📢 Release Notes - v2.4.0

✨ New Features

📊 Cross-Platform Viewer Totals

  • SheevChat can now show live viewer totals across Twitch, YouTube, Kick, and TikTok in one place.
  • Multiple active YouTube broadcasts are included in the combined total.
  • Viewer displays now more clearly distinguish live counts from recently seen chatters.

💬 Faster Reply and Quote Actions

  • Chat messages now include compact Reply and Quote controls alongside Pin.
  • Reply directly to Twitch and Kick messages, or quickly mention the original chatter on YouTube and TikTok.
  • Save memorable chat messages as quotes with one click, including the chatter's name and source information.

🎁 Cumulative Stream Credits

  • Repeat contributions from the same viewer are now combined during the active session.
  • Gifts, amounts, diamonds, and other supported contribution totals update automatically across Credits displays.
  • Manual Credit entries remain separate, giving you full control over custom acknowledgements.

🔧 Improvements

🎵 Spotify Media Requests

  • Restored Spotify-only Media Requests queue visibility and playback controls.
  • Pause, resume, skip, and volume controls now work directly with Spotify even when the request is not part of a SheevChat-managed queue.
  • Queue information remains available more reliably during pauses and temporary Spotify errors.

📝 Better Quote Management

  • Quote numbers now follow the visible quote list more naturally, including after deleting the latest quote or clearing the library.
  • Import quotes directly from the Quotes toolbar with a preview before anything is added.
  • Imports now support SheevChat and third-party JSON, CSV, plain-text quote lists, and saved StreamElements data.
  • Duplicate and invalid quotes are clearly separated during import, while imported IDs no longer interfere with your existing numbering.
  • Quote deletion now uses a clearer in-page confirmation and returns focus to the quote tools when finished.

🎵 TikTok Reliability

  • TikTok viewer totals remain visible more consistently during active streams, even when updates from TikTok are intermittent.
  • TikTok chat sending now uses fewer resources between messages while remaining ready for short bursts of activity.

🪟 Friendlier Confirmations

  • Confirmation, warning, and copy dialogs throughout SheevChat now share a consistent, theme-aware design.
  • Dialogs provide improved keyboard navigation and return focus to the control you were using when they close.
