As long as your watch time is going up, it will be fine. Check again later.

Clicking the “change twitch” , solved it for me. If you’ve already clicked that one then restart the browser (not just the tab, the whole browser).
Yeah this seems to be the way to fix it.
However it is worth noting that if it doesn’t immediately fix it or if it’s already been tried there does seem to be a 2 week wait until it will let you try it again.
thanks it worked
Normally my claimed drops appear minutes after claiming but its been hours and nothing has appeared in game, I suspect it might be to do with this whole connected but not connected thing, when I encountered the issue I clicked change twitch and logged in again, this seemed to work but after claiming my drops I’ve gotten nothing, looking at my connections I have a “Gaijin Drops” connection which I’ve been connected to for a year and a “GaijinDrops” connection from just earlier.
Is this conflicting and causing problems?
Does anyone else have the same connections and their drops from this event have appeared just fine?
I don’t want to disconnect from either as I’m not certain that I wont then be unable to reconnect until November
Interesting. Mine is showing both. I was able to claim everything I unlocked today. The boosters and camo showed up in game within minutes for me. (I also did NOT log out, disconnect, or reconnect anything today. I did not have any issues today with watch time or claiming on Twitch, or having the items show up in game.)

Yeah, I have no advice here. Only info I can share is that I personally did not have any issues today with both connected.
One note, for what it is worth, I only use Chrome to watch the streams on desktop. I had consistent issues with every other browser I have used for desktop, except Chrome (with still does rarely give me slight issues with watch time. But clearing cookies+cache, restarting Chrome, logging back into Twitch, has always gotten it working again.)
And finally, I have had absolutely ZERO issues with anything using the Mobile app. (I was using Chrome on desktop today).
I doubt the mobile app will help with claiming the drops though. I think this is an issue with “Twitch’s servers”, something on their end, etc. But, as long as you got your watch time, I am quite confidant that the issues will be resolved for everyone, before the deadline to claim your drops.
And just to post again to try and prevent anyone from stressing too much, you have until next Wed/Thurs to claim. There is time, don’t worry too much yet:
End date+time for this round of drops:

Calendar/timer below for last date+time to claim your drops. The time for me is very early in the morning, so I would suggest claiming your drops the day before (Oct 28th), at the latest:
2026-10-29T09:59:00Z
(This calendar/timer automatically adjusts to YOUR device’s date+time. You can double check by viewing the date+time shown on your Twitch Drops & Rewards (Inventory) page: Twitch https://www.twitch.tv/drops/inventory )
Guess it’s a waiting game then, I expect they’ll show up but it definitely feels like something is off for me.
Oh it is 100% certain that there are issues today, it is not just you. I have read many reports of similar/same issues. Here on the forums, in game chats, on Discord, everywhere.
It is almost certainly not on your end friend 🙂 Hopefully everything will be straightened out before tomorrows stream 👍
Lets say i watch for 4 hours on 1 stream, if i watch the new stream a week later will i still have that 4 hours saved or will it reset
I watched the stream today for about 2ish hours after relinking the accounts however I only gained around 4 minutes of total progress towards all of the rewards. Might be bugged?
does anyone else get told to connect the accounts even though mine already is? I have reconnected them already once and no change
No, that will not carry over, because each weekend/week is a separate “group” of drops.
Read the messages above friend, everything has already been answered.

Same here, I got 4 out of the 5 drops till now but can´t claim them. I guess we have to wait ?
There are some solutions posted throughout the thread :)
Maybe I´m a bit out of order today but I don´t see/get it.
