Bugs with watch streaks and app features
Earlier this month, the watch streaks feature has had bugs that other users have experienced (per a Reddit post I made about the issue). Streaks don’t display or get registered when watching in the app, requiring users to watch streams, clips and VODs on the desktop site to update them. However in the past week (approximately), streaks updated on the website show the exact same number of watched streams, no longer advancing the count when the streak maintenance notification appears on the accordant channel page. Streak notifications informing users of missed streams also don’t appear in-app (except in sparse cases), resulting in users risking losing streaks that reset without notice, especially because of the in-app streak registry glitch.
Other issues with the app have cropped up that haven’t been resolved. Since February, the iOS/iPadOS app has had glitches with player controls and chat refreshes. When resetting WiFi or cell service while watching a stream, chat gets stuck in a buffer that prevents typing in messages, even while the chat stream updates. Player controls and stream descriptions also fail to generate when tapped at times, especially when tiled with another app or after tapping the channel points, bits and emotes tabs. Those three tabs also get stuck when trying to close them, requiring multiple tries to get those menus closed.

Look the app isnt notifing me about both laynalazar and Cottontailva streams being missed to reclaim within 24 hrs even though even though I watched their recent streams so their a glitch on the samsung andriod google play twitch app that I'm using!! The app eliminated my watch streaks to both Cottontailva and Laynalazar streams despite me showing up consistently to their streams and in the midst of saving them especially Laynalazar one the andriod mobile app is preventing me from saving! Please help me in restoring my watch streaks!!
