Twitch users have the ability to customize their chat experience by turning on chat filters that will attempt to hide different kinds of offensive text from the chat window. One of these filters allows users to hide profanity from chat.
Our guide will show you how to hide profanity from chat from within the Twitch mobile application. Once you turn this setting on in a single chat, the setting will be carried across every chat you participate in, unless you turn it off.
Note: These screenshots were captured in the Twitch app on iOS.
Step 1: While watching a Twitch livestream, tap the icon of three dots in the bottom-right corner of the Chat window.
Step 2: Tap “Hide Offensive Language.”
Step 3: If you don’t have any chat filters turned on, tap the gray toggle to the right of “Enable filtering in chat.” This will give you access to the Profanity chat filter. This will also automatically turn on chat filters for categories like “Hostility” and “Discrimination,” but you can turn them off if you’d like by tapping the purple toggle to the right of each filter you want to turn off.
Step 4: Tap the gray toggle to the right of “Profanity” to hide profanity from chat.
