Your favorites, remembered.
Pick up after a reload, revisit recent streams, and pin the ones you keep coming back to.
Switch back in a click.
Restore Twitch brings back its player with your original pause, mute, and volume settings.

RIGHT WHERE YOU BELONG
Feels right at home.
It’s still your Twitch channel. Just with another way to watch. Here’s the extension on a real channel page.
SMALL EXTENSION. OPEN BOOK.
Built for viewers. Out in the open.
Free, open source, and made by vrnrn. Settings and stream history stay on your device. No developer analytics or telemetry.
Is it really free?
Yes. The extension is free to use and open source under the MIT license. You don’t need a separate account for the extension.
Does the streamer need to be on both platforms?
To watch the same live broadcast with its Twitch community, the streamer needs a matching YouTube stream. You can also paste another YouTube video or livestream URL. Automatic discovery checks the linked YouTube channel first; fallback search may suggest an approximate match, so check the title and channel before playing.
Can I still chat, use emotes, and earn channel points?
The normal Twitch chat and channel interface stay available, including badges, emotes, and channel points. Twitch controls your account’s access and rewards. Floating chat is a read-only mirror; send messages and use moderation tools in the normal chat.
Will video and chat be perfectly in sync?
Not necessarily. YouTube and Twitch can have different broadcast delays. Sync Now seeks toward YouTube’s live edge and briefly requests 2× playback to catch up. Optional auto-sync repeats every 10 minutes, but exact alignment with Twitch messages isn’t guaranteed.
Does it support 4K and fullscreen chat?
YouTube’s embedded player offers the quality options available for the stream, including 4K/60fps when supported. To bring chat into fullscreen, enable Floating chat under Additional settings → Chat and use Fullscreen with chat. Keep the normal Twitch chat open so there are messages to mirror. Floating chat starts off by default.
What happens to my data?
The extension stores preferences, history, and playback state locally in Chrome. It doesn’t send those to the developer and has no developer analytics or telemetry. Search and playback make requests directly to YouTube and Twitch, which apply their own privacy policies. Read the full privacy policy.
Keep the stream.
Keep your people.
Your next stream deserves the best of both worlds.
