  1. We propose adding a Chat Engagement Metric as a requirement for payout in Twitch Bounty Sponsorships, which currently rely solely on the Average Concurrent Viewers (ACCV) metric.

    Rationale:

    With the rise of Twitch Drops, many creators see an influx of viewers who are only present for rewards, inflating ACCV numbers without genuine engagement. These artificially boosted numbers can lead to creators qualifying for Bounty program payouts without providing real value to sponsors.

    Suggestion:

    For the fairness and effectiveness of the Twitch Bounty Program, we recommend incorporating a Chat Engagement Metric into the payout criteria. Channels with high ACCV should also…

  2. This is an easy way to improve many creator's experience. Partners and affiliates have access to this feature, however non-affiliates can only schedule recurring streams. For streamers that don't stream on a fixed schedule, this makes no sense and is frustrating to use. It is non-affiliated and non-partnered streamers that need this feature especially, should they decide they wanted to efficiently use the schedule feature. The workaround is quite the headache: Scheduling the planned stream and then hopefully not forgetting about removing it.
    Please give everyone access to the "Specific Day" option when scheduling a stream.

  3. In the Dashboard, allow us to enable and disable Sub Gifting or Multi-Sub Gift Bombs in our channel.

    This has many uses, and I'd love to hear what others would use this for as well (more feedback the better).

    • Moves support focus towards Bits/Cheering instead of Gifted Subs (especially with Hype Chat functions moving to Bits/Cheering)
    • Prevents people missing out on being able to sub themselves because they got a gift in a gift sub bomb
    • Disincentives people from 'never subscribing' because they "always get gifted anyways"
    • Could be used by those pushing for Partner Plus,…

  4. Given the reaction of the Twitch Community to multiple ideas proposed by Twitch Ambassadors, there should be a better vetting process on who becomes an ambassador and on ideas suggested by them. For example, EvilToaster had a reputation for unwanted solicitation of other streamers during their streams, but when EvilToaster suggested the new, more intrusive collaborating tool "Drop In" it appears no vetting on support in the community was done. Nor does it seem like any history was looked at of the person making the suggestion.

  5. It would be wonderful if people could access custom emotes per channel by cheering/subscribing/gifting while the hype train is happening. Exactly how bit emotes work (once unlocked you have them forever) allowing slots for creators to put custom hype train emotes that can only be earned in their channel at certain hype train levels.

    For example:
    Hype Train Level 3 - Creator Emote Unlocked
    Hype Train Level 5 - Creator Emote Unlocked
    Hype Train Level 10 - Creator Emote Unlocked

    This feature would benefit both the streamer and Twitch as I believe more people would be inclined to join a…

  6. In Stream Together allow for Twitch Sings type Karaoke features but use the new DJ Program collab with music industry for the licensed backing tracks use terms & monetization structure. With this you would create a category called Karaoke similar to DJ category.

  7. Positive Friendly Yappers make twitch entertaining. Being able to easily find positive yappers helps when streamers stop streaming. Many yappers now use the tag yapper to deter viewers who would be offended by yapping. Find your favorite yapper with the Yapper's Guild!

  9. I stream so often that I tend to forget to highlight a VOD. I have lost so many of my favorite moments of myself because of the 60 day time they stay on demand. I am so sad and would love to have it be like YT where it saves them all forever

  11. It be great if I can get a notification from my mobile or even an email for when I get a whisper.
    Often someone will whisper me and I don't notice for a whole day, by then they are away from Twitch and we start playing whisper tag.

  12. While I do understand the need for the changes allowing for a DJ category and also the perks of there being a DJ category - variety streamers who DJ and do other types of streams seemingly get left in more confusion. Being forced to separate your channel into multiple channels when you've built an audience on being a variety streamer doesn't seem fair - however if the revenue percentage fees for the DJs is channel wide and not based on categories or even whether you're a DJ who even plays copywritten music - it effectively means even non DJ streams…

  13. Currently, searching for an artist like Barry White in the DJ Catalog requires excessive scrolling and clicking the "Load More" button.

    To enhance the user experience, consider implementing one of the following solutions:

    Expand All Songs: Allow users to expand all songs for a specific artist, enabling efficient keyword searching (e.g., CTRL+F).

    Secondary Search: Enable users to perform a secondary search within a selected artist's song list, or within the initial search (search within initial search results).

    Enhanced Search Criteria: Improve search capabilities to support quoted strings and artist names for more precise results.

    If these features already exist, please…

  14. Incredibly useful for irl collabs and shared channels/collabs like maya/alveussanctuary but is unknown to most and hard to use currently.

    make the notification possible to be sent on mobile(currently is only available if you start the stream together session on desktop). Make title tags send an invite, only to channels that follow you(it is usually hard to find/notice currently anyway)

  15. When you share a streamer's clip via TikTok it's easy to get rid of the handle in the description, all you gotta do is send the video to drafts instead of posting straight from twitch. People can steal your clips without crediting you, a twitch handle you be added TO THE CLIP ITSELF so that it displays when the clip is shared and people cant get rid of it

  16. It came to my attention that with some Drops, it is unclear what to expect from the drop. A example is Marvel Rivals. When watching a livestream, you get a pop-up that indicates that drops are enabled. When you go to the Drop details, it says:

    • Go to a participating live channel
    • Watch a stream for one hour and claim your reward

    However, once you have watched a stream for one hour, and you want to claim your reward, you are being redirected to the official website. You have to connect your Twitch account before continueing (which makes sense). But…

  17. Allow the ability to add goals if Chat hits a level, for example "Level 5 Hype Train - We Play X" "Level 4 Hype Train - Open Lobbies" "Level 3 Hype Train - Pet Cam" Something something.

    Even better if we can have multiple goals and if it can either be a preset or set ON stream during the moment. :3

  18. So I noticed since a couple of weeks ago, Twitch removed the ability to track the drops via the profile drop down. I loved that though. I want it back cuz going all the way to the inventory page takes longer and gets me away from the stream versus just clicking on my profile and seeing the progress from there.

  19. Twitch should allow creators to earn a very specific badge that commemorates streaming for 1,000 hours total since account creation. This way, creators can have a goal to work towards, whether the creator has viewers/subs or not. The focus on this badge should distract the creator enough to avoid burnout from yearning for viewers or subs.

  20. Currently the teams feature is hidden away in a dark web covered section of the Twitch Platform. It's a great tool to grow your communities together with like-minded streamers.

    Here are some basic ideas that I'd love to see, And will hopefully encourage it to be used more

    • Allow team creation via the dashboard: Currently it requires a ticket to create/modify a team, Having it be as easy as changing some channel settings would make it more accessible & easy to "Try out".

    • Allow Affilliates to create teams: If no support agent is needed for team creation, It would be…
