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.

Having the overlays appear on Mobile and Console would be amazing. I watch most streams from my phone so thought I did the setup incorrectly until I discovered it's not supported when viewing from mobile/console. If the overlays could be visible during vods that would be amazing too!

I don't know why but for some reason the only people that can see my overlays are people using google chrome on PC. Otherwise my vods and mobile app users can't see any of my overlays. I'm not sure if this is only happening to me but adding a coding process or application where mobile app users can see the overlays and where they then pop up on the vods afterwards would be very beneficial for console or other streamers in general with this same problem. Can please send help?

Please allow to view on mobile and console as I am a twitch streamer and most of the people who watch me only have mobiles and consoles so they can't see my overlay

overlay extensions should definitely be allowed in every platform. It would be very beneficial to the creator and its viewers.

Please insert the handy support as soon as possible. It's ****** to lose viewers because they don't know that for example the stream is paused and you're not there right now.

Estoy cansado de que siempre favorezcan a la comunidad de PC y nos obliguen a los de consola a cambiarnos a PC para disfrutar todas las ventajas de juegos con crossplay obligado y de streaming.
