  1. Instead of having the streak expire after 24 hours, it should be per stream (still only one stream eligible per day though)

    So if you see a stream on 7am monday, then the streamer streams at 3 am thursday that you miss, you should only lose your streak if you miss another stream after that (say they stream at 11am sunday, if you miss that one you should then only lose your streak)

  2. I really would like a feature to multiply/increase cost of certain channel point rewards based on number of times used for individual chatters.

    As we all know some channel point rewards get used more often than others. Some drastically so. In that sense I am looking for a way to balance out the interaction of long time channel viewers who have collected thousands if not hundreds of thousands of channel points compared to new viewers who have very little.

    In that sense I would like to establish (or if there is an API I can interact with) that would increase…

  3. I have several channels I watch with channel points completely idle and nothing to spend them on and others where I actually want channel points to spend. I'd like to be able to convert these idle points that I can't spend into points of other channels. Maybe something like 10:1 conversion from 1 or more channels where you have up to 100,000 points (points can't be pooled from multiple sources) to up to 3 other channels in a single transaction each for 3 total transactions per month. 100,000 cap per transaction from a source channel to 10,000 points of another…

  4. I watch many world of Tanks streamers, so many times the Drops Counter stops and does not restart on a different streamer. It happens constantly on Chrome and Edge, so it's not the browser. Very frustrating, and I log off Twitch once it happens, no need to keep watching at this point. Can this be fixed please ?

  5. Clicking on a user's nickname allows you to access various pieces of information; it would be useful if the points held by that user were also displayed there.

  6. Have Lead Moderators have access to Roles Manager, but only see the roles they are able to manage.

    Currently, they have no way of knowing they can even give or take away vip, or even unmod people, as the commands do not show up in suggestions. Role manager will make it easier to do a clear out, etc.

  7. let us play games with each other for channel points. like chess, other games. right now if the streamer doesn't do guess games we do not get to use them for much, especially if we have a lot. I think a way to socialize and play games with other member of the community would be so nice.

    edit: and also make it so there is something collectible to work towards in these social games, maybe new name colors or chat icon. there could be very rare ones too, that would be exciting.

    it can start as separate page and we…

  8. I would like to suggest a new feature to help prevent harassment, trolling, and spam in chat — a comment restriction based on channel points.

    Currently, Twitch allows “follow-only mode,” where users must follow a channel for a certain amount of time before commenting. However, this method is ineffective against harassment, as trolls can easily bypass it by creating multiple new accounts and following again.

    Another option, limiting comments to phone-verified users only, also has some drawbacks. While it helps ensure account authenticity, it can unintentionally exclude legitimate viewers who prefer not to share their personal phone number due to…

  9. A viewer's first chat message per each stream could yield some channel points. This might make people interact more, say hello or good luck.

  11. Watch streaks are a nice addition to streams. It incentivizes viewers to come by your stream so they could eventually flex "hey I've been in every single stream since XX day".

    What isn't so great is how inconsistently Twitch seems to determine whether or not your watch streak is continuous or not. It would be nice to get actual guidelines on what contributes to the watch streak. Is it time based? Is it determined on whether or not you chat in said stream? Is it some other random variable that is unknown to everyone? There doesn't seem to be any…

  12. I think that it should be possible to group some of your own channel point redemptions together in a way that makes it to where requirements/availability can vary per user based on what redemptions they've made.

    For example, if I have "First", "Second", and "Third" channel point redemptions, I want to be able to say if "Second" and "Third" aren't already redeemed, ONLY then can "First" be redeemed.

    Or as another example for a cool idea, if you redeem channel point reward A, that means it's what you chose for the stream (almost like a poll thing), and if channel…

  13. Alerts have been great since we can tie them to channel points without having to go through a different application. My idea, is to add a zero delay option so that streamers have the choice to let chaos commence.

    To explain it better, basically with the current way Twitch alerts work, the alerts have a set period of cooldown between one alert and the next. My idea is to have an option to get rid of that cooldown period, so that if the streamer allows it, to have chat redeem point rewards in quick succession to spam the streamer with…

  14. Right now, I have to visit each stream individually to see how many channel points I have. It would be really helpful if Twitch added a centralized view — maybe in the Channels tab, Dashboard or Channel Points page — that shows how many points I have in each of the channels I’ve earned them in. This would make it way easier to track progress toward redemptions and improve the overall user experience.

  18. Allowing longtime viewers who have don't have the necessary means to donate directly the opportunity to show support in an additional way. This could also be beneficial to smaller/newer affiliate streamers who don't have many emotes at this point in their streaming journey. For example, a possible conversion could be 100 channel points: 1 bit.

  20. Suggestion for Improvement in the Channel Points System
    Hello Twitch Team,

    After using the platform for a considerable amount of time, I’ve noticed a recurring challenge that many streamers, especially medium and large ones, face regarding the use of channel points. Many streamers have viewers who have been following them for a long time, leading to a large accumulation of points by these long-time followers. The issue is that, to avoid spam in the redemptions, streamers are forced to set very high prices for the rewards, which can demotivate new viewers who don’t have enough points to actively participate.

    After…
