  1. Can we get a date/timestamp in the whisper chat function?

    Not sure how we don't have this yet!

    Especially for an ongoing chat you might not know what day a message is from

  2. Bring back multiple tag search, right now filtering is limited to one tag on mobile, and that kills small streamer discoverability

  3. Please add support for Siri voice commands, such as Rewind and Fast Forward, when watching videos on demand. For example, “Hey Siri, Rewind 30 seconds”, or “Hey Siri, Fast Forward two minutes.”

    Currently that can only be done with on-screen buttons but the app doesn’t support those Siri commands. Siri responds with “Sorry I couldn’t go back” or “Sorry I couldn’t skip this”. A good example of how this SHOULD work is the native iOS Podcasts app.

  4. Play In Background claims it will switch to audio only mode when the screen is locked. I have it enabled.

    When I have the app open and I lock the screen or swipe down from tho top of the screen to open the iOS notification center, the audio does continue playing.

    When I leave the app while a stream is playing, the stream continues playing in a picture-in-picture mode. If I then lock the screen or open the iOS notification center, the playback pauses rather than switching to audio only mode and continuing.

    This is especially annoying when pressing play…

  5. I’ve noticed when people stream off android they have a button to view chat. There is no such thing for people streaming on IOS. Suggesting we get the same feature on iOS, so we don’t need an additional device just to view our chat

  6. When browsing on mobile, i have to reset my language tag EVERY new category i look through. It would be great if they would stay, just like on Desktop site. I only speak/read English and having to trudge through searching for English can get very tiredsome and eventually i give up and don't even watch anything until i get back to my PC.

    Also, why 2 English tags, with no distiction between them. I understand one is Brittish/UK English and the other American English, but they both only say "English". There's really not much difference between the 2 either and…

  7. When i chromecast a twitch vod (assuming it happens on live streams too) to my tv and pause the vod, the cast will close after only a few mins. My other apps like Hulu, YouTube, and Netflix don't do this and can be paused for much longer. From what i understand this timeout is set by the app developer.

  9. I've came across a problem I cant easily access the full twitch streaming capability on the mobile app.
    I also cannot access account on Samsung Galaxy Tab which would allow me slightly more access as bigger screen
    Also I cannot access account on laptop with windows 10. This is completely ruining my streaming experience

  10. I do a lot of streaming directly through my phone on the twitch app. It would be nice to have the option to type in chat while streaming on my phone.

  11. The YouTube app has background code that synchronizes the Bluetooth audio and video, it would be great if the twitch app did this, seen as how manufacturers are moving away from the 3.5mm jack.

    Everyone is starting to use Bluetooth earbuds, and there is a good 0.5 sec delay.

  12. Issue:

    Double tap allows three features:

    1) Enable chat overlay
    2) Disables chat overlay
    3) Enables chat to appear on the right, the old chat interface

    Proposal:

    Don’t attach 3 u.i reactions to one finger gesture . Additionally, allow chat options to be toggled in settings for a permanent preference chosen by the user.

  15. Devices Tested:
    Google Pixel 6
    Google Pixel XL
    OnePlus 6T

    Twitch App Version 13.0.0


    Ever since the latest Twitch App update on Android, the battery drains when Chromecasting to a TV, as if the stream is playing full-screen on the phone. In a test, the battery on my Pixel 6 drained from 100% to 10% in one hour, with the Twitch App accounting for 99% of the usage, despite video playback being on a TV and the phone being in sleep mode.

  16. Since I play on my couch (and only have one monitor) I'd like to have the functionality of the desktop stream manager on my mobile device. Essentially, I'd like to be able to raid channels, see the ad timer, and so on from my mobile device. Also, I'd like to be able to run my stream manager from mobile horizontally. Don't know why it's locked vertically.

  18. Just the most basic functionality of pausing an ongoing stream. I've had experiences when my connection broke, I could pause and play to have it reconnect. But somehow, pausing was removed after the redesign for apparently no reason. It would allow users to pause their streams whenever they wanted to.

    I never thought I'd be asking for such a basic feature to be implemented but here I am. Twitch please.

  19. I’m on my phone and chromecasting to my tv. But for some reason the volume I have on my phone will lock to what I had when I started casting. So going to other apps while casting is very annoying because the volume is locked to what you want the tv to be on. YouTube has a smother casting experience and I would like twitch’s to be better
