Quickly switch between Twitch streams by accessing ongoing streams on Twitch channels with twitch:channel shorthand instead of the full stream URL.

Manage your streams or favorites online – check out the stream dashboard at quadstream.tv/stream and the favorites dashboard at quadstream.tv/favorites

### 1/5 — No way to log into streams.

*2025-12-02*

Nothing seams to work on this app. I assume it’s because to show a steam the playback app, usually a browser, needs to be logged into the streaming service.

### 1/5 — Add subtitles on and off features in settings

*2025-10-31*

Add subtitles in settings

### 1/5 — Suggestion

*2025-08-06*

No ads in any streams in this by any url or links but with subtitles also

### 5/5 — Convenient; good value

*2025-03-21*

Watching Twitch on TV & phone.

### 5/5 — Underrated App for AppleTV

*2024-08-22*

Great app!!!

### 5/5 — Thanks for developing this app!

*2024-07-23*

Features wish list: RTMP/YouTube support. HLS auto link grabber from webpage (so I don’t have to use my PC to haunt for it). 9 streams at once? 16 streams?

### 5/5 — TvOS app update needed ASAP🙏

*2024-04-10*

Hi guys👋 6 months without an update😅 Is it possible to add more sources format files reader beyond only m3u8 type❔🤩 Also, please update the way we add ⭐️Favorites to an easier way to ✏️edit the ⭐️Favorites Name and the ⭐️Favorites pop up as well🙏 Perhaps also add slide left/right or up/down option to change the current source playing to the next ⭐️Favorite on the ⭐️Favorites list on any of the 4 sources playing for easier way to browse between the ⭐️Favorites 💡🫶PLEASE UPDATE THE APP🙏 Thanks

**Developer response:** Hi !YAY, thank you for letting us know about the situation! We are facing the same problem ourselves and have reached Apple about the issue. The app is a universal purchase so getting it on the other platforms should work as you stated. Maybe this is the first time when a tvOS first app releases an iOS/iPadOS version? 😅 Stay tuned and thank you for using QuadStream!

🚨 Update 5th October: we got the device in question working by restoring it from a backup. After this the greyed out "Purchased" button was replaced by the cloud icon enabling the download. Of course this is not a viable solution for all affected users, so we will update the answer when we get a solution from Apple to this App Store bug where the purchase history is not updated (to reflect iOS/iPadOS purchase) after a previously tvOS only app releases an iOS/iPadOS version.

🚨 Update 6th October: we have also received a report that iOS/iPadOS version upgrade (probably any) may resolve the situation for some users and enable the cloud download icon.

### 5/5 — TvOS app update needed ASAP🙏

### 5/5 — Easier way to Edit and Delete Favorites Sources

*2024-02-24*

Hi there Quadstream staff👋
Every time we add a Source to the Favorites, we have to wait for the Favorites Popup to load and go all the way down to select the Source to finally edit as a Favorite. Please let us edit on the same time we are adding the source without having to wait for the Favorites Popup to load and go through the Favorites list to select the new source to finally edit every single time as it is😅
Also, please let as delete the Multiple Sources at once without have to wait the Favorites Popup to load every single time for a different Source we want to delete😅Just load the Favorites list once till we finish using the 🗑️ to delete multiple sources and change it to 📒to navigate and select the Favorites back again✌️
