you have.

I have noticed a few people have already put in Idea requests for this and it has fallen unto deaf ears. One post that has been up here since November 8th 2015 stating my same issue has no resolution still. That is 5 years, and I feel something needs to be done.

So now to move into my rant about the blue overlay bar. Now the issue I have is basically every time I stream I have the blue bar show up. Now the only options I have with this bar is it blocks key elements of a game. For example blocking a map and or key text or a health bar and ammo bar. This is sort of annoying when trying to play a game.

Another issue that I notice with the overlay bar is that there is no way to interact with chat. The only customization options are to move the bar around in different locations on the screen this is not enough. I feel we should have the option to remove the bar, change the visibility or even change it to a small chat / overlay bar that can be moved or visibility can be changed. The reason why I ask for this is because it is a hassle trying to use different devices to interact with chat. For example a phone, computer or Ipad. Plus the chat interfaces on these devices refresh if you click out of them. This means I have missed chats and the ability to interact.

I am posting this feedback again hoping that something gets done or someone gives a reason why this hasn't been done.

I think the twitch app as well since mixer is gone can be a very powerful streaming asset for console users if only they made some key changes.

Hopefully something gets done and my post doesn't sit for 5 or more years like others.
