  1. My idea is that, for streaming on mobile you could perhaps add an overlay support for android and IOS. A lot of streamers, including me, stream from their phones. + not to disturb others around them, they use mostly Bluetooth headphones, but then the game audio cuts off for the viewers.

    We all know you are busy, but can you consider, making overlay support and in-game audio happen?

  3. I recently upgraded my phone to the Pixel 5 with a hole punch camera in the front.

    Netflix and Youtube support this via a pinch out zoom and fills the width of the screen, it appears that the Twitch app is almost there as it seems to support a pinch out zoom but it won't go all the way over and stops with a black bar over the camera and status bar area.

    I would like the pinch out to zoom to fill the whole screen! Thank you

  4. It seems sometimes, when playing ultrawide videos ("21/9" aspect ratio) on my android tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab 6), the video starts playing vertically stretched out to 16/9 aspect ratio. Rotating the image, or switching from and to fullscreen will resize the video to the correct 21/9 ratio.

    This only seems to happen if there was no ad played when starting the video or stream. As there is a workaround when this happens, and it may not be happening to other tablet viewers, I'd imagine this is more of an annoyance, but it could be detrimental to streamers who use the…

  8. I wish that multiple "Is Live!" notifications by a single user would be grouped together into one notification. Right now, each is separate, making my notifications really noisy for active users.

  9. "Flex Mode" is a feature of Samsung's foldable devices that allows an app to detect when the device is folded and move UI elements to best accommodate a partially folded device. A great example is the YouTube app playing a video on the top half of a folded screen, while the user is free to leave comments or scroll through recommended videos on the bottom. This feature would be incredibly nice in the Twitch app, where leaving comments is such a vital part of a livestream. Simply allow the video to fill the top half of the folded screen and…

  10. When using wide aspect phones in landscape, if you open the chat it overlays the video while there's still space to the left. A better solution is to move the video left while leaving the chat on the right, using the whole screen space. (Similar to what Google meet does when opening the chat)

  12. When watching vods or clips on the horizontal mobile player, tapping to bring up controls makes the follow, notification, and sub buttons pop up. WHY??

    When you're watching live it's not a huge deal because you don't need to use the seek bar. But watching a vod or clip, it's insanely annoying having those buttons take up a third of the screen every time you want to go back a few seconds. If I'm watching a vod from a channel I've been subbed to for a year, why I would want the option to unsub and unfollow them popping up…

  14. Especially for tablets, it would be nice if the Stream-Manager could be also used in landscape mode, with chat and activity feed next to each other instead of on top of each other. The user should be able to decide on his own which should be on the right and on the left.

  16. Since the last update, browsing the games in the Android app forces the screen into vertical mode. It is annoying, because I almost always use my tablet in horizontal mode.

  20. Instant Apps for Android allow casual users like me to use the app's primary functionality without having to explicitly download it. It can also function as an "upsell" to encourage me to download the full app for a richer experience.
