Option to log out of all devices
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.

someone has been taking my free prime subs and i have no way of protecting myself other than just cancelling my payments. I'll consider getting prime again when this issue is fixed

This is over four years old? This is a super BASIC security measure especially since there is access to PURCHASING SERVICES THROUGH YOUR SITE. We have two-step authorization, why do we not have THIS.

simply a button under setting that would force every connection to your account be terminated, so you would have to log in again.

I was just logged in from new dehli, I've changed my password and set up 2fa but I feel like that didn't log the other person out

Looks like I was hacked twice within 5 minutes from two different places in new york. Isnt this a security breach from twitch? Shouldnt users be notified of such breaches? Is this a class action lawsuit?

Please make this a feature. The fact that I enabled 2FA months ago and JUST TODAY I got a notification that I "successfully logged in" another country really tells me how easy it is to log in even with 2FA enabled

I just got hacked as well... I changed my password and enabled the 2fa but nothing confirms that they are not using my account as long as they are logged.

Came here to contribute and say I've had the same experience as Tazexzombies. Malaysia and Vietnam have been logging into my account DESPITE the fact I have 2fa enabled. I have no way of signing them out.

How is this three years old and not implemented? I got an email saying my account was accessed from Malaysia and to switch the password. Once I got home my account was still logged in. How are you going to promote multifactor authentication and yet not log out accounts when passwords are changed?
-
Yes it's mine!

^ This, even when enabling two-factor authentication it will not log you out on other devices!

Totally agree. Apparently I forgot to logout of my Twitch account in an Esport bar like 2 weeks ago and I just noticed it randomly says that I'm currently watching streams I don't even know about... and I found no way to logout from my pc.
