  1. With crossplay available on so many games now, we need a way to stream Discord voice chat through PS5 straight to Twitch. I can join Discord chat from my PS5, but the voice chat doesn't share to my Twitch stream. I'm the only one people can hear when I'm streaming from my PS5 and we're using Discord Voice Chat. And for the record, team chat sucks, so I definitely don't want that to be my only option.

  2. Twitch users should have more granular control over the content that is presented to them in preview and in search results.
    This would be an Explicit Control that allows a user to enter a tree or list of stream or content tags that they never want presented to them pre-emptively.

    For example, If I feel "transgender" is controversial or sexual in nature and someone tags their stream with it, A user will never have to even see said content in preview or suggested regardless of stream popularity.

    I feel such a control would yield a much happier experience for viewers.

  3. Change the app back to how it use to be on xbox series. It updated and it's horrible. Had to relog in. You have to scan a qr code to chat which is ridiculous. The categories are randomly scattered and in no order which you can't change. Categories and streams are surround by a blinding white box now and everything seems jumbled together. I swear a room full of 3 year Olds designed this new layout. NOTHING about it is better.

  4. My app hasn’t worked for months. It is continuously loading. It has worked 1/100 reloads. This isn’t cool.

  5. Since streamers have started broadcasting in 1440p this message appears on the Xbox App.

    2 streamers I follow now have it.

  6. I had the thought because I and I know plenty others will put a stream on in the background while doing other things. And as I was switching audio devices I had this idea.

    Have a twitch application for amazon echos/dot, to listen to a streams audio. There would need to be other features like notifying you when a streamer is live down the line. But be able to say alexa open twitch... go to (name)... and she will give you a list of possible streamers you meant it sounds like others live, or say list after name to force…

  7. Xbox users need the ability to show their twitch chat on screen So we do not have to look away to talk with our cat it would be way easier to have a transparent window that shows us the chat off to the side. I know this is possible because playstation's app allows them to do that my friend says it all the time and can chat with his viewers without looking away. Please Twitch give us this feature thank you..

  8. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. Bonjour,

    Je souhaite attirer votre attention sur certains problèmes techniques concernant l’application Twitch intégrée sur Xbox Series X.

    Actuellement, l’application présente plusieurs limitations :

    L'encodeur vidéo semble sous-optimal, entraînant des artefacts visuels et une qualité d’image inférieure.
    La limite à 30 FPS réduit considérablement la fluidité pour des jeux rapides.
    Les options de qualité de diffusion, bien que présentes, ne sont pas suffisamment flexibles et adaptées aux différentes bandes passantes.
    Les drop frames et l’instabilité de la diffusion sont fréquents, même sur des connexions solides.
    Ces problèmes contrastent avec l’expérience offerte par d’autres consoles, où l’intégration avec Twitch semble plus…

  12. Bring back old version of the console twitch app now! It was good and it worked and I could watch months of vods and catch up on them. It worked fine, twitch didn’t need to change anything.

  13. Fix the “Watch Again” screen to allow viewers to actually watch again, when it appearing after a livestream it glitches, and does the opposite of its intended function. Now I can’t see any of the content that I showed up (very) late too, because Twitch thinks I’ve seen it all.

  14. 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...

  15. About 4 hours ago(20th Nov 2023) the twitch app on the PS4 received an update. To say it is a backwards step in development is an understatement. the UI is offensive on the eyes (e.g. channels on the main screen have a glaring white box when they are highlighted, the menu button are from the 90s, to name a couple), things are no longer sorted into a logical order, and the best one, you are no longer able to type in chat without scanning a QR code on a separate device and utilising that to interact in chat.
    For a…

  16. 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…

  17. in what world would somebody want a downgraded watered down version of the app where you can't read Chat, the entire other vital half of a stream
    why would you even think to take it away even for a fraction of a second, let alone having versions of the app already without it

    Admin audit: removed unnecessarily derogatory portion of title

  18. Let Twitch viewers on PlayStation/X Box chat in streams again without having to use outside means to chat. Will honestly make the whole thing easier to use

  19. Change the app back to how it was, as the most recent update has ruined the app VOD now no longer has chat visible. The continue watching section is gone and the app can no longer be controlled via remote and must be controlled with a controller. The whole app is much slower to use and feels like it is struggling. Please revert it to how it was as although the last version was not perfect, it worked considerably better than this one.

  20. It's a fools errand to continue down the UI path in which you're going, I mean the entire thing just simply does not work to even a very basic degree from a UI standpoint, buttons don't highlight, everything is like a slug, 85% of twitch features are completely unavailable or inaccessible. Want to full screen? Change resolution? Tough, you can't access the buttons because the UI doesn't show you what is actually being selected.

    It's not acceptable. It's objectively a massive regression from what existed for the better part of a DECADE. The only thing this update has accomplished over…
