  1. The new update on PS5 makes you scan a QR code and forces you to chat thru your phone. Why this was implemented is beyond me. If we wanted to use our phones we would. What if a user doesn't have a phone? The update literally makes watching on PS5 pointless if you like to chat.

  2. Bonehead move, Twitch.

    No one wants to hold their phone and stare down at chat when they are trying to watch a stream on their TV.

    Spend 5 seconds thinking about that. Where are your eyes? On the stream, or down at chat?

    Here's a great idea: Remove chat from PC app and web browser.

    EVERYONE PULL OUT YOUR PHONE SO YOU CAN CHAT.

    Who wants to use a keyboard? Ewww. Or view chat while they are watching stream? ewwww...

  3. Not sure if the PS4 Version was updated or not but I will assume that it was.

    The update basically made the app terrible; no more "Continue Watching", streamers "All Videos" have about 10-12 with no way of looking at all past streams, App no longer remembers the last quality setting you used it always defaults to auto, can't press square to open chat anymore, home screen is a cluttered mess, switching tabs to following or any other feels laggy and looks choppy.

    What happened? The app looks and feels like a ****** smart tv app, please consider rolling back…

  4. Before the update, immediately after you open a stream you can press circle to close the stream info overlay on the video, but now it goes back to the previous page/home page. Annoying how you have to wait a few seconds for it to go away on its own now.

    Secondly, when scrolling through the home page and exploring other streams, just say I click on a stream, then I go back to the home page to continue exploring, it doesn’t save my place to where I was exploring to before, it goes all the way back up the page…

  5. Hide the camera from yourself or give the application the option to put chat and camera in its own column next to the game picture. When you stream the PS5, the camera image is always on top of the game image and in front of the data. A separate column for chat and camera, just like it used to be on PS4.

  6. Not being able to chat on console is an issue. I like the idea of the phone chat option but keep it just that; an option.
    Not being able to tab full screen and chat using Square button is frustrating. Having to search for full screen and chat tab is frustrating.
    Square no longer has an input command.
    New home page seems cluttered and messy compared with previous version.
    In summary, simple is better and being able utilize controller to tab fullscreen and to chat worked just fine in the previous version.

    I do thank you for removing the double…

  8. Please revert the twitch app to the old native console application. The new app resembles the TV interface and is far less user friendly. The update is a complete downgrade with no benefits whatsoever. Some examples on PS5
    - No longer able to chat in the application.
    - We can no longer close the video overlay by pressing Circle. Doing that exits the video we are watching! We now have to wait for a few seconds for the video overlay to fade out on its own.

    This is a horrible update that was completely unnecessary. The old app worked just…

  10. The new ps5 update is so weird first of all you say it should be a “viewer-only" experience but the mobile app shows alot more content (vods-playlist etc..) and one of the most important things to view is chat even if you don’t interact with it and only read it still is a big part of being in a vod,Also the past version was so bad design wise and personally i like the new design and appreciate that the player is alot more flexible in skipping and rewinding but if you want to skip to an exact part you will…

  11. It's no brainer that Twitch team should do this, to give us an option to hide camera side on screen when streaming so we can see everything. it's annoying that I couldn't read what's in top right corner, so I would have to pause everything and move the camera around. Xbox Series X don't do this. Please Twitch, add this important feature so that we can remove the camera side but still visible to viewers/followers, just like Xbox Series X can.

  12. My big issue is the limit on VODS that show up when I specifically go to someone’s channel. Certain streamers I watch stream twice a day 6 days a week and when I miss a game but want to keep up with it I can no longer do that if they are playing different games and the one I keep up with is past the number limit. It seems harmful to views on videos, views for the streamer, and content for the viewers to not be able to find what should even be considered recent because of how limiting VODS…

  13. When going live on PS5 with the PS HD Camera, the camera position options are extremely limited. This is in some part the PS5 UI's issue, but with the help of Twitch Developers, this could be overcome.

    Expand webcam position functionality to allow for finer tuning of where the webcam can be placed (either via the PS UI webcam menu, or even better at the moment of going live and/or when you press the PS button and have options to modify the camera while streaming).
    Also expand the functionality so we don't have to go into menu's to change settings.…

  17. You EVER going to get around to doing this, or are people who can ONLY afford a console s..t out of luck?? ****, most of "YOUR" extensions won't even work for console users.

    So either, stop allowing consoles to stream here, or actually do something to assist them.

    Or the least you can do, is recommend where "we" can go for the ability to stream properly!

    Lastly, "YOU" really need to fix your algorithm for Viewer counts vs Actual Views.

    Way to many console users who stream all the time, can't seem to reach AFFILIATE status, as the count never…

  18. I recorded two clips today both absolutley hilarious, and i trusted this streamking service to do it's part, and it didnt. i lost all audio . Yes i do crossplay, BUT it has recorded there voice as well. im very frustrated . i would like an option to include game chat audio or maybe , rather than muting my audio because it thinks something is wrong, just let us include all audios and if there is dangerous potential for copyright, let us mute other people like we always have. so , my idea is either include the option toi allow…

  20. 트위치 모바일이나 인터넷 사이트에서는 시청시간 뿐만아니라 포인트 상자와 투표로 많은이들이 즐길 시간이 더 늘어납니다. 하지만 플레이스테이션 에서는 시청밖에 즐길 거리가 없어 지루해 질 수 있음으로 플레이스테이션 트위치 어플에서도 모바일과 동일하게 해주었으면 합니다
