  2. I love the fact my LG smartv got your app, but i can't login my account on it, so when i watch my favored streamers by him i dont get stuff like channel points or can interact in chat in any form... It's sad because watching twitch on TV has became more fun than on PC to me, so... this is my feedback.

  3. Title. Given the stability and usability of the app as a whole, having to /attempt/ to cycle through several screens worth of channels is already a gamble. Please allow the Fire TV app to have an option to filter by language, or embed the setting within the user account settings.

  4. I follow a lot of channels, but a majority of the time, I'm looking for one game in particular to watch. It'd be nice to be able to filter my Live page (https://www.twitch.tv/directory/following/live) by game.

  5. on Fire TV, the boundaries of the screen don't adjust correctly like other apps do. Because of this there is a portion of the video that is off screen, some TV's have options to adjust the edge scanning, but not all do and it can be annoying to change it every time just to watch twitch.

  6. Dear twitch!

    Would you be so kind to please write a statement or something, that you support the app on certain tvs, or you dont. I wrote to your support where they said the problem is with lg tv, as they stopped the supporting of the twitch app, while lgs support said you guys stopped the support on it, and not them. Either way its frustrating, and funny, since even after a factory reset i have the app preinstalled. Yet i cant use it because it loads in everything perfectly, but then it decides after everything is loaded, that my…

  7. I own a device called a Rii mini keyboard, and I want to use that to chat on Twitch through my smart TV, in addition to my phone. My phone's keyboard isn't intuitive enough for me to have maximum control over keystrokes, and I would like the 2nd option I mentioned above to become available.

  8. Hi,
    I would like to report a problem with the Twitch app on my Samsung Smart TV DU8070 (running Tizen OS).

    Live streams freeze after about 20 minutes of watching.
    I've been using the app for 2 months and have been experiencing the same issue consistently. The problem temporarily resolves when I exit the live stream and re-enter it, but then the stream freezes again after about 20 minutes (however, when the stream freezes, the chat continues to work).

    What I've tried to solve the problem (but didn't help):
    - clearing the cache
    - uninstalling and reinstalling the app

    I'm…

  10. Hi, i'd really love if you could release the Twitch app for the Samsung Series 55 Smart TV.

    Ever since the old unofficial app got removed a few years back i've checked to see if the app was available for my Samsung Series 55 Smart TV every few months, but to this day it doesn't appear when i search for Twitch on the app store.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    Best regards, ghost97915

  11. The current behavior when pressing back during playback is bad. It just closes the content immediately, regardless of whether the player overlay is visible or not.

    For usability to prevent accidentally closing the content, during playback the stream/VoD should only be closed when pressing back twice in a row, so:
    - If playback overlay is visible, pressing back once should hide the overlay, pressing back again should close content. This is what the native AppleTV+ app does.
    - If playback overlay is hidden, pressing back once should show the overlay, pressing back again should close content

    The current behavior is…

  12. For the last week or so I keep getting the “oh bummer” message while watching a stream. Only way to get it working again is to close the app and open it.

  13. Delay was introduced in the latest app update. Prior to this, the latency was <5s, and on par with mobile and web playback. The new Android TV app plays back with a latency well above 15 seconds, which makes it very difficult to interact with streams in a real time manner.

  14. I am tired of having to reselect the quality from 1080p to 480p every single time that I put on a new stream. Please remember my choice of 480p as the default for every channel

  16. When looking at chat on my TV the dark names can be very difficult to read on the dark background. Having the dark user names outlined with a light color would make them readable from a distance.

  17. Pretty severe bug, when I watch a live stream and a streamer runs an ad, after the ad is done the stream lags horribly. I counted 1 frame per 4 seconds until the stream freezes and I have to restart the stream.
    Please fix this fast!

  18. I have LG Oled TV. Everytime I use Twitch app, I have to hide chat before getting full screen of the stream. I suppose most of the users who watch streams from TV don't want to interact with chat since writing is not very convenient. I suggest you remove chat from default view from televisions or give users a chance to choose the default view.

  19. 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…

  20. 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
