Twitch Retold v2.8.0

🚀 What's New:

  • Filter lives by tag: Browse › Live channels and every category page now have a row of tags. It shows the ones the lives on the page use most, or you can type your own and press Enter, up to five at once. Twitch does the filtering, so you get every live with that tag, not just the ones already loaded.
  • The Multistream chat keeps time with the video: Lives arrive a few seconds late, the chat doesn't, so you read the reactions before you saw what happened. Now each message waits for the moment in the video it's about. Your own messages still show up right away.
  • More useful ad reports: The anonymous reports (Settings › Ad-Block) now also count hours watched and the seconds of ads RetoldShield removed, and they tell us when a new kind of ad shows up even if it never reaches your screen. Still anonymous: no channels, no links, once a day at most.

Note

🛡️ RetoldShield Ongoing Development
RetoldShield is under active and continuous development. While it eliminates the vast majority of preroll and midroll ads at native 1080p60 Source resolution without buffering, Twitch frequently updates its delivery infrastructure and a few ads may still occasionally slip through. Continuous engine updates and refinements are being deployed regularly.
