MultiStreamer is an app for Android phones, tablets, and Android TV that lets you watch multiple Twitch streams simultaneously. It is an unofficial, third-party viewer, and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Twitch Interactive, Inc. or Amazon. This policy explains what data the app accesses and how it is handled.
When you sign in with your Twitch account, the app receives and stores the following information locally on your device:
This data is used solely to authenticate with the Twitch API so the app can load your followed streams, display live content, and connect to chat.
You can use MultiStreamer without signing in. A guest is not asked for an account, and nothing in the list above exists for them.
Sign-in happens on Twitch's own website, in your browser. MultiStreamer never sees your Twitch password, and no password is ever typed into the app.
Twitch returns the result by redirecting to https://multistreamer.tv/oauth, with the access token in the URL fragment. A fragment is the part of a web address after the # character, and browsers never transmit it to a web server — so the token reaches your device without passing through ours. Android hands that redirect directly to the app when it is installed. In the cases where the page is shown instead, it displays nothing but a confirmation: it does not read the token, store it, or send it anywhere.
Because this sign-in method issues an access token and no refresh token, MultiStreamer holds a single credential that expires on Twitch's schedule, and signing in again is what replaces it.
Your access token, your Twitch profile information, and your app preferences are stored locally on your device. They are not persisted on our servers.
What we keep on our own servers, and only for a signed-in user, is:
Nothing else about your account or your viewing is stored by us.
Channel groups let you arrange the Live tab into sections of your own. A group is a name you choose and a list of Twitch channels you put in it.
Groups are stored on your device. Where the app syncs them so they follow you between your devices, they are saved to our servers against your Twitch user ID: the group names, the channels in each one, whether each is shown, and the order you put them in. We do not store what you watch.
You can export your groups to a file, or delete them, from the Channel Groups screen. Deleting them there removes the copy on our servers too.
Live Alerts are off unless you turn them on, and they cover only the channels you pick. If you never turn them on, nothing in this section applies to you and nothing described here is collected.
Turning them on stores, against your Twitch user ID: the channels you selected, whether newly followed channels should be included automatically, and the list of channels you follow. That last one is what lets a channel you follow later be added to your selection; it is not used for anything else.
Each device you enable alerts on also registers a Firebase Cloud Messaging registration token, along with the app version, OS version and language, so the notification can be delivered and written in your language. That token identifies a single installation of the app on a single device. It is used only to send the alerts you asked for, and is never shared with anyone or used for advertising. Delivery is handled by Google's Firebase Cloud Messaging; your use of it is subject to Firebase's privacy terms.
Turning Live Alerts off, or signing out, removes that device. Uninstalling the app removes it as well, once Google tells us the token is no longer valid. Your channel selection is kept so that turning alerts back on does not mean picking everything again; you can clear it from the Live Alerts screen or by emailing us.
The app communicates with Twitch's APIs (api.twitch.tv and id.twitch.tv) to authenticate your account, retrieve your followed channels, and load stream data. The app also connects to Twitch's IRC chat servers when you view a stream so chat can be displayed. Your use of Twitch is subject to Twitch's Privacy Policy.
Chat emotes and badges are loaded from BetterTTV, 7TV, and FrankerFaceZ. These requests contain only the channel identifier needed to fetch that channel's emotes, and no authentication credentials are sent to these services.
MultiStreamer does not use any third-party analytics, advertising, or cross-app tracking frameworks, and does not access the Android Advertising ID.
For basic usage monitoring, our backend records a minimal aggregate count: when a signed-in account connects, we store its Twitch user ID together with the calendar date and whether the app was running on Android or Android TV. This lets us display simple totals such as how many people are using MultiStreamer now and how many unique users there have been over time. We do not store what you watch, your chat activity, your IP address, or any browsing behaviour, and this data is never used for advertising or shared with third parties. Anyone who is not signed in is not recorded.
Where the app supports sending chat, your Twitch username and OAuth token are used to authenticate with Twitch's IRC servers. Messages are sent directly to Twitch and are never routed through the MultiStreamer backend.
Your data is never sold, shared with, or transferred to third parties, except as required to communicate with the Twitch API on your behalf and with the emote and badge services listed above.
You can remove all stored data at any time by signing out within the app or by uninstalling it. This immediately removes all locally stored credentials and account information.
The aggregate usage record described above is not stored on your device. You can request its deletion by emailing us at the address below.
MultiStreamer does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The app requires a Twitch account to sign in, which has its own age requirements, and the app is rated for adults.
