  1. I have had complaints from multiple chat users today that their channel points were not collecting. On further investigation myself I have concluded that Twitch have AGAIN changed their policy on how many channels views/channel points count for and have now reduced it to a maximum of TWO CHANNELS?!

    This is RIDICULOUS!? It impacts viewers negatively as many channels they watch will offer giveaways/rewards/etc. for channel points which they like to collect. In addition it impacts streamers negatively as it significantly lowers their average viewership.

    This is a LOSE LOSE situation for viewers and streamers alike. Please, with URGENCY, restore…

  2. Hello Twitch Support Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. I'm a dedicated Twitch viewer and I wanted to express my enthusiasm for the platform. I have been enjoying the interactive elements like channel points, which add a lot of fun and engagement to the viewing experience.

    I wanted to suggest a feature that I believe would enhance the community aspect even further. It would be fantastic if there was a way for viewers to see an approximate count of channel points that others have. This feature could encourage healthy competition, collaboration, and engagement among viewers.

    Having the ability…

  3. Currently you only can input text for channel point rewards. Let's change that. Here are some ideas:

    • Numbers only
    • dropdown list
    • sliders (with adjustable range)
    • up to 6 buttons (text or icons)
    • color picker
    • Other usernames in chat
    • 1-5 stars rating
    • date/time
    • secret (isn't shown in chat, except for >= moderators)

    the payload of those results can be sent as regular content, as if they were entered as text. This would remove a lot of explaining to viewers how to use channel points.

    No more "If you enter \"can you set your LEDs to brown?\" into the field, my script…

  4. I think a setting to remove channel points functionality for yourself as a viewer (either globally or, even better, on a per channel basis as well), including predictions. This would be intended as an accessibility feature for people who struggle with psychological problems such as addiction to gambling.

  5. I think users should be allowed to give their channel points to other users. You choose who you want to give your channel points to and how much channel points you want to give them. It could be useful in multiple circumstances.

    For example, a user has 45k channel points and wants to redeem a reward that costs 50k. A different user may be generous and then give the first user 5k channel points so they can afford the reward.

    Since streamers have infinite channel points for their channel, they could give users points too. For example, they could have…

  6. A section similar to emote analytics but for channel point redemptions.

    After clearing out your channel point rewards queue, there's no longer a way to see what was redeemed and how many times. While streaming, it's very hard to keep track of that.

    Having a dedicated section for analytics would allow creators to remove redemptions that are only being used by a small portion of viewers or even one or two people and replace it with something more can enjoy.

    Creating this analytic will also help creators increase chat engagement as they'll understand better what they can do to prompt…

  7. Discord has ephemeral messages for specific actions that only the person doing that action can see.

    Having a similar system for users redeeming rewards would prevent the chat from spamming with the rewards where no one can now chat, but would also allow viewers to notice that rewards have been redeemed.

    Additionally, these messages could also be sent back to a user when a channel point reward is marked as unfulfilled. This would allow services using the API to send a message along when they are unable to fulfill the reward.

    An example of a rejection message with Crowd Control…

  8. The way the current stream streak works is kinda pointless.

    You didn't miss 3 streams and you can share that you didn't missed 3 streams. And you only have another of that if you do miss a stream and restart another 3-stream streak.

    Do you remember that you have the "Monthly Recap" feature that shows you have XX of YY streams watched.

    Make the user the option to share at the first watched stream of the month how many streams he did watched on the last month.

    That would make it way more meaningful for the users to share.

  9. The BEST point system i used was from a third party & here are things i wish Twitch channel points would add.

    1. A feature where we can reward viewers with channel points as a incentive for giving bits MULTIPLE TIMES. Instead of just recieving bits once a month. It should be whenever they give bits. Of course this feature should allowed to be enabled/disabled by the streamer.

    2. A feature where we can reward viewers with channel points for gifting subs. Another feature that could be enabled/disabled by the streamer.

    3. A general "give points" feauture. Theres, plenty of times where I…

  11. Several streamers have similar redeems of the same cost. For example, to play different sounds, to apply different voice-modifiers, to activate different light-effects, to change the avatar's outfit.

    Streamers who have many option available, it will create a very long list of redeems, making the list cumbersome to go through. So an idea is that all redeems of the same type is grouped together into a single redeem, which sub-redeems, where you set the price for the group, and all sub-redeems have the same price.

    This would not only make the list less cluttered and easier for watchers to go…

  12. It would be great to have Channel Reward Variants that a viewer can pick from after selecting a reward. I have things like different camera filters and background images that viewers can change. Point Rewards like this require user input to communicate to the streamer (or integrated software) which choice the viewer would like. However, a typo can break integrated/automated features and abusing the user input wastes the reward and can lead to awkward situations. Setting up "selections" of variants to choose from after selecting a reward could allow for limited user input which can lead to flawless execution of…

  13. So, I was an affiliate and decided to leave the program and really miss the interactive channel point system. It would be LOVELY if you all would give channel points to ALL streamers because it just makes sense. Channel points are a great way to have interactivity with your community and it SUCKS that I, a non-affiliate or partner streamer, can't use the feature. I may be in the minority of this though. My question is though, why is it only for affiliates and partners anyways? It's not like you make money off the channel points anyways, so it really…

  14. Implementing a reward system based on watchtime using channel points could be a great idea to incentivize viewers to spend more time on your channel so that they can get the channel point rewards a bit faster.

    Let me elaborate:

    Watchtime-based Reward Tiers:

    Create a reward system where viewers earn channel points based on their total watchtime of the streamer. For example:

    1 hour watched in total = 50 channel points
    5 hours watched it total = 250 channel points
    10 hours watched in total = 500 channel points
    25 hours watched in total = 1,500 channel points
    50 hours…

  15. A few years ago, you launched the "Boost this Stream" feature. Thanks to channel points, viewers were supposedly able to boost the current stream so it could be seen in the Twitch main suggestions feed.

    However, I never saw this feature appear whatever the channel size I watched the stream. It's a pity because this feature sounds great. Not only it would make the channel points very useful but it also would help the little channels to get visibility efficiently. Of course, in order to make it fair you would have to adapt the required amounts of points in terms…

  16. It is not that big of a change but it still bugs me. This will more likely be a quality of life kind of change.i always saw channel points in K(like 15K points) but after I have changed my mobile, could be cuz I am Indian and we use thousands to count but it changed to T(15T). I just liked the good ol K and I did not find any way to revert it or change it. Would be nice if you have a standard of representation,or if that is not possible, give us a feature to change how to…

  19. Predictions are very often used for things like numbers and time. For example "How many attempts will this take?" or "Can the streamer do task X in 10 minutes?"

    So my suggestion would be to have a box or prediction preset where the mods can update the number of attempts (or whatever number) or have a timer related to the prediction so the viewers (and mods) can follow the progress more easily

  20. I would like more channel points settings:

    1. make Community Challenge without an expiration date. Or make a separate section as a "Points Goal". Let's say if you get a certain number of points then there will be something. Essentially the same system, but long-term.

    2. Give viewers the opportunity in the rewards themselves to enter the number of points he wants to spend. For example, to compile the top games on the stream. And the viewer himself will add how many points he wants to add. Instead of the streamer creates several rewards with a fixed number.
