Localization

How it works:
  • Choose a relevant category for your idea and check to see if any other users have already submitted this suggestion before creating your own
  • Be clear with your suggestion, provide examples and solutions to the problem you are posing. Suggestions without actionable feedback may be closed without comment
  • Upvote existing ideas, as opposed to creating multiple similar requests
  • Be sure to share your suggestion with others to gain more support!
  • Note: Suggestions are not guarantees that we will take action on an idea. We will try our best to communicate why an idea may not work, but may not always be able to share that information.
  • Titles that are unclear or unnecessarily vulgar may be reworded to better reflect the request for ease of discovery


If you need help:
This forum is for ideas only. If you need help, please check out our help portal for tons of articles that may answer your questions. If you still need help, you can reach out to our support team in the help portal as well!

Appeals or commentary on suspension decisions, support requests, suggestions disparaging others, and non-constructive feedback will be closed without comment.

  3. There is a typo in the watchstreak notifications in both the website and the app versions:
    "Ваша серия на каналесерия из 2 трансляций от ***** прервалась!", it should just be "Ваша серия из 2 трансляций на канале ***** прервалась!"

  4. With UI set to Japanese, the credit card detail UI reads, for example:

    終了まであと1234

    where 1234 stand in for the last 4 digits of my credit card. I believe the intended meaning is "(the credit card number) ends in 1234", but the Japanese UI reads "1234 left until completion"

  5. Customized date & time formatting proposal
    My idea is to allow us to customize which clock/time formats and date formats we have displayed when logged into our accounts, and have this be separate from our chosen language or even chosen sub-language. Say an American person or American streamer is dating another streamer from a different country, for instance a an American streamer living in the US is dating an Australian streamer living in Australia. They sometimes collaborate, not always in person but sometimes from afar, and it could get confusing when they need to plan and check their schedules on…

  6. This can be covered under Subscriptions, Chat and Localization topics/categories.

    Currenly when someone is gifted a sub & "THINAKS" the person through theS Share message that message is in the language of the poster. Some channels have single language chat rules and by not showing these automated Share message notifications as the native channel language it can easily get the person banned from the channel for not following chat rules even though what they are saying is literally "thank your for the gift sub" or whatever the share message may be like CHOO CHOO for hype trains.

    If a channel…

  7. The English UK localisation is completely incorrect, it looks like it's still just English US. Things like channel brand in settings display "Profile Accent Color" instead of "Profile Accent Colour" and other words that are different between the two regions just use the US version. Words ending in -ise have been and are spelt as ending in -ize (even before dictionaries started adding -ize versions as the "main way", which I don't agree with but even before that they were spelt ending in -ize).
    Someone needs to go through and fix all of the errors, actually localising it.

  8. Swedish translation mistake:

    When a Hype Train triggers, “Unlockable emotes” is currently translated as “olåsbara emoter”.

    “Upplåsbara emotes” would be a more suitable translation.

    “Olåsbar” means that something doesn't have a lock or that something cannot be locked. “Emoter” is also not the correct term in this context; “emotes” is the appropriate term.

  9. The German localisation of the newish "save your watch streak" notification is very odd: The word "rettenpeichern" does not exist, it's been there for months, any spellchecker flags it, too. It looks like an accidental mixture of retten and speichern.
    It's as nonsensical as saying "to savrescue your watch stream..." with save+rescue pasted into each other.

    PS:
    This "UserVoice" page's localisation also reads like it was translated as unrelated strings without context, someone please proof-read it in the order it appears on the screen.

  10. In the Ukrainian localization, the message reply header displays a duplicate @ before the mentioned username.

    Comparison: Ukrainian (left) shows @@username; English (right) renders it correctly.

  11. translation error french : when you're getting banned of a chat and ask for detail its written "Vous pourrez envoyer une demande d'annulation de bannissement le 16:21 à 25 juil. 2026" n my language (french) it means "You will be able to appeal the 16:21 at 25 july 2026" instead of "the 25th july 2026 at 16:21" (details case)
    the correct form would be "Vous pourrez envoyer une demande d'annulation de bannissement le 25 juil. 2026 à 16:21"

  12. New option to refund subscription in Dutch leads to duplicate options and is confusing.

    Both the "do not renew subscription" and the new "refund subscription" are translated to "Abonnement opzeggen" and "Opzeggen abonnement". The same words in a different order for two separate options.

    I almost chose the wrong option while wanting to support the creator for the full month without renewal. Fortunately the confirmation made it clear it was the wrong option for what I was intending to do.

    Do not renew subscription should be "Abonnement niet verlengen" en the new refund subscription should be something like "Abonnement terugvorderen"…

  14. If someone writes potentially nsfw word in chat and it is censored as stars (****), upon clicking the stars twitch asks if this word was properly censored. The "No" selection in this case is mistranslated to Finnish as "En", which means "I don't". It should be "Ei" which means "No".

  15. The Russian word "нега" (pronounced: nega) is constantly blocked or held for review by AutoMod. This is a severe localization bug.In the Russian language, "нега" is an absolutely clean, safe, and highly literary word. It is found in official academic dictionaries (like Ozhegov and Dahl). It means "bliss", "serenity", "comfort", or "relaxation" (e.g., used in phrases like "morning bliss" or "relaxation before sleep"). It has ZERO offensive, derogatory, or inappropriate meanings.AutoMod flags it incorrectly due to its spelling, possibly confusing it with a blocked English word or misinterpreting it as inappropriate content.Update the Russian AutoMod dictionary and whitelist the word…

  16. If your Twitch App on mobile is in french, when a streamer is going live, you will receive "(Streamer) est live" which isn't a proper way to say it. It should be "(Streamer) est en live". Tiny mistake ! :)

  17. Website twitch.tv:
    - On the schedule, twitch.tv/streamer/schedule, the timezone listed top left of the schedule is displayed using 'en' locale regarldess of the selected locale. This means that any timezone-abbreviation not recognised by 'en' (en-US) will display as the GMT-offset.
    - In the chat, twitch.tv/streamer/chat, any pinned message will have the time of that message displayed using 'en' locale regarldess of the selected locale. This means a message sent at 15:00 will display as "3 PM" in all locales.

  18. On the subscription info card in English version it states "Your next Sub anniversary is in X days". In Finnish localisation the word "anniversary" is translated as "vuosipäivä". In the context of it referring to a monthly anniversary it would be better to use the word "merkkipäivä" which points to a more general anniversary and not strictly to a yearly one.

    Thank you.

  19. The Dutch translations on the website are incredibly awkward.
    Example: "Schenk een abonnement v"
    "Nog *** abonneepunten te gaan!"

    Or a more obvious example, in chat, whenever someone subscribes:
    "xyz heeft zich geabonneerd op niveau 1. Hij/zij heeft zich voor 22 maanden geabonneerd, en is al 22 maanden op rij abonnee!"

    The pronouns are very awkwardly put there. Nobody says "Hij/zij" like that in Dutch, especially not the young audience that is watching. It feels like the entire Twitch site is translated by a chatbot, or by a 50yro anti-English Flemish grandma who is not used to genderless writing.

  20. Hi Twitch team,

    It has been nearly two years since Twitch discontinued its local operations in South Korea. I understand that this decision was made based on business considerations and respect that choice.

    However, I would like to propose a reconsideration of the regional restrictions that were implemented at the time of withdrawal and remain in place today.

    Currently, Korean users appear to face the following limitations:
    -Video quality capped at 720p, with no access to 1080p viewing
    -Inability to create clips
    -Restrictions on viewing certain clips
    -Inability to purchase Bits
    -Inability to subscribe to channels

    As a result, viewers…
