    Allow users on Twitch.tv to hover over the borders of portions of the page (chat, channel side bar on the left) and drag them in and out to adjust their size. I want to use Theater Mode in a browser so I can still see and participate in the chat, but I want to decrease font size and shrink the chat a bit so I can increase the size of the actual stream.

    Adding this level of display control across all Twitch platforms will greatly increase user experience and autonomy, and will probably negate the future need for developing a different viewing format (i.e. some other specific view setting besides Theater and Full Screen).

    Betterttv does have options to change, front and font size. It's a chrome extension. Once you download it it's just the little gear and then scroll to the bottom.

    the non-adjustable font is useless on 3000x2000 monitors in TWITCH DESKTOP APP. Apparently gender appropriate pronoun filters are more important than seeing chat itself. Please FIX the app so we can set the Size of the CHAT FONT

    This I want. It's a pain to see the chat when you're viewing from a small 1080p screen half a room away

    Even better- ALL font sizes. Most of Twitch is very unfriendly to the visually impaired, making it painfully difficult to use.

    I concur - it would be nicer to allow for those who need larger sizes to read. Not helpful for the visually impaired who would like to chat

    Everything all those guys said, it's very small on a 4k screen unless you tell windows to blow up ALL of y our apps, because apparently they can't handle per app zoom setting >.>

    Any more then a few feet away and chat is too small to read. I like the app but unfortunately it’s unusable for me until this option gets implemented.

    yes please we need the option to change font as it is very hard to read in chat especially the chat box
  • Elder_Cat commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Yes please, it is too small for me to read comfortably. I am able to zoom in on any web browser, please let me make the text larger in the App.
