There should definitely be an option to log out of all devices. Even if you log out from one device, or change your password, you will still be logged in on all devices you haven't logged out from. I really tried to find an option to log out of all but couldn't find one.

I found this "bug" when I logged out and changed my password. A few days later my friend messaged me that he still has access to my twitch (I was on his computer and forgot to log out). It's not a huge problem for me because I have nothing sensitive on my account. But still, I have never seen a website that keeps your account logged on all devices after changing the password. Twitch should force log out after changing password, at the very least have an option to log out of all.

Right now people can create several accounts with just a new e-mail address (or delete an old account and create a new one). People that are harassing streamers usually does this, and it's unacceptable.

Twitch needs to do something about this, because it's gone too far. Bind accounts with a mobile number and let the owner change his/her name Once, because the name we chose 2 years ago might not be suitable today.

When a user register a new account on Twitch, they need to verify their identity with their phone number (for example sending a code via SMS that they need to enter to verify). And of course people can't just delete their account and create another one with the same number, it's locked to that specific username.

This will drastically reduce the harassment and bullying on Twitch.

There have been many times where a streamer has had some sort of emergency while live streaming. The viewers are left confused, panicked, and have no way to help. Situations such as seizures, embolisms/DVT, stroke (which is a real threat for people sitting down all day), and even non-medical emergencies such as someone breaking into their house.

As an epileptic myself, having a seizure on stream is one of my biggest fears. I am not always home with someone else. If I had a medical emergency while streamer, there would be nothing anyone could do or at least not very quickly.

Please implement a private(!) user profile field where streamers have the option to list an emergency contact and/or address in case of emergency. In the case of an emergency, when someone does call the police, I would hope that they can somehow get in contact with Twitch and cooperate to find the emergency contact and send help. Either that or create a command available to moderators of that channel to alert Twitch of an emergency. The contact/address would obviously be private to prevent raiding and harassment.

/emergency was apparently a thing, but isn't anymore (I'm sure because people misused it), but please bring back a similar command that is limited to moderators to make streamers safer.

I am a long-time Prime member, and have been subscribing to the same channel every month. My request is to allow automatic renewal of the free channel subscription using Prime, rather than manually renewing month-to-month.

It's quite frustrating to be trying to watch something, realise the month is over and have to re-subscribe.. or even, thinking it is about to expire, but find out it's expiring in 1-2 days and you can't pre-emptively renew it. You also lose your streaks unless you manage to renew on the exact day.

Allow automatic renewal, or at least let us subscribe for N months, or lowest bar is send a notification that the subscription is about to expire.

Turbo Streamer Features

Twitch Turbo doesn't have much use for those with Twitch Prime to subscribe too. Essentially all features (except ad-free) are available with Twitch Prime. People that have Prime have no real use to subscribe to Turbo as well. There are a few possible feature ideas that could make the $9/mo Turbo subscription price worth subscribing too. Here are just a few ideas. Not all have to be implemented, but a couple of them would be greatly appreciated.

• Transcode Options
  For streamers who subscribe to Twitch Turbo, one benefit that many people would be very appreciative of would be having even just one single transcode guarunteed. Many streamers would find Turbo worth subscribing too if they got a single transcode in addition to Source. For example, if they're streaming at 1080p60, a 720p60 transcode would be nice, or if they stream at 72p60, a 480p60 transcode would be super useful. Viewers with slower internet would be more likely to be able to stick around, watch, and subscribe to streamers or donate bits. With the cost of Turbo being $9/mo, in addition to having more people be able to watch streams and spend money on Subscriptions and Bits, it would be a no-brainer for Twitch to add a single-transcode option.




• Channel Points Boost
  This would be a nice to have feature, but wouldn't be required. Twitch nerfed the boost to channel points for subscribers, which makes Tier 2 and 3 subs almost not worth subscribing too, since it would cost double or more just to get the same boost to Channel Points. Giving Turbo subscribers a global boost to channel points rates would be nice. It could be a like 1.5x boost. Then if they also subscribe to an individual channel, changing the Subscriber boost to an additional 0.5x at Tier 1 could give Twitch the income to keep the platform running, in addition to being able to get that 2x boost again.




• Channel Subscription
  Twitch Prime gives a free channel sub once-per-month, but some countries people can't get Amazon Prime, so that leaves them unable to get the free sub per month. Giving someone a single Tier 1 subscription on Turbo as well, would get more people to subscribe to Turbo. And if they have Prime as well, Amazon still gets the money from the Amazon Prime subscription, in addition to the Turbo subscription for the cost of 2 subscriptions per month. A win-win for both Amazon and the Twitch member!

Personally, I (Kenson) do not see much of a reason to subscribe to Turbo, but if even one of these extra features was added, I'd subscribe to Turbo in addition to Twitch Prime. Personally, I'd make the most use out of an single Transcode option for my streams. I like to stream 720p60, but I have 3-4 regulars that have slower internet and they get lots of buffering and are rarely able to watch the stream for more than like 20-30 minutes at a time before their internet craps out.

When you sign up for a new account you are asked to input a one time code through email.

Please implement the One Time Code for ALL, EXISITING & NEW accounts when logging in.

Context: I do not have an active cell phone, I live in an area that does not receive SMS Text for the login code, therefore I can't use Authy either. I've been trying to log back into my account for about 3 weeks at this point with help from friends, but to no avail it didn't work.

Conclusion: Please implement this into the login system, it would not only be a easy fix, but it would save a lot of headaches and frustrations, for people who are unable to use the current Authy system that is in place. I would recommend getting rid of the Authy 2FA and in place of it use OTP (Open Time Password/Code) via Email that the account is connected to when trying to login.

You do have a similar system already with NEW ACCOUNTS when signing up, HOWEVER! Not for accounts that already EXIST within the system. Please update it to this, it would be a lifesaver for those who don't have Cell Phone Service.

Thanks, Technickle
