Implement a mute button on the Twitch app
There needs to be an option to mute audio on the Twitch app. Some people enjoy listening to other music or audio while watching Twitch streams, and its not possible to mute single apps on Mobile devices. This should be easy to implement and would satisfy a large portion of the Twitch userbase.

Hey all,
Thanks so much for bringing this idea to our attention. The implementation of this feature is being investigated but is not guaranteed. We will update you whether it will be possible (or not) here. Please continue to provide your feedback!

Definitely necessary. Sometimes I watch a stream on the PC and talk in chat on my phone but can't go through other apps because the volume needs to be down completely (especially with minor delay in stream between pc and phone), it makes no sense that you can't mute the stream yet you're able to make it audio only. Either that or make a chat only app to allow users to talk in the chat room of the video they are viewing on another device

Really, just volume control in general, especially with how obnoxious ads are.

Indeed we can currently set the app to Audio only or Chat only, but no option to just say muted stream. This shouldn't be difficult to implement.

Agree with everyone below. Lack of this simple feature is ********.

Being able to mute a stream would be great. I use my phone to monitor my stream quality while I'm playing and generally don't need to hear the audio. With iOS, my only option is to mute all sounds via the system's volume level.

Could be possible to link twitch with another voice track like DISCORD? Or at least a button to MUTE video on top of live videos to be able to listen through other channels (not possible in IOS)

Poner un botón de MUTE encima de la pantalla de visualización porque desde el IPHONE me fue imposible silenciar el vídeo y quería silenciarlo para escuchar DISCORD con el vídeo.

Any update on getting this added? If picarto can do it it seems like twitch should be able to.

Either this or a volume control would be nice.

We have an audio only and chat only option, but no video only option. Why?

I'd prefer a volume setting so I could set the volume in relation to other apps and alerts, with the ability to mute if I want to.

4 years, and still waiting for either an explanation of why this can't be done, or when they will implement it, fo a seemingly very simple feature.

I'm with you on this Dan! It's simply stupid NOT to have a volume control on ANY app of this nature. I'm on Android and it gets really annoying not being able to adjust volume.

Omg...since the last update they took away the mute feature. Wtf. I muted it everyday and put on music while watching. Not anymore...kind of choked.
