  1. Allow for console streamers to use Be Right Back screens that appear on mobile devices without streaming to a capture card on PC. Many first starting streamers begin by streaming from their console and want to try and make their stream as professional as possible and Be Right Back screens would be a big step forward

  2. When viewing a user's chat history (often through /user <username>), the history displayed does not live update. The workaround is to close the history for that user, then type the /user command again or clicking on their name from another panel.

    The benefits for this:
    - It would help when trying to view a response from a specific user (Maybe they have won a giveaway or are a VIP)
    - When manually monitoring a bad actor. Moderators would be able to use the user history panel in much more effective ways than the Monitored/Suspicious user feature (which is NOT a…

  4. I think it would be good to implement such a feature as private stream sessions. You could literally stream on "invite-only-mode" that can be used for subscriber stream or if you wanna stream something for only people you want.
    Would also work if you wanna show something to your team or when it comes to schoolwork. Companies could literally do their meetings on Twitch.

  5. When chat is moving fast, it can be hard to grab the right message quickly to perform a timeout/ban, especially in the case of 'hate raids' or other troll action.

    I'd like to see a 'Recent Chatters' listing panel, just the usernames, along with purge/timeout/ban buttons. Preferably configurable both with number of names, how long they stay before they 'fall off', and how many columns, especially for use with tablets/phones to allow quick access to action without alt-tabbing.

    Preferably a list that updates in-place rather than scrolls, to avoid trying to click/tap on a name, only to have it move…

  6. Right now I have to reload all the time in order to have the number of people in my stream up to date.

    It would be great if the list updated itself so that we know real time who is watching me.

  7. Why turn on the broadcast again if it is interrupted due to a bad internet?
    For example there has been a stream in a guy's rally car that was interrupted even before going to the special stage and you can't turn it on unless you take off your seat belt and go into the trunk because the phone is behind the driver.
    There should be a program that shuts down the transmission only after you actually press the stop button or, for example, within the 30 min time limit.

    Another thing, streaming with a mobile phone can only be done…

  8. Similar to how you can connect your Steam account with Twitch and it detects what map you are playing on CSGO (I'm not sure if it's still a thing, but back when I played the game it was a feature on Twitch), it would be nice to have something like that with games that have different heroes, champions, legends, etc. For example Overwatch, League of Legends, Valorant, etc. It would be nice to either also have it auto detect (through API or something) what champion you are playing, or people that play a specific champion all the time can manually…

  10. It would be great if we could make some customizable roles that allow some of our trusted viewers to have access to some of the aspects of a channel. For community run channels (like TwitchPlays channels), the broadcaster of the channel can't be managing every single thing like channel points or community goals. Being able to appoint someone with the ability to do that without necessarily logging in to the channel account or seeing financial information from the channel, would be most beneficial.

  11. Game saturation is something all streamers know about. My idea is plain and simple, along side the new system that tells you what game is best to play should be added a saturation meter or %, with the number of streamers live-streaming it.

    This would help new streamers and others identify which games are best to stream to twitch giving them more of a chance to be seen by others.

    I hope this idea is appreciated and is chosen.

    Much love

  13. Please make it so editors can have access to change stream notifications in stream manager. it doesnt make sense they can change the stream title but cant remove or change the notification from the previous stream. this doesnt help the owner at all because the owner still has to login and change the notification themself.

  14. It would be really great if you made it so streamers could add the ads manager and pre-roll ads timer to our layouts.

    I personally try to run ads in a way that helps my community and I can't see or tell when they are going to run.

    Please and thank you!

  15. Bring the "Users in Chat" tab of the "Channel Tools" from the Mod Dashboard to the Stream Manager.

    Looking at the user info without it overlaying the chat is really useful, so we can continue to read the chat whilst looking at the chat history of a specific user.

    Also it being a separate panel would allow it to be resizable.

    For most convenience clicking on a user or using /user would open the user in this panel if it's present otherwise it just opens the popup like it currently does.

  16. Every time I am about to start a stream, I set my title and category, and then I have to leave the dashboard and go to my actual Twitch page and push the share button to tweet the stream is going live. Can we have a share button on the dashboard finally so I can eliminate the unnecessary extra step?

  17. Display a gauge to indicate whether a livestream is louder or quieter than most other livestreams.

    (Yes, OBS has a volume gauge however everyone uses different livestreaming software, there is no recommended volume setting/guide from Twitch, and livestream volumes widely vary even within the same game category.)

  18. There are times where your stream settings can be scuffed, causing bad framerates among other problems. It would be very beneficial if there was an option to do a test stream that allows you to stream without pushing a notification to your followers.

    I understand that there is a flag you can put at the end of your stream key so that your stream doesn't broadcast at all. However, this only allows you to monitor your bitrate and doesn't allow you to monitor your framerate. When i want to test my stream settings I will have to constantly start and…

  19. In stream manager is it possible to have a sound alert when someone follows, Subs and sends bits to the streamer. in maybe content or settings tab. For us console users so we dont have to rely on something like WizeBot. That only lets you do sounds if you have premium account. And add our own sound.
