Set email or push notifications when a channel goes live in a specific category, or with specific tags. As a viewer, I would like to be able to receive a push notification when any streamer goes live in a certain category, or with certain tags, or both! I love finding new streamers to watch, and this would help me discover more of them.
Oftentimes, there are less popular games or categories which will have low numbers of viewers, who are very dedicated to that category. If I'm a viewer who loves an older game, I would have no idea that someone new has decided to try that game unless I already followed them (or happened to be browsing…

No Live Viewer Count I wish viewership wasn’t a public thing. I wish it was something only the streamer/mods could see, if they wanted.
No view counts on any channel. I believe this would provide more discoverability, limit trolls, open up more raiding opportunities and give other viewers the chance to go into channels that they wouldn't normally go to because they have "too many viewers". Plus, sponsors would have to look into how the streamer interacts with their community instead of basing sponsorships solely on viewership. If they want that information, they can always ask AFTER they realize they like your content.

Improve Team visibility and reverse recent design change Twitch recently changed the way Teams are displayed on a streamer's channel page.
Prior to the change, the name and link of the main Team was displayed next to the Game below the Video Player. The change moved this lower to the "About" box and changed the appearance, which makes the Team less obvious and appear non-clickable.I propose to re-add the Team name and link next to the Game name, in addition to the reference in the "About" box.
Teams are a great way for streamers to collaborate. As of now, Teams need lots of love, as they have…
489 votesHey all!
Wanted to let you know that we recently updated the Teams color so that it looks more interactive and noticeable. We decided to add it to the About panel because it is more about the streamer - where it was before was more about that particular stream. Setting this to Partial Release to reflect that not all the feedback in this request was addressed due to that.

[Test] New Options Under Live Video Player Some viewers may notice up to three new buttons below the video player of live channels: Rewind the Stream, Remind Me, and Watch Trailer.
We're rolling out this update for testing purposes, to help inform future features. This experiment is expected to last one month.
We'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions. We look forward to hearing your feedback!

Add more options for recurring scheduling of streams. Please add biweekly and monthly options for scheduling in addition to the current weekly option.
Many people such as myself work a 2 week rotating schedule or work irregular shifts.
More scheduling options would provide more inclusivity for people that don't work a weekly schedule and would benefit the streaming community a great deal.

Allow Streamers to Toggle Go Live Notifications I would like to see the ability to toggle notifications for our followers.
Sometimes I don't want all my followers to see I'm going live, especially on days where I may stream multiple times. Some days I would like to go live without sending out any notifications.
Admin audit: added in additional words to title, so it's easier to find/understand idea from title alone

Add a clear section for alternative text to describe panels Accessibility is a huge, ongoing problem on social media and streaming platforms, and this includes the way panels work on Twitch. I personally use photos to create a consistent brand on my page. Individuals visiting my page who use a screen reader are not able to know what my panels say because they are image-only. I hope that Twitch will consider adding an alternative text section (that will not show as text placed in the description shows). This will increase accessibility for all individuals on twitch and allow those of us who use a consistent branding system to maintain that…

option to use gif in profile or photo. To improve customer interaction with the profile, I believe it should also have the option to add a gif instead of the image. So the person can choose to put an image on their profile or a gif to make it more interactive and cool!

Let everyone schedule day by day streams From another suggestion that is marked as completed:
"You can currently schedule a select day you plan to stream, but this feature is only available for Affiliate and Partners. To do this this, under Frequency, select Specific day and voilà. Thank you for your feedback!"This seems like a stupid feature to only be available to Affiliates and Partners. New streamers that are trying to grow will often try out new things and new times, but Twitch makes them go elsewhere to promote this instead of giving them the tool that is already built to solve this problem.

Put go live notifications in "My Notifications" Currently if you have smart notifications on, you'll get a go live notification on Twitch for a few seconds and then it disappears. While on mobile, your notifications stay until viewed due to how phones work.
I would like all go live notifications to go into "My Notifications" so you can actually see who recently went live from anywhere on the website.

Can not follow unless verified email Everyone knows that bots have been taking a real hassle on streamers lately. If there was a way to combat it like making it so they had to verify their email it would help a bunch of streamers. ( not to mention they have a setting under moderation under chat - verified email chat only ) why not make that setting also mean following be the same.

direct donation buttton on Twitch Hello, I have a feature request but don't know if it has been said yet. I believe Twitch should implement a donation button directly through Twitch so people don't have to go to another website to donate. People would feel safer doing this and people can easily donate with the button on their page. I got this idea from Youtube superchat.

Social links rel="me" When adding social links add the rel="me" option.
This can be used across web systems to verify users across platforms. Take mastodon as an example, having a link on twitch pointing back to my account on a mastodon server will show that I have control over both pages.
you can see here as an example
https://mastodon.xyz/@nextcloud
and a short guide
https://opensource.com/article/22/11/verified-mastodon-wordpressGitHub also does this by default when adding a link to ones profile.

Display next scheduled stream(s) on profile home&offline pages It would be amazing to have a prominent display on the channel page when the next scheduled streams happens.
Where at the moment the AUTOHOST happens, there could be mention of the next stream. "While *** is offline, check out: ... *** will stream next on xx/xx/xx xx:xx".
Also, on the actual video player, when the offline page is displayed, a display similar to the "Most recent video" could show when the next scheduled stream(s) will happen. Maybe even with a countdown?This makes it easier for viewers to get a reminder about the next live stream without checking out…

Channel Language Localisation Lets A Creator Support Multiple Languages (If They Chose To).
For Example If Their Is An English Creator With A Fanbase Consisting Of Different Languages And They Want Them To Feel More Welcome (As An Example). Then They Can Have Different Branding For Each Language, So If Someone Who Has Their Twitch Language Set To Spanish Goes To An English Channel Then If The Creator Choses To, The Channels Branding Can Be Shown In Spanish Instead Of English.

Channel banner video unpauses itself if paused On any offline streamer's channel, whether browsing clips/past broadcasts, at the top of the screen, if they're not hosting another streamer, then usually there will be the 'check out this stream from X time ago' alongside a player that will auto-play the most recent VOD.
if you try to pause it so you can browse through whatever it is you want to look through, it will forcibly unpause itself at some random point in time later, whether it's the immediate next second or a few seconds later.
i can't imagine this is an intended feature. please fix

5 new follows a day for older users I've been on twitch since it started and I've run out of follows, I have to unfollow people that I followed in order to follow new people at this point, and it's totally unfair to older customers that want to follow new streamers they find.

Channel Panel Layout Change the panel layout to be a grid instead of using position: absolute; to make everything align instead of having everything smashed together
how to do it:
Remove all inline stylings of .channel-panels-container
Remove all inline stylings of the panels <div> tags
Add the following styles:
.channel-panels-container {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(4,1fr);
padding: 5rem;
/* change grid-template-columns with @media or @container to fit everything on different screen sizes */
}
