Want to share your Twitter updates on Twitch? You can add a Twitter panel. This helps make real-time tweets visible while you stream, unlike just showing a link to your Twitter profile. Follow this guide to easily set up a free Twitter panel on Twitch.
Steps for Adding a Free Twitter Panel
In two easy ways, let your audience know the latest posts from your Twitter account through the Twitch panel.
