About QualityGuard for Twitch

QualityGuard for Twitch helps keep live Twitch streams at the quality you prefer. Twitch can sometimes drop a stream to a lower resolution and leave it there. QualityGuard watches the Twitch player on live channel pages and restores your selected quality when an unwanted drop is detected, so you do not have to keep reopening the player settings manually. Main features: - Detects unwanted quality drops on live Twitch channels - Restores your preferred quality automatically - Supports Auto, Source, and common fixed quality targets - Treats Source as the stream’s actual highest available quality - Trigger modes for 160p-only recovery or drops below your preferred quality - Player button for pausing QualityGuard on only the current tab - Optional in-player toast when quality is restored - Per-tab badge counter showing restore activity - Lifetime restore stats in the popup - Debug export for troubleshooting QualityGuard has one focused purpose: helping maintain Twitch player quality. It does not block ads, does not modify Twitch network requests, and does not change unrelated Twitch features. Privacy: QualityGuard does not collect personal data, track browsing history, or send data to external servers. Settings, restore stats, per-tab pause state, and recent diagnostic events are stored in your browser using Chrome storage. Limitations: - Designed for live Twitch channel pages - Available quality options depend on the stream - Source means the highest available non-Auto quality for that stream - Does not block ads - Does not modify Twitch network requests
