Add-on summary

Analyze keywords

Support your favorite Twitch streamers by automatically lurking in their stream when they go live.

Twitch Lurker allows you to build a list of favorites based on who you follow and open up muted tabs of their stream as soon as they go live.

IMPORTANT: You must have tabs already open with the Twitch player running in order for you to count as a viewer in their viewer count. If the extension loads a new tab with a stream, it won't count you as a viewer until you open the tab and load the player yourself.

How to use the extension:

  1. Download/Install from the store or sideload it in your browser
  2. Login with OAuth so we can pull your follow list (don't worry, we don't collect any of your info)
  3. Click the stars next to channels in your following list to mark them as Favorites
  4. Order your Favorites list to your liking (the higher in the list, the higher their priority over other Favorites)
  5. Open two tabs with live streams
  6. You are now supporting your favorite content creators and gaining free channel points!

This Addons want way too many informations, it only need an URL for a specific channel, but it wants you to login in into Twitch, which is fine but the via Twitch it wants your Email? Which isn't necessary one bit, probably gets sold or something, no thanks Edit: besides that, if you don't care, the UI looks fine I think and it's probably working fine too

Exactly what I was looking for!

Works perfectly, wonderful extension to support streamers you follow. I'm wondering, is there any possibility of extending this to lurk categories, so that when all followed streamers are offline it will lurk someone from a set category if available? I'm not sure if this is even possible or beyond the scope of the extension, it would be helpful with small categories that not many people stream to. Whether or not this can or would be added, cheers for such a helpful extension.
