  1. About 50 to 60% of the people that watch other streamers on Twitch do so VIA Mobile. I notice on Mobile though when going to Subscribe you can only do that in only Tier 1. You should give mobile the options for viewers to choose either a Tier 2 or Tier 3 subscription. I had alot of my viewers that want to do that but they was unable to because they watch via mobile.

  3. Optimize clipping. Literally anything, even removing clipping entirely, would improve this.

    This is the current workflow for clipping on Android 10 app version 13.1.1:

    1. load the currently live streamer's homepage in twitch app by clicking on their name, not image icon.

    2. Close the live video by swiping down if it pops up. Make sure you've clicked on the livestreamer's name, not image icon.

    3. close the live video again, if necessary.

    4. go to video tab and scroll down to "most recent", then choose the first video, even if it doesn't seem to have the right post time or runtime.

    5. if it…

  4. When viewing a channel on the mobile app, there is no clear way to find any history of your interaction with the channel. This leads me to accidentally unsubscribing from a channel by clicking that channel subscribe button, hoping it will take me to another menu.

    So this is a two part:
    If someone clicks that in error, and nearly immediately subscribes, favorites, etc. Back again, then their "renewed" sub, favorite, etc date should be based on the original.

    Number 2: what I described above happens when I'm just wanting to see a few basic things : how long ago…

  5. On March 31 2022, Twitch announced a new "Mod Feature: /announce" where people could use /announce and then a message would be higlighted in chat.

    This has been proven to be useful for many chats and different uses. The only problem with it in it's current implementation, is that it doesn't work on the official Twitch Mobile Andriod App.

    As a moderator on mobile, you can do "/announce and then your message". This will only appears on people who are using the PC/Web Browser versions of Twitch, and will not appear for anyone using the mobile application.

    Thus, if people…

  6. I use a physical keyboard with my Android device. Most apps (so far, ALL of my apps except for Twitch) support physical keyboards automatically. If Twitch supported physical keyboards for chat, I'd be able to engage with streams no matter where I am. As it is, if I want to chat with streamers, I have to move to my PC so I can use a keyboard.

  7. BLOCK PHONE SCREEN FROM VIEWERS DURING MOBILE GAME STREAMS

    I was wondering if we could make the mobile streaming while playing a mobile game a bit safer.

    I'd like the ability to blind my viewers when playing a mobile game, bc sometimes certain games have certain in game notifications that cant be turned off, and pop up upon game start that show my email or other types of information I may not want shown asking me certain things, including updates for games.

    I'd like the ability to push an eyeball indicator which will blind the screen and allow me to…

  8. Can you guys please add the headphone button the same way youtube has it in the PIP window to background the stream if we choose to want to just background the app and have audio only. I've requested this by emails but never get any response.

  9. I would like for the twitch app to have the same picture in picture transition as youtube has, where it doesn't leave the PIP window to just appear and it just shrinks and it's a smaller screen. You do not see the app close rather the video shrink instead. Use YouTube and then swipe up into PIP for reference

  11. Basically I stream clash royale with twitch app on a s21 ultra and would love to have my viewers watch with a phone and see it full screen without the black bars on the side. The 2 viewing options right now on the app via mobile viewing are small with 80% of the screen chat and black bars 70% of the viewing area or 70% black bars on viewing area and would love to see 100% gameplay in viewing area as an option as well please <3

  12. Either in the Android app itself or on the popout chat link in a mobile browser, it would be nice if the chat font could be adjusted to larger sizes. I have a tablet which I like to read Twitch chat on, but if I set the tablet a few feet away from me by my TV, I cannot set the font big enough to read it. And unlike on desktop, when I use the popout chat on a tablet's browser, zooming in does not dynamically change the layout of the popout chat.

    Please make the chat either on the…

  15. Currently the app pushes a notification for Thursday Night Football even though I have only allowed notifications for streamers that I follow that have gone live. TNF should fall under the 'events' category of notifications.

  16. Currently on the mobile Twitch app, there is no option to change the language app so add it. For the language tag, we can remove it or change it.

  17. I have unlimited and quite fast mobile data plan, so I would like to have a smooth live stream playback experience on mobile data, I don't care how much data it would use, it could be experimental option. I have serious problems on mobile, the audio keeps cutting and sometimes even the stream, even though other platforms with live and/or pre-recorded content do not have such problems.

  18. Twitch is not full screen on the Samsung Galaxy S20 and I assume all other models that have the centred pinhole front-facing camera design. When the phone was originally released, the app actually did go full-screen over the pinhole, but just a few weeks later the Twitch app updated to no longer do that. Watching on mobile now means having a black bar over one side of the screen. The whole point of phones like these is the feeling of a true full-screen experience and the current Twitch app design ruins it.

  19. On the Twitch Android app, you have two seek buttons on VODS to go 30 seconds forwards, or 10 seconds backwards. These buttons plainly suck. The touch area for them is incredibly small especially for someone with big fingers. I often miss an input when seeking so I double tap which more often than not brings up chat. Which I obviouly don't want and it is incredibly frustrating.

    I don't understand why they are made like this, and I also don't understand why there are three seperate inputs to bring up chat - a double tap, an on-screen button and…
