Limerino

Browse and follow Twitch channels, watch up to four streams at once on iPad, translate and search chat, pick Audio only, and use Limerino in eight more languages. BROWSE AND FOLLOW The channel switcher's Browse button opens Categories and Live channels, with a language filter. Tap the heart to follow a channel; unfollowing asks first. User cards have Follow too, and /follow and /unfollow work in the message box. VIDEO Audio only now plays off screen with a Lock Screen card. Pick it from Quality in the player controls, or tap Hide video in portrait. Turn your iPhone sideways and tap Full Screen to give the stream the whole screen. To watch one channel while chatting in another, hold a live channel you have open in the channel list and choose Watch stream here. CHAT Hold a message and tap Translate to read it in your language, translated on your device; emotes stay as they are. ⋯ > Search chat finds words, phrases or people (from:name) in the loaded messages and jumps to them. Double-tap a message to copy it, and give anyone a nickname from their card that only you see. Emotes show in whispers, and a whisper alert opens its conversation. EMOTES The emote picker puts Emotes and Emoji in the title bar and your draft at the bottom, with a delete key and Refresh Twitch emotes. Hold an emote to see it large. Emotes look sharper on high-resolution screens, and ffzSlide, ffzArrive and ffzLeave move. Save Image in the share sheet adds an emote, GIF or image to Photos. CHANNEL POINTS, DROPS AND BADGES When Twitch offers a watch bonus, Claim bonus sits beside your balance; nothing is claimed for you. ⋯ > Channel Points shows your watch streak, and Profile > Your Drops shows your progress with Claim. Earnable now marks a badge whose Twitch drop is running, says what to do and counts down to its end. BOT CONTROLS Profile > Connections links your chat bot service. In your own channel, and where that service gives you a role, the bot button at the top of chat opens the bot's controls: mute or invite it, and edit its commands, timers and spam filters. MODERATORS Settings > Behavior > Delete without asking skips the confirmation, and your own messages offer Delete. Each timeout or ban shows one notice naming who did it, and a message AutoMod holds for a link says so. ALERTS AND SIRI Settings > Mention alerts > Pause alerts pauses mention and chat alerts for an hour, 8 hours or until tomorrow. Siri and Shortcuts understand "Pause Limerino alerts for an hour" and "Unpause Limerino alerts". LANGUAGES Limerino now comes in German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian and Chinese (Traditional). It follows your iPhone's language, or the one you choose in the Settings app under Apps > Limerino > Language. iPAD AND iPHONE DUO On iPad, or iPhone Duo opened like a book, Add to multi-view in the channel list puts up to four live channels beside chat in a wide window, and up to four can play at once, as many as the device has memory for. Each tile starts muted, and Watch here moves the sound and chat to it. iPad mini, iPad Air and 11-inch iPads show the channel list in portrait. On iPhone Duo half open, a soft glow from the stream fills the space beside the picture. SETTINGS AND ACCESSIBILITY Settings groups its screens under Chat look, Chat behavior and Account & data, and search finds more. With Show Borders on, buttons keep their shape with a thin outline or underline. At the largest text sizes the player bar, user cards, Browse and Settings rearrange to fit. ALSO Block also blocks on Twitch, and Unblock reverses both. Unblocking someone or removing a clip offers Undo for a few seconds, and Sign out asks first. Your clips includes clips you made on twitch.tv. From November 1 the Home Screen icon is the purple speech bubble again. iOS tells you once when it changes.
