Bot patchnotes

Public ViewPulse bot changes for streamers and viewers.

ViewPulse Bot Patchnotes - Version 0.13.0 Beta
October 22, 2026

New channel name, same progress
- Streamers are identified more reliably after changing their Twitch name.
- Existing viewer levels, XP, streaks and channel settings stay linked to the same channel.
- A name change alone does not require granting bot permission again.

An explicit bot setup
- Signing in as a viewer does not activate a bot for your own channel.
- New streamers enable the bot for their channel in a separate step after signing in.
- Existing active channels can continue using ViewPulse.

Longer streaming breaks
- After six months without a detected live stream, bot access may be paused and the slot released for other streamers.
- This pause does not delete stored viewer levels, XP or settings.
- The channel is reviewed before access is restored.

Note
ViewPulse is still in beta. Thank you for your feedback and support.
