  2. Ever streamed from console Twitch app ? If you did, you know you can not do much on this app. I myself started to stream from xbox one to twitch and depending on what game I play I would like to have the layer, that shows how many viewers are watching, somewhere else on the screen. So, my suggestion would be to add settings that allow us to choose where we want this layer to be. Like top left, top middle, top right, bottom left, bottom middle or bottom right, that way we would be able to change it depending…

  3. Disable autoplaying videos in the twitch app. No video should ever start playing unless I manually select it, especially when I simply load the app and it just starts playing something random. I don't care about your featured streamers or games. Stop it.

  4. Can y’all add it to we’re we can capture thing on our consoles while using Xbox Twitch app cause when we use the app it doesn’t allow us to capture things on our consoles and when we’re done using it we are having to turn our consoles off and then back on in order to capture stuff.

  5. Partner with nintendo or something to make a twitch app on the Nintendo Switch and then you can make a "twitch for kids" that will filter out any over 18 age streams.

  6. For a game title that is launched across different platforms, can we have the platform filter as well?

  7. For example: I love playing TESV: Skyrim.
    The broadcaster's overlay used to be in the lower center of the screen, blocking view of the HEALTH bar. Now it's in the lower right of the screen, blocking view of the MONEY during trading. I cannot use the current Xbox One Twitch app to directly stream Skyrim.

    Pick any game. Pick your favorite game. Its Heads Up Display and various menus shows critical information to the player during the process of playing the game. The current Twitch broadcasting overlay takes access to that information away from a streamer. We want access to…

  8. It would be cool if we could see FFZ and BTTV chrome extension emotes on console. Id love to be able to see and use these emotes on my console just like i can on my pc. Its not as good to read chat emotes as words rather than seeing them as actual emotes. I know these are google chrome extensions, but im sure something could be worked out.

  9. Please please please update the xbox app. Some people prefer twitch for broadcasting but not being able to have a camera be available takes away from the stream quality. I am close to becoming affiliated and would like to continue working with twitch as one day i would like to get into pc. But its hard when the app is so out dated compared to mixer.

  10. At the moment, PS4 overlay is not the best, if there was an integration where people could customise where they want chat, recent donations, and a streamlabs connection, it would allow for better looking streams from PlayStation, and can get the viewers more involved.
    It would work something like OBS on PC.

  11. On the Xbox One your stream capabilities are way better than Mixer but you are losing people to Mixer on Xbox for 2 reasons. Number one is chat does not show up on screen like Mixer does. Number 2 is the app on Xbox will only allow a kinect to work with the stream and Mixer will allow most any webcam. I feel if you fix just these 2 basic issues you would get way more people to the Twitch platform than ever before. Especially with people looking for live options other than YouTube and Facebook. Just thought I would…

  12. When streaming from the Xbox One, any music playing from apps such as Pandora, Spotify, etc. isn't picked up and is mute to the viewers. Allowing viewers to hear music would add much more entertainment value to the inferior console broadcasts, making both broadcaster and viewer much happier.

  13. cheering is currently easy PC. please reconfigure twitch chat commands to make cheering possible on PlayStation, Xbox, and Mobile. I am willing to go to the web browser to buy bits. cheering on other apps should be as easy as building a chat bot.

  14. Now that Mixer allows for streaming at 1080p and bitrate around 4000 (seems to be around that). Isn't it time for an updated twitch app to allow for higher bitrate for our streams. I really don't want to use Mixer as I prefer twitch. I hope Twitch have not forgotten about Xbox users.

  15. Xbox just came out with webcam support on xbox one and it would benefit the streamers who stream through the twitch app on xbox one if i was able to use a webcam for a face cam. So if it's possible I'd love to see the twitch app as part of the apps able to use the webcam

  17. Create a connection between the two apps via your Twitch token which allows you to (by default or on selection) load a stream's video on your Xbox and the same stream's chat (in a chat only window) on your phone.

  18. Currently you can only link one PS4 to your account. I have multiple's in my house and anytime I go to a different one I have to login to Twitch, disconnect the connection and then reactive the new PS4. It'd be nice to just allow more than one.

  19. 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…

  20. streaming on ps4 is frustrating without the above, if you offered psn users some overlay options that would be awesome. you can even use it to advertise movies and games etc.
