Twitch is a great platform not only because it offers you the opportunity to watch and enjoy a vast diversity of content coming from people all over the world, but it also offers you the possibility to meet all of these new people and make new great friends!
Why would you even care about knowing how to add friends on Twitch? Well, that’s obviously because there is no better feeling in the world than hopping in a discord call with your buds and slaying out in your favorite game!
How to Add a Friend on Twitch
If you found someone that you thought is pretty cool and it seems like you guys kicked it off well, then it’s time to do the deed, it’s time to send them a friend request.
1. Navigate to the top right corner of your Twitch page and find the “Whispers” icon.
2. In the “Search for People” tab write in the Twitch user name of the person you want to add as a friend.
3. After you have found the person you were looking for you should just click on his name and a Whisper box should appear. From there click on the cog icon in the top right corner of the box and select “Add Friend”.
As a side note, even though Twitch Whispers are a pretty neat way to communicate, you will most likely want to share your Discord tags as well, since honestly Discord simply does it better.
Add a Friend From Twitch Chat
If you and the person you would want to add as a Twitch friend are already in someone’s chat then your job becomes even easier.
1. Click their Twitch username in the chat
2. Click the “Add Friend” button that shows up in the menu
Simple as that!
How to Unfriend Someone on Twitch
