stop email verification upon login
I'M SORRY FOR WRITING IN CAPS ON PURPOSE! WHY DO I HAVE TO CONFIRM THAT IT'S ME WHEN I LOG IN EVERY ******* DAY?! I LOGIN EVERY TIME FROM THE SAME PLACE, FROM THE SAME DEVICE AND EVERY ******* TIME I HAVE TO GO TO THE ******* EMAIL, GET A ******* VERIFICATION CODE AND CONFIRM THAT IT'S ME. I'M ******* SICK OF IT!!!! FIX THIS **** ALREADY!!! HOW ABOUT THIS IDEA?!

You are lucky it even sends you a code, It never sends me a code and never allows me to get verified to even get monetized.

So there is no solution? I literally sign in to once a week to see ONE stream. It takes THREE emails. First it tells me my stream is on, which is totally fine seeing that the link takes me there. Then the code. If you paste incorrectly it will chuck you out and you may get another code, which takes ages. Then I get an email telling me I successfully logged in. No ****. How else would I possibly have known?? The fact that I can see my panel is not a dead give away! I know, I know, Sarcasm is lowest form of wit. Still. I do not have 2FA activated. I dread to think how many hoops THAT would throw at me at login. At this stages I literally have to show up ten minutes early to see my stream, just because of this asinine system. I would imagine some tech somewhere takes some perverted pleasure from this, for clever it is not. So how could you improve this? Give users the choice of exactly HOW secure they want/need their account to be. Give them responsibility. I, for one, would sign a waiver and absolve you of all responsibility for my account, as long as I can log in simply and quickly and watch my one stream.

Same as others. Why do I have to keep logging in and retrieving a verification number via my email? I log in from the SAME PC, and from the SAME location daily!!! Can Twitch figure this out and eliminate this process it's freaking headache!!

It's MADDENING that Twitch FORCES me to open a sodding email every time I want to log in. I hardly ever log in, EXACTLY BECAUSE OF THIS. And because of this, when I do log in, I want to make the visit as short as possible.
Can't stand using Twitch, and it's all because of this!
Sort out your service offering please Twitch, otherwise I might as well just delete my account altogether.

I disabled 2FA on purpose. It still makes me type in an email code every single time.
I DO NOT CARE IF SOMEONE STEALS MY TWITCH ACCOUNT. THIS IS NOT IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO WASTE MY TIME ON.

I don't care if some gets a hold of my twitch password. This account has no value to me other then keeping track of who I follow. Requiring me to enter a code sent to my email serves no purpose other then to annoy me.

****Recently fixed this problem by removing my chrome extension ad blocker, may be a solution if you use it as well.****
A viable ad blocker that wont cause this issue is 'uBlock Origin'

I agree. This whole email verification is ridiculous! I don't have 2FA on -- by choice, yet everytime I log into Twitch I have to then go log into my email just to verify. Often, I'm not on my PC/Laptop or near my email - so this forces me to log into email from the web. Everyone should be able to choose their form of verification, and if they want it at all. Twitch needs to stop doing this.

Stop that bull**** of having to enter a code send by email every f***ing time I log in! It's annoying AF and the reason why I only log in twitch 5 times a year max!!! If I wanted 2FA I would activate it in the settings but it's not on!!

It’s infuriating that this can’t be turned off. It always says I’m on a new device. That is incorrect and I’m tired of tracking down junk mail just to log into my account.

In your browser settings uncheck delete cookies when closing browser. This means you have to keep everything, all the **** from other sites. So its damned if you do and damned if you don't. Its the only way to avoid the dreaded code email!!

Yes, please. It seems this is a continued ask among the user base. I don't have 2FA enabled so why am I asked to verify a code via email for every login? That's 2FA. I don't use private/incognito windows on Twitch, I don't clear my cache or cookies very often, I always use the same device, so why am I prompted to verify my account like I didn't just log in yesterday? Please disable this.

If I wanted 2FA, I would have enabled it, **** this stupid email verification non-sense, it's so stupid that when you want to leave a comment on a *live* stream and you don't realise you aren't signed in yet, you have to spend upwards of a minute signing in, or simply not be able to sign in if you have no immediate access to your email (e.g. if your email require 2FA and your phone is dead).
