Twitch is where thousands of communities come together for our favorite streamers, for the games we love, for the lulz, for each other, for whatever. Download Twitch and join millions enjoying live games, music, sports, esports, podcasts, cooking shows, IRL streams, and whatever else crosses our community’s wonderfully absurd minds. We’ll see you in chat.
Here’s a convenient list of other awesome things about Twitch:
Everyone is “about” community. We actually are one: Whatever you nerd out about, you can find your people on Twitch.
Give support, get support: Find new streamers and subscribe to your favorites. Plus, unlock exclusive perks for your support.
Start your own channel: The Twitch app is one of the easiest ways to start streaming. Just create an account, go live directly from the app, and bring people together around whatever you’re passionate about.
You never know what you’ll find: Popular games are always live, but so are music festivals, rocket launches, street tours of Tokyo, and goat yoga. Yes, really.
Dark mode: Y’all love this one. Black and purple have never looked this good together.

While we love watching live streams of our favourite games, there’s more than meets the eye. Try the many live animal cams – and even a whole channel dedicated to “happy little trees” painter Bob Ross.

I'm having difficulty watching any stream as I'm watching on iOS when I click into a stream I would like to watch there is a pause for possibly 10 to 15 minutes without any sounds or video. Usually I expect an advert to play but no adverts play and I have to close the stream, force close app and reopen it about 4 times before it might play all the way through like normal please help! I'd gladly re do a review of 5 stars as I always use this app
Annoying
8Lots
Overall,Twitch is a good service but in my experience the app is annoying and buggy.The main problem i have with it is trying to watch past broadcasts. I do like the features of rewind 10 seconds and skip forward 30 seconds and saving your spot in the past stream but actually trying to watch it feels near impossible sometimes. Sometimes, it will just freeze and not load, present me with a mere black screen and if paused for a long enough time, there is no audio and I have to restart it, which is risky as most of the time the stream just freezes and other times it won’t load. I have also been experiencing a problem where the player will go back 20 minutes or so with no warning but it say I haven’t gone back.Also, the constant barrage of the same overplayed ads is extremely annoying. I understand the need for ads and accept it but it is really frustrating after getting it working finally to be met with the same ad for Jack Ryan or Overlord and just go back to not working
Absurd Trend Chasing
NaoiseO
I use Twitch often to watch streams, even just to have in the background while I'm working. But with the latest update they've reformatted the mobile app in a brainless attempt to make it like TikTok, making it so that you're supposed to "scroll" through live streams. They've been trying to push this "feed" idea for a while, and have now made it the default way of using the platform. Trying to squeeze LIVE STREAMS into short form content formatting is probably one of the least thought out corporate moves I've seen in a while (impressive) and is frustrating to watch this soulless, brainless, senseless trend chasing. Why can't we just have different services, instead of everyone copying one service that happens to be popular for a while????
