  1. The fact that you guys took away to ability to chat for people on console just seems bad to be honest. Not everyone can afford a mobile phone or even a pc, I would love to see this feature come back.

  2. Hello, I would like to request to remove the unfollow button in the home screen from the new update. My home isn't big and has another TV in the side living room and when they use the controller, they sometimes unfollow the current channel I'm watching.

    Please, remove the unfollow button from this home watch screen, it's very unnecessary, counterintuitive and causes a lot of trouble.

  3. This is the same issue people are having on consoles. You can only watch Twitch on the smart tv twitch app, and even if you have a keyboard connected to your TV the app doesn't have the functionality to let you use your keyboard to chat. it would save electricity and the life of our pc's and consoles if we could just use the smart tv, having to chat on a phone is too slow.

  4. Why remove the ability to text while using the PlayStation app. I just don't understand the concept you just made me not want to use twitch even more. I don't understand how removing the ability to type on the PlayStation app helps twitch in any way shape or form if anything it definitely makes things more difficult for people who want to watch on their big TV like me but also occasionally want to send a message to the Creator.

  5. The year is 2023 and we still don't have closed captioning on the PS4 app. This is a failure of accessibility and needs to be rectified ASAP.

  6. Hello there Dev Team and Requirements Engineering!

    I am a Twitch User on PS5 Console.

    a lot of Context Menus are available only by using Analog-Sticks or Dpad.

    (O) Circle for "back"
    (X) Cross/X-Button for "enter/klick"... and so on

    Recently i started facing a lot of proposed channels about a topic i followed with a lot of streamers that simply do not appeal to me or use the topic to get popular and actually streaming completely different things.

    my response to that is usually like this:
    X, Right, Down, X, (3-dots menu), down, X (this channel doesn't interest you?), "are…

  7. Currently as it stands, web based viewers and those on a console (to my knowledge) do no thave the option under quality settings to switch the chat to audio only like you can on the mobile app. It would help those who have lower grade internet at home (like myself) who can't do anything more than watch a stream because it takes up all the internet.

  8. Current app update on xbox requires a user to scan a qr code then use a mobile device in order to type in chat. The ability to type in chat should be native to the Xbox app and not require external devices.

  9. It would be great to go full screen camera so we can have just chatting sessions with our communities, at least since we can’t react to other content like Youtube, console streaming could be easier for everyone

  10. For people that play on Xbox, their streams look a bit plain so it would be nice if we could have some overlays like chat, webcam, and ALERTS!! Just a way to level up Xbox users' streams so we can grow easier.

  11. When I'm watching creators post-live stream - on a laptop or through an Amazon fire stick, you can see where copyright music has been muted in the stream indicated as a red line. Please can this be a feature on the PlayStation Twitch Application as it just mutes with a copyright concern pop up and have no clue how far to fast forward to get the stream audio back. Would be more ideal if an option please.

  16. Please add captions, for channels that put in the work to do them on their streams, on consoles. It shouldn't be too hard and it will vastly improve your service and make it widely more accessible for anyone who can't/ would rather not view only on desktop. Help us support your service by giving us accessibility features on all platforms

  18. Con mucha gente transmitiendo consola y no tener el dinero para cosas como una PC para juegos y una tarjeta de captura, creo que sería una gran idea agregar una forma más creativa de condimentar la transmisión en la consola haciendo superposiciones, tamaño de cámara personalizado y alertas ... Básicamente, para ayudar a la transmisión de la consola a tener ese sabor de lo que tienen cosas como OBS sin tener OBS.

    Además, tener estas cosas en Twitch (Xbox y Playstation) ayudará a que muchos nuevos desarrollos de transmisión se eleven y ganen seguidores, estatus de espectadores e incluso alcancen…

  20. It would be much easier to scrub a video if you could see a live view when fast forwarding. It’s difficult to know where to stop right now because the video completely stops playing while you fast forward.
    An example of when this will be useful is when a streamer says They will be back in a couple minutes. If I could see the video I could see when they come back into frame and stop it immediately instead of having to stop and go, stop and go, to figure out when they come back.
