  1. Currently, there is a BUG with Watch Parties in relation to the "streamer window" that moves above chat while the stream from Amazon is happening on the main part.

    Since about April 6th or so, I start my stream ("starting soon") in another category (as one can't as Watch Party - ahem ahem...) and the scene shows perfect. Any scene switch shows fine in any gaming category too.

    I then start the watch party and the show/movie themselves stream fine. However, MY scene, which moves above chat just the same as when someone's stream moves there during ads, is just…

    Hi,

    To clarify, you posted this under TV Apps; are you only noticing this behavior on the TV App, or is this behavior true for when viewing on web? Please let me know. Thanks.

  2. so I have this problem for over 1 year and I'm sure it's not from my end. The thing is when a streamer that I watch (any of them) decides to end their stream and raid someone else, I can't follow the raid train neither on the TV app (its an LG SmartTV) nor on the FireStick TV app. It just stops and I am left on the streamer's recent broascasts page. I would love to use twitch on tv more but this experience is kind of disruptive as I like to leave it on while I do chores around…

  3. A recent change for your TV apps (I've tested it on LG/WebOS and Apple TV) when a stream ends it goes to a splash screen showing the stream has ended.

    In a recent previous version it would return to the home page showing live streams you follow and recommended streams. Now I have to click out every time a stream ends to see that list.

    Maybe a "best of both worlds" in which the splash screen saying "This stream has ended" returns to the main list after 30 seconds or so?

  4. Hello! I would like to express my thanks and appreciation for your Twitch: TV app. I really enjoy using it to watch live-streaming on my big screen TV. However, I would like to share my opinion on how to improve the quality of streaming on your TV apps. I think there is more you could do to improve streaming performance and provide a more stable connection. Maybe you can do more research and testing to find new ways to optimize and improve your streaming experience. I believe you can continue to improve the quality of your app and I look…

  5. Why did this get removed in the latest update? It helped me figure out if I wanted to watch twitch or not.

  6. Right now, if you want to see the chat for a stream, it has to be to the side of the stream. It looks ugly and creates black bars.

    Let us have the chat in a small box in a corner. Let us control the opacity of the background, the size and position of the box, as well as letting us switch back to the current one.

    SoundTV on android tv does this amazingly well and rather than hiding the chat like I do on appleTV I get to show it and enjoy it without it ruining the stream.

  7. Left and right should toggle between streams. Like every regular tv app.

  8. Currently it's not possible to participate to the chat from the FireTV App.
    Sending text messages from the TV is definetly not reasonable. But selecting emotes to support some kind of hype in the chat could be easy doable with the FireTV remote.

    I think that increases the feeling to be a part of the stream as viewer and therefore the viewers satisfaction. Also it could be one more reason to subscribe to that streamer.

  10. Why is there no webOS section for feedback on this User Voice site?
    Please add a section for the multiple issues that regards the (LG) webOS app.

  11. Better integration of Twitch and easier/more reliable use of Twitch via Alexa/Echo devices and Fire TV... I should be able to easily change channels and watch twitch streams via Echo Show 8/10/5 as well as stream Twitch audio to an Echo Studio Stereo Pair... the Echo skill is unreliable at best, and makes it difficult to change between streamers... and the Fire TV skill does not support raids and just ends the channel...

  12. Hello, for the first time in 3 years and 2 months the twitch helpdesk has me to come here to talk about my problem. My problem is that twitch on my firestick only restarts and it's impossible to use it. It would be nice to tell me the procedure to follow to solve the problem because after more than 3 years and 2 months the twtich help service is incapable.

  13. I been thinking about the tv experience and how not many user really use it to much but I think some small improvements and innovations can change people perspective, maybe we would use it like direct tv, but instead of movies you will have content from streamers, also you should implement that when put your twitch account on the tv your twitch phone app would synchronize and be the controller of the site, you should also include something to change the tv channels, maybe two options one to change between channels you follow and the other option to do a…

  14. On PC, when you finish one VoD, it basically loads up another vod for you to watch. I would like to see that functionality on the twitch TV app, as I enjoy putting on streamers vods while I play a game, or when I lay down for bed, and most of the streamers I watch don't stream for more than 4 or 5 hours, the current TV app will basically shut off once the video ends.

  15. It has the same issues as in 2016.
    Please fix this.
    1080p stutters.
    Some streams just visually freezes for a second now and then.
    Some people dont have the NEWEST tv so you cant use the smarttv to get the app. Please Twitch, fix this!

  16. Watching twitch on the Fire TV (Stick) app is actually possible since the updates last year, but some features are still missing.

    I logged into my account and was missing the tab for VODs of my followed channels.
    So there is no easy way to find out what streams of your followed channels you may have missed. Even if you know you missed one, you have to go to their page first which especially is a nuisance if you follow alot of channels which you have to scroll through. Using the remote control to search for a channel is even…

  17. Not really a TV app but closest category I could find, I think an Alexa Video Skill would be great for twitch as I would love to be able to watch streams on my Echo Show, seems strange that this isn't already a thing considering that Twitch is owned by Amazon lol, obv would then be able to utilise features such as connected Echo devices for surround sound as well as the 3D Sound and Subwoofer products they also sell for this ecosystem

  18. Transparent view of chat on the web browser/AppleTv etc. similarly to the mobile version. Lastly, if something could tell if you are watching on appletv, roku, firetv and it automatically asks if you want to just view chat from your smartphone.

  19. Currently the only way to get the currently logged in user it to parse an array from
    https://api.twitch.tv/helix/users

    This is a request to add back an endpoint that only returns the single object of the current user. At paths such as:
    https://api.twitch.tv/helix/user
    https://api.twitch.tv/helix/users/@me

  20. Ok, my Smart TV is a colombian local branded TV but it has webOS 5.4. Basically it is a LG SmartTV because of the model but the branding is 100% from Colombia. My TV is a Challenger with model UHD50LWSMARTBT.

    In the LG Content Store, I found the Twitch app: https://co.lgappstv.com/main/tvapp/detail?appId=1004947&catCode1=&moreYn=Y&cateYn=N&orderType=4&headerName=Todas&appRankCode=1&sellrUsrNo=&curPage=2

    Unfortunately, this app is not available for Colombia because in my TV I am unable to find it. It's amazing I can find in the store the TikTok app but not the Twitch app... So, my suggestion is to enable the Twitch app TV for Colombia or at least…
