  1. A couple of ideas to improve the way channel points work.

    • Ability to group rewards, and possibility to bulk enable or disable them by group / use case would be if the streamer has rewards that are tied to a game, such as selecting a character, so they can easily switch available rewards when they stop playing

    • More API control over channel points (change active and inactive rewards, approve or decline rewards).

    • Possibility to manually reward viewers with channel points, change modifiers for subs / VIPs, etc.

    • Adding possibility to add cooldowns to redemptions

  2. A few proposals to improve them:
    1. If the streamer wants, give them the ability to create emote purchases that lasts for longer than 24 hours (templates should be: 1 day, 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month)
    2. Allow the users to re-buy emote remotely up to 1 week after it expires or bookmark it for the case they want to re-buy it at any other time.
    3. The above should also apply for modified emotes and their respective modification (exception: seasonal/temporary modifications)

  3. Channel Points to pay for additional Chat Poll votes like bits, exactly what it says on the tin! Right now the polls are a really fun feature and the channel points have a lot of potential in being integrated with an already existing feature, this time giving newer viewers an incentive to stick around instead of only favoring the viewers with money.

  4. Not an idea as such but I reported this issue to Twitch asking them to restore my watch streak and they redirected me to here…

    My watch streak was broken the other day even though I was watching a stream from beginning to end and actively chatting throughout the stream. I was watching in Chrome browser on PC. I got a notification after the stream had ended telling me that my streak could still be saved if I watched a clip or the vod, but there was no content to view in order for the streak to be saved. I…

  5. Has anyone else lost a streak despite being present in the stream for hours?

    I had a 58-stream streak in my boyfriend’s channel. I never miss his streams and I usually watch using Google Chrome. I’m mentioning the browser because Twitch support, whom I contacted previously by email, asked me to provide technical details about my experience.

    The last stream before the issue was on February 18th, and I was present for almost the entire stream (there are messages from me in chat for over 2 hours).

    On February 20th, I checked my streak and saw that it had been…

  6. I would like to suggest a feature that allows streamers to make their live broadcasts visible only to users who follow the channel.

    This would serve multiple purposes, including:

    Preventing stream sniping, especially in games like Fall Guys, where some viewers intentionally join the game just to interfere (e.g., grabbing or chasing the streamer to make them lose).

    Blocking access to non-followers or anonymous viewers, who might not be part of the community or who just lurk without supporting the stream.

    Protecting content from being recorded without the streamer's consent, as some users watch purely to capture or misuse content.

  7. I turned off my channel points on June 8th before the roll out of the Power Ups. I only wanted to do it for 1 stream.

    After the update rolled out, I am unable to turn my channel points AND power ups back on. Please fix this!!! My community can’t gain channel points let a alone use ANY rewards.

  8. Allow viewers to disable watch streak notifications. The watch streak notification covers the channel point redeem options unless you share it, and its super annoying. There's no way to remove that and it makes navigating the channel point redeems more difficult than it already is.

  9. When people use their channel points to redeem rewards, it should contribute to channel point goals. Instead of only contributing counting toward it. This way they can also do fun stuff while progress the goal!

  10. I missed a watch streak reward because a streamer streamed 2 hours late and I went to bed. My Idea, once per streak if you miss a stream, it wont count towards that streak. If you miss a secound stream, then it resets

    Ex. Watch, Watch, watch, miss, watch, watch, miss, streak ends

  11. We need to have real control of the channel points. Give, remove and block channel points to users.

    1º/ To reward behaviors and be able to develop our own "CP" earning systems. Minigames, etc. With unique style.

    2º/ To penalize its misuse, and have the ability to deny points to problematic spectators.

    3º/ To make the channel points system compatible with hundreds of applications that contribute games and add-ons awarded with points.

    4º/ And to be able to transfer all existing Loyalty systems for many years (StreamLabs, StreamElements, etc, etc) to the twitch channel points system.

  12. Allow putting a single user into emote only mode. Funnier than timing out.

  13. The ability to create custom rewards and have those rewards tied to either specific game or specific subscription would be neat.

    Basically have global rewards that apply to all games then have some specific points that only appear/occur when playing certain categories (games).

    Same with roles. We could create custom rewards that would only apply to VIPs, Followers, or to Subscribers, etc.

  14. Right now a user has to first click on a reward to see the cooldown timer. It would be much more convenient and better UX if the user could see which rewards were available, which ones are on cooldown and what the cooldown timer is inside the channel point rewards window.

  16. If someone says they're streaming until a certain time and then end an hour or two early, you lose all of the points you'd bet with if you're on the wrong side of the prediction. This is unfair because there was supposed to be so much more time in the stream for that prediction to potentially come true.

    This could happen in terms of a power outage for the streamer or needing to leave early, but the end result is an unfair result.

    For example: "This streamer is playing a horror video game. Will this streamer scream 18 times or…

  17. Now that Point Rewards can be created, updated, or deleted via the API streamers may be unaware (or simply forget) that an integration with their account is set up to modify point rewards.

    An integration could change something on behalf of a streamer, and they may not know what is making that change.

    A "Managed by XXXX App" could be added to the point reward page, showing the name of the application that updated that reward.

  18. There really are very few incentives to subscribe to streamers channels and the rewards that you receive for watching are minimal. Similar to Mixer, viewers should somehow be able to spend their viewing points to help streamers boost their bit earnings.

  19. It would be great to have the ability as a Mod to disable spending channel points during a specific situation. I have been noticing in the Role Play community that when alot of hate comes into the channel and we go into sub mode only. The haters will wait until they have enough points to post a message in sub mode just to throw Salt or the spam some of the cheaper options to distract the streamer. I know that there is emote only mode but that also feels like a punishment for the subscribers that are not doing anything…

  20. Twitch blocks the Ukrainian word “під” (under), considering it a russian-language insult towards the LGBT community. This greatly hinders the work of Ukrainian-speaking streamers, because of this, it’s impossible to properly formulate the description of channel rewards.
