Allow overlay extensions to overlay the video on mobile
Currently, overlay extensions only overlay the video on PC.
Please allow overlay extensions to overlay the video on mobile too.
Hey everyone, thank you for your continued feedback!
Developers are able to offer a mobile view of their Twitch Extension by providing an additional version that acts similar to panels on a channel page. The icon to open the mobile version is located on the chat tab in the Twitch mobile application. An overlay view for a Twitch Extension is specifically intended for viewing in a desktop web browser and this functionality is currently not being investigated for mobile use.
For services that provide overlay graphics via Twitch Extensions, we recommend that these views be made available as browser sources for broadcasting software if viewability across all viewing destinations (e.g. desktop, mobile, console) is a high priority for your use case.
Thank you again for this feedback, and please let us know of any additional suggestions you may have in the future.

As a PC owner. I still think console streamers need help with overlays that us PC owners have. Everyone owns a phone not everyone owns a PC/Laptop.#helpconsolestreamers

This should be a thing to ensure full inclusivity for all streamers regardless of price point. <3 #helpconsolestreamers

Please add this! most of us streamers don’t have the budget for a fancy pc so this can be an opportunity for a lot of us.

Please have this work on mobile. Most people watch on mobile and this would be a big help to the community especially the console streamers out there like myself.

majority of viewers watch via mobile, very unfortunate overlays via the extension cannot been seen on mobile. :(

Many people do not have a spare PC, so making available to mobile devices would be a bonus for Twitch.
