   Keeps getting worse. After a year of the worst update one could imagine for a mobile app to watch your favourite streamers, they have now added a mandatory “shorts” type, TikTok wannabe section to the already abysmal ui. I only use this garbage because a few streamers only use twitch, and I honestly hope they learn to multi stream

   Рекламная пауза. Наняли индусов за три корки хлеба, которые не способны нормально встроить рекламу в плеер при воспроизведении записи стрима. Каждые две минуты, останавливается воспроизведение и пока сам не включишь оно не продолжит воспроизводиться.

   cant log out. bad

5. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   I’d recommend deleting this app. Horrible moderation. If you make a new account, you are FORCED to use your phone number to verify your account which im not trusting this horrible app with. Horrible chat system. everything about this app is pathetic.

6. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Worst streaming app. The damn stream can’t keep playing without pausing itself. Literally when streamers go on YouTube to stream this isn’t an issue on their app. I don’t understand why this thing chugs everytime you want to watch a stream it just pauses itself if you want to listen to it in the background.

7. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Ads on top of ads. Used to be a max of 2 mins worth of ads, now its over 2 minutes, and with the way some streamers spam ads its literally unwatchable.

8. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Garbage. This and kick i don’t know if it’s the apple os but I’ve never had an issue logging in and now that I’m using an iPhone it’s impossible to login no matter what I try fix it

9. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

   Too many ads. Riddled with ads. Can’t even watch in full screen mode without an ad popping up on the side

10. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    This mobile app is garbage. This app needs to be overhauled. Random crashes. Bad delay. Chat crashed

11. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    😔. Basically no one is watching and I’m about to give up now basically this app basically kind of sucks

12. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    L twitch. I tried to stream from my phone and it said I had to verify myself so I tried but everytime I tried to go to my messages to check it when I came back it had sent me back to home screen and now it won’t let me stream l twitch bro

13. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Buggy after update. Whatever y’all did to twitch with this new update done made it buggy and laggy. One day it’s working smooth then the next day it’s bugging. Chat freezes, messages don’t send, streams lag when you try to type. Go back to the old twitch because now I can’t even enjoy streams without lag

14. ★★★★★account bans or deletion without explanation

    Don’t try. They banned me on a false ban. Won’t read my appeal and was making them tons of money so sadly I wouldn’t waste ur time. Streaming is dead anymore.

15. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Twitch is a bad platform. I was trying to follow some streamers but most of streamers on twitch they ultimate hate autistic people and they ignored them and even worse the popular and Vtube streamers and I trying to say I followed some streamer but she ignored my message on the chat of twitch and she blocked my message and Twitch is a bad platform for autistic people and most of the streamers of twitch is a autism haters

16. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Streamers Streaming in 1440p Crash The Apple TV Twitch App. Whenever a streamer is streaming in 1440p the Apple TV app crashes. Even if the settings in the app are set to 1080p, it still crashes.

17. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Adds. Adds every 5 minutes that are 5 minutes long it’s unwatchable. That and all the half naked women on here begging for money. Should be calling it tits not twitch. Have a nice day.

18. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Buggy. Why is the PIP mode broken when I exit the app? It used to continue playing but now it stops the stream. These bugs are terrible. Plus the comments are broken, I feel like the interface is getting worse. Chat display and overall interface crashes. Overheats frequently

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Always has bugs. Chat freezes, messages don’t go through, and poor management

20. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    Too many commercials!. I have amozon prime but i still get too many commercials.

21. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Banned. Banned

22. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Subscribed but not subscribed. After the update, it messed up my subscription. On my pc my subscription to a streamer’s channel works fine. But on mobile Twitch on the same account it says I am not subscribed to them. Actually cursed.

23. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Streams still freeze constantly after many updates. Embarrassing for Twitch.

24. ★★★★★slow performance and long loading times

    They decimated the UI last update. The app is slower and buggier than ever before. Makes my phone overheat and lag out and the only things they changed was to make it look like a web version. No more iOS interface, everything is small text and clunky. If it didn’t run so much slower, I maybe wouldn’t hate it, but the app is basically unusable now.

25. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Hate this app. It doesn’t let me change my name

26. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Unusable battery hog. Ever since a week ago, the app uses so much power that my phone overheats and slows to a crawl within the first two minutes of watching a stream, and then my battery drains at a ridiculous rate. Twitch app is constantly having random problems, but this one is keeping me from using the app almost entirely.

27. ★★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    New update it’s AWFUL. Idk why they insist on changing things for no reason only to break them. The twitch app gets worse with each update. Genuinely it was way better 2 years ago. This latest change is garbage. The long press on messages to reply or copy lost its haptics and is clunkier. The zoom in on video is super glitchy and often activates PiP. And worst of all it’s draining my battery at like 3x what it used to (which was already really bad) and heating my phone like crazy. I have the newest pro iPhone mind you. Also you broke the chat! Went back to the old ios keyboard (why???) every time I try to select text in my message it scrolls to the bottom of the message, the paste button doesn’t work half the time, it’s borderline unusable! Just put it back and stop messing with stuff!

28. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    Horrendous. too many ads, and the fact that when you launch the app it starts in tiktok mode instead of just launching the way it used to, on your followers list.

29. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Ads and money. Spend lots of money or be destroyed by relentless targeting of 3 +min ads queue up sometimes 7 ads in a row then it will replay them all sometimes if connections faulty or they just hate you. Too many subscription based entertainment models meant to exploit continuous access and forgetting to cancel subscriptions. Twitch have always had ads so why a problem now? They have ramped it to a high degree for a long period of time and have not changed they want to instead normalize it even after they see all the warning signs and growing pains, even worse their cringe.

30. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Poorly moderated. Still a questionable site utilizing AI to govern their TOS standards which are poorly handled and reviewed by administrators not capable of running a lemonade stand much less a streaming platform. YouTube probably a better choice for you.
