Twitch Tracker Extension

Re-upload of the original Twitch Tracker chrome extension by SirMrE.
It was accidentally deleted when I moved my email accounts away from Google - Sorry about that!
--------------------------------

Track as many twitch accounts as you wish, and get visual and/or audible notifications when they go live.
Does not use any personal information, or access any sort of sensitive data.
There are no ads, tracking/data collection or other means to monetise this extension (not even analytical data like Google Analytics). It has been and always will be completely free.

Version 1.0.2
--------------------------------
Migrated to new Twitch API - It should work again now.

Known issue
--------------------------------
- The Twitch Helix api does not support non-english channel names. Please import channels from Twitch directly and see if that helps!

Reece (xGattsu) (ID: 00000081d28eecbd) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/19/2023 It was working amazingly well for a long time but recently it has stopped notifying me when a streamer goes live. The notification only goes off when im already watching the stream but by that point its obviously too late. Hope it gets fixed. Will update to 5 stars if fixed.

juser joker (ID: 0000001aff09158b) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 04/10/2023 Could you implement a text box option where you can import the name of the channels that are tracked? recently the extension was corrupted and I lost many of the channels that I followed

Kamit (ID: 000000aea8d5d02f) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/18/2023 The button for adding and removing channels directly from their Twitch page seems to be broken on Edge. Its functionality still works, but the image is broken and it glitches. Any way of fixing this?
