webCal/iCalendar integration for the schedule
I would like to see an integration, where I can import an iCalendar (like Google Calendar, Apple iCal, etc.) to sync with my schedule on twitch. Or the other way round an export function or a API, with which I can import my Twitch schedule to an application that supports iCal/webCal.

It's not exposed on the site for now, the API does have something for this.
Documentation:
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference/#get-channel-icalendarThis is what the iCalendar URL looks like, replace {} with your numeric Twitch ID:
https://api.twitch.tv/helix/schedule/icalendar?broadcaster_id={}It does have an issue though, check this out and feel free to vote on it:

Ich plane meine Zeit mit Google Kalender, um freie Zeit für Streams zu blocken und habe dort schon einen Twitch-Kalender erstellt, leider kann ich den noch nicht automatisch mit dem Twitch-Streamplan abgleichen lassen, um meine Zuschauer über die Streaming-Zeiten automatisch zu informieren. Wäre toll, wenn das integriert wird.

This will be a great option to have where I can edit my schedule on iCal under the Twitch calendar, as it is always readily available working with other my calendars instead of having to login to my Twitch account every time and then . Moreover, please make an option to edit my Twitch schedule on the app. Thank you kindly.

An addition, I forgot to mention:
for regular viewers it would be a nice comfort feature to subscribe to a calendar, so they can see, when their favorite streamer is on next, before they open the Twitch app.For streamers, who manage their streams and other time-based commitments it would be a nice feature, because they only would to have to manage a single source of information.
