Coming in v1.1 & v2.0
What's Next
StreamRadar v1.0 is live. Here's everything planned for the next releases — bigger discovery, smarter tools, true small-streamer radar, and full YouTube Live support.
New
Feature 01
⛶ Popup Window Player
The player opens in a dedicated Chrome popup window — no address bar, no distractions. Control everything from within the player itself.
- The player opens in its own focused window — no browser chrome, no distractions
- Change your game, viewer range, interval, and language without ever leaving the player
- Start and stop the feed directly from the player — no need to go back to the extension
New
Feature 02
◁ Fresh Start Every Time
Every time you open the extension popup, filters reset to defaults. Your favorites and feed state are preserved — just the search fields clear.
- Open the extension and start fresh every time — no leftover filters from your last session
- Your favorites are always saved and waiting for you
- Every session is a new opportunity to find someone unexpected
New
Feature 03
★ Random vs Favorites Mode
Switch between discovery mode and a dedicated Favorites feed that only shows your starred streamers — when they're live.
- Random mode — discover new streamers based on your filters
- Favorites mode — tune in only to the streamers you've already starred, whenever they're live
- If none of your favorites are streaming right now, StreamRadar lets you know
New
Feature 04
◆ Multi-Game Preferences
Enter up to 4 games at once and StreamRadar rotates through streamers playing any of them — like a playlist for live content.
- Pick up to 4 games or categories and StreamRadar finds streamers playing any of them
- Each stream card shows which game is being played so you always know what you're watching
- A "New Releases" option lets you explore games that just launched — before everyone else finds them
- Rotation shuffles across all your selected games so every stream feels different
New
Feature 05
⚙ Game Autocomplete
Start typing a game name and a dropdown of matching live categories appears instantly — no more guessing exact spelling.
- Start typing and matching game names appear instantly — no guessing at exact spellings
- Results are always current, pulled directly from what's live on Twitch right now
- Works for massive games and niche categories alike
Foundation Feature
Feature 06
🔌 Stream Indexer + Wildcard Mode
The biggest v1.1 feature — and the foundation everything else builds on. A background indexer continuously maps small streamers across all of Twitch, making true small-streamer discovery possible regardless of game or tag.
- Wildcard Mode: Hit one button and StreamRadar throws you into a completely random live stream — any game, any category, within your viewer range. You may end up somewhere you never would have searched for.
- Tag search without a game: Search by tags like "DropsEnabled" across all of Twitch at once — no need to pick a specific game first
- True small-streamer discovery: Find tiny streams across every category on Twitch, not just the ones you already know about
- Stream data stays fresh and near real-time so you're always seeing who's actually live right now
Version 2.0
Feature 07
▶ YouTube Live Support
StreamRadar was built from day one with YouTube Live in mind. The backend architecture, normalized stream objects, and player are all designed to support a second platform. v2.0 brings YouTube Live into the rotation alongside Twitch.
- Switch between Twitch, YouTube Live, or run both platforms in the same feed simultaneously
- Twitch and YouTube streams appear side by side in the sidebar with clear platform badges
- All your filters — game, viewer range, language, keywords — work the same way on both platforms
- YouTube streams play natively inside the StreamRadar player, just like Twitch does today
- Star streamers from either platform and find them all together in your Favorites list
Version 2.0
Feature 08
◆ Microsoft Edge
Edge runs on the same Chromium engine as Chrome — StreamRadar requires virtually no code changes to run on it. Available on the Microsoft Edge Add-ons store.
- StreamRadar for Microsoft Edge — every feature, the same experience
- Available directly from the Microsoft Edge Add-ons store
- Full support for filtering, rotation, favorites, sidebar, and live chat
Version 2.0
Feature 09
▲ Firefox
Firefox uses a similar but distinct extension system. StreamRadar's code will be adapted to run on Firefox and published to Mozilla Add-ons (addons.mozilla.org).
- StreamRadar for Firefox — the full discovery experience on Mozilla's browser
- Available from Mozilla Add-ons (addons.mozilla.org)
- All core features supported — filtering, rotation, sidebar, favorites, and live chat
