4.7 out of 5
The app has been made unusable after a recent update

While Twitch has always had problems with stability no matter when you look at it, as of recently it’s been extremely unstable. The slightest wrong move and you’ll freeze the video you’re watching. But not only that, if you close your app and then try to come back to the video and resume progress,... Show more

Optimization

Edit: Even viewing the subscribed channel has been dreadful. With audio bug, video bug, random error msgs that force quit stream, after that, loading signs that takes forever. What a performance by the biggest streaming service.

I go on this app mainly to watch live streaming service and co... Show more

Great App..The worst Customer I’ve ever seen

Looking at Twitch from a developmental standpoint, Twitch is terrific. Outside of little things like not being able to change your profile picture, everything seems to run smoothly. However after having Twitch for a while I noticed that my email for some reason wasn’t linked to my profile. I tri... Show more

User interface is TRASH

The controls are atrocious to use. Can’t fast forward or backward without having to click the screen once where the busy user interface pops up, which serves absolutely no purpose. I already am following the streamer so why is this blocking half my screen as if I didn’t already who this guy I’m fol... Show more

Previous version better

The previous version was better in that it would remember games I last viewed. Now, I have to scroll to find the game. Though I did hate that it always showed most recent and it was all or none when deleting them, but oh well on that. If it’s possible to creat a favorites games list I haven’t looke... Show more

App Needs Work for Mobile Devices

I have Twitch for both my phone and iPad. I have never Live Streamed from my Phone, but I attempted a few weeks ago to do a Live Stream from my iPad because of technical issues with my computer. There was no real tutorial process of how much of anything worked for someone NEW to the this app app ... Show more

I love this app but...

Let me get this out of the way: almost all the problems with this app are erased on a computer. Whether on the site or on Twitch , on a computer everything works perfectly.
However, on the phone it lacks a lot of what it needs. You can’t subscribe with this app prime for some reason, and it’s... Show more

Feedback

Needs improvement; this app could certainly use some new and fresh ideas in terms of viewers/viewing capabilities, native communication is basic at best yet struggles with latency throughout Twitch . When asked, the initial response given was from long time users of this app, which was great! oth... Show more

Bugs and excessive ads

There is a recent bug that causes audio from a stream to keep playing even after it is closed, which results in multiple instances of audio playing at once, forcing a restart of Twitch .

Also, why did they remove the button to put the stream picture-in-picture mode so you can watch it outsi... Show more

A major suggestion

I did not know Twitch defaults to auto play. Not to say there’s anything wrong with auto playing streams themselves but I was not aware of it and as a result I assumed a stream would end if I let the phone be. Halfway through a late night stream, I fell asleep without worries. However, I woke up a... Show more

Unstable as of late

I used to never have problems with this app, it was one of the apps I used to always get on and just watch a stream for fun. After a while I left because had life things to handle. But recently I decided it was a good time to get back on this app. Was I wrong, yes and no. While the audio is fine ... Show more

Some problems

A bug still exists that has for a long time where when in dark mode, certain movements or actions can cause Twitch to switch to light mode, which takes a long time and 4 menu pages to flip through to turn it back on which is inconvenient and slightly annoying.

Another issue exists that when... Show more

Updated App Design, It’s a no for me dog

I’m on this app almost every night and it’s not a huge issue but the new update is slightly annoying/ inconvenient. First world problem but when I go onto this app I like being able to see who of all the creators I follow are online so I can choose which channel to watch at that time. Now it’s ju... Show more

App structure

I think this app is cool and different than other platforms. I have a couple channels that I follow and browse some others that peak my interest occasionally. There are some issues that I have with it tho. When you open Twitch , the first thing you see are other channels that are being promoted or... Show more

Very solid but still loads of room for improvement

I have been viewing this app more and more and honestly the best this app experience on mobile is Twitch. But there are a few things that if implemented, would greatly enhance Twitch . There have been a few times where I wanted to link my this app and prime accounts but there is no option to do... Show more

New update

I have been a bit frustrated with the new update for the this app mobile app. I have an iPhone 10, so the corners of my screen are rounded off and when I go to full screen the top and bottom of the video get cut off, along with things being blocked by where the camera is placed. This used to not b... Show more

It was great until a recent update kinda ruined it for me

One of the things that I like about this app is being able to clip moments from my favorite streamers, being able to edit and trimming the clips was always fun to do and letting you see how the clip turned out during and in the end of the trimming process was always satisfying. However after I rec... Show more

Design Problem fixed!

UPDATE: the below problem was fixed! Thank you for making hype train stop taking up all the screen on mobile! Keeping the original review below to show that there was a problem but it was resolved. Obviously still not a perfect app, with problems such as implementation of DMCA rules, but at least t... Show more

5 Years of watching and sometimes streaming on Twitch

What can you really say about this app? There are so many good things that I could say but my main two are community and content. While I do not think this app should ever allow porn or soft core, I do think they have done a good job balancing things that they ban for. I feel as if most streamers... Show more

Possible bug

I search for correct spelling and defenitions using the text chat feature while participating in a stream. When selecting text a popup > look up > my internet browser appears. When then going back to the this app app the stream is in a small window. I select to maximize the stream (trying to... Show more

This must be out sourced to people who never used apps

I love how I can sync accounts like this app to my discord. That’s how you get into sub only discord’s and Twitch makes it so easy! Oh wait no it doesn’t. You can log into your this app but it won’t show you ANY DISCORD CHANNELS. ok fine. I’ll log in online. Sorry no login screen on the home pag... Show more

Many missing features and bugs

Using Twitch for years now and there’s been very little improvement over those years. Twitch allows you to do basic functions such as watch a stream, or tip bits. However if you want to do other things such as tip and subscribe you won’t be able to do that in Twitch . You will have to go to a PC ... Show more

Missing Key Functionality

So, no issue with streaming performance, but either A) there is a LOT missing from Twitch , or B) it’s super un-intuitive and these things are impossible to find. Missing features include:

- The ability to subscribe to a channel via mobile.
- The ability to see existing subscriptions and ... Show more

Honest critic

While Twitch wasn’t the best for mobile streaming, or watching older videos (had plenty of times where the video would reset entirely after watching an ad, or just randomly flicker and then reset back to the start of the video), it did work well enough, though I still don’t understand why the meth... Show more

Unstable

While it often works and is still a very valid, not at all half-baked alternative to the website, it has been fairly unstable for me since day one. I’m nowhere near a frequenter of this app, just occasionally watch the streams of people like Vinesauce and Vargskelethor, but it’s become harder to h... Show more

It’s not a bad app but....

It’s not a bad app but it would be nice to be able to subscribe and donate to people straight from Twitch . Besides all that the this app app seems to have been working just fine for me for quite some time now.
I really enjoy being able to watch my friends and favorite streamers while on the g... Show more

Close to perfect

If your into finds my quality content creators especially gaming this app is the place to be. The only thing that’s always driven me crazy to the point I almost gave only 4 stars is all the QUALITY broadcasters that are buried in such a saturated market. You must sift through hundreds to find a fe... Show more

Great idea, horrific experience

I absolutely love live streams, and this app in general. I’ve been on the this app bandwagon for longer than most, but can’t help to notice these extremely common, frustrating bugs. I will play live streams or VODs, and the audio will just go out. I used to be able to close out stream, change vid... Show more
