Your screen stays awake, deleted messages stay readable, and links, emotes and fonts look the way they should.
Everything is switched on from one place: the rocket at the top of the chat. Turn off whatever you don't want.
Your Mac, iPhone or iPad won't dim or lock in the middle of a stream.
Instead of “Deleted by a moderator” you see what was said, greyed out. Messages of timed-out and banned users too.
Images, YouTube, TikTok and X posts open right in the chat, so you don't have to leave the stream.
Channel and global 7TV emotes with name paints and badges, an emote picker and autocomplete.
An @ inbox of messages that mention you or your chosen words, and search across the chat, including from:name.
Highlight the streamer and your words. Collapse muted users, repeated spam and emote-only messages.
San Francisco, New York or SF Mono in place of Kick's font, with + and − for text size.
Safari's own video player on channel pages: picture in picture, AirPlay, audio on the lock screen and keyboard shortcuts on Mac.
A chat-only popout with stream info, and a listen button with a sleep timer for when you only want to hear it.
Safari extensions come as an app. Install Kickoff, then switch it on once.
Kickoff asks Safari for access to one site and nothing else. It has no account, no server and no analytics. Your settings, saved messages and mentions stay in Safari on your device.
It also blocks the ad and tracking services kick.com loads, so the page has less watching you, not more.
