Delay is very noticeable.
Amazing app, and it would be a full-on 5 stars if it weren’t for the chat delay.
It’s about 4 seconds (edit to update that it’s more like 6-8 seconds behind) for me behind the official Twitch app (which is consistently about 1 second behind when using Twitch on a PC). Makes conversations a drag to follow as the flow is out of sync despite low latency.
I’ve had moments where a message just sits and spins with the loading animation, and it is then posted about a minute later. Internet connection on my end is fine and the device is good (iPhone 17 Pro Max, iOS 27.0.1). Just something that only happens with this app randomly.
I don’t expect it to be instant, but it really does hinder chats for those who participate in them often as you will always be behind everyone else, which creates confusion during conversations between those in chat and streamers (paired with the delay the streams are already usually set on).

Best Twitch App By Far
This is a fantastic app, it is objectively better than the official twitch app in pretty much every way. It has a ton of options to customize, many more than I anticipated. And it is all completely free. Thank you.
Best Alternative for twitch
Highly recommended using it,So much features you use like BTTv emotes and options for watching,it’s growing tho so give some time to warm up too it
Hi, why does the player always pause/refresh when switching to vertical or landscape
Title says it all, it’s not a smooth transition. It pauses the entire stream, forces you to tap the middle screen play button instead of just playing like a regular video. This was fixed briefly 6 months ago, not it doesn’t work anymore. App is good but 3 stars 🌟 and nothing more because I know this app is capable of doing that, but for some reason rolled it back

HOLY
SO GOOD SO GOOD ITS MY FAVORITE COLOR U CAN CHOOOOSE THE COLOR ALSO ITS SO SMOOTH NOTHING LAGS IM SO HAPPY RNNNNN THANK U CREATOR PERSON 💛💛💛💛💛
Used to work better
It used to be basically perfect, but recently there’s a huge delay between the stream and the player, around 20s, which means the chat and stream are out of sync, Dunno what happened.
New update is phenomenal! Great app that fixed the few things that needed to be
Love the update that allows p in p easier and stopped the freezing. Much better than twitch app obv
I like it
I mainly use Frosty for Twitch chat while I have the video on my iPad. I love seeing the BTTV & FFZ emotes instead of just words.
Good for emotes, bad for watching streams
Low latency mode is still about 15+ seconds behind
Please add support for twitchs vod api.
App is quick and seems to work as expected. But can't watch twitch vods. The only thing i use twitch for is watching their vods.
Horrible UI and takes forever to load
Not sure why but it takes 10-20 seconds to load into a single stream on a 900 MB/s network. Bad ui too
OPEN SOURCE
OPEN SOURCE WINS AGAIN BABYYY (can be buggy but it isn’t constant ad fodder that barely works)
Ads indefinitely halt video
Works well overall and the UI is decent, but over half the time an ad attempts to play the screen goes to black and attempts to load the ad indefinitely. Opening another stream or reloading the stream doesn’t seem to fix this. Only after a couple minutes of attempts will the stream resume and only after reloading or switching streams.

So good!
10/10 Love using this app I would like a way I could add multiple streams at once if that’s even possible but all in all I love this app.
latency
the chat features are great, but for video, there's a whole base 15-20 second latency at all times for any stream so it's almost unusable from a viewer's perspective.
Solid Twitch chat app
This is the best alternative to the horrid official app, tons of features and customization settings. Overlay the PiP video from the official app and there’s no delay.
Could’ve have had a better app
It easily became my go-to app. If you’re someone like me who likes to see all the bttv/7tv emotes like widepeepohappy + all the classics, this app is for you, It makes the whole watching experience better, Theres also a better way to reply, past messages and more. I really like it. They have had some bugs in the past and some pop up here-and-there but the updates show they care and that’s appreciated :) very much :)
