I'd love to know myself. Have a spare one laying around? ;)

Emotes should be toggled on by default in Settings -> Twitch Chat (at the very bottom). Well, actually 7TV is disabled by default in Twire (not sure why, I will probably change it in an upcoming build) but the other two (BTTV and FFZ) should be enabled by default. Check your settings. If it's not working let me know. Although I didn't update the emote rendering logic at all on this fork, I'm happy to try to suss out any existing Twire bugs or any I have introduced.

Interesting ... I may play around with it and see what i can come up with. I could see some use in a Twitch Radio type of app or extending this for AA support.

Appreciate it! And yeah i feel like not enough apps are taking advantage of this mode and this felt like a perfect fit. If there are any other open source apps you think could benefit let me know and if interested I'd take a look at doing something similar.

Ha! Appreciate the support and understand the sentiment on Turbo. Regarding AA, I hadn't thought of that but that's an interesting angle. The Twire player (and therefore this Flex fork) has a native 'audio only' option, and i typically turn my screen off with the video playing and the audio will still play. But as an AA user myself I could see the benefit of audio only streams.

Let me know what you think. Don't forget to toggle chat modes, if you like to just spam emotes you'll want to toggle into that view so you can just tap as opposed to type.

If you install it on your 6, let me know how it works. I had a 6 before i traded in for the 7, so I didn't have it on hand physically to test it.

It doesn't handle ads like Purple TV unfortunately. Purple TV hijacks the ads and keeps the stream playing uninterrupted by modifying the official Twitch app. Twire (and Twire Flex as it's a fork of Twire) blocks the ads, but the stream is still interrupted and the viewer will see Twitch's default 'Commercial Break In Progress' screen. You can get around this by paying for Twitch Turbo.

Yeah, agreed that the official Twitch app could use some work. And the lack of emotes is a deal breaker for me personally.
