Hi there I have activated an overlay on my stream on the twitch website after adding the ‘Overlay expert extension’ and choosing an overlay I liked, now I can see the overlay has been added to the video on the stream manager but if I go back on the twitch app on my phone to watch the stream the overlays cannot be seen?

Can anybody help with this please?

Watching streams on mobile doesn’t support Video Overlay or Video Component extensions.

If the extension supports a mobile view then there should be a little icon for the extension in the corner of the chat panel in the mobile Twitch app which will open the mobile view of the extension when clicked.
