App is a buggy garbage mess

Emotes don’t load, crashes whenever I go to full screen, chat box keeps vanishing, new ui is garbage compared to old one. The mobile app truly makes trying to chat and watch anyone absolutely insufferable, fix it.

It’s good

Extremely buggy

The app was fine for a while. But there was an update which made it the buggiest interface I have ever interacted with in my life. It genuinely baffles me that a multi billion dollar company has audited this and made this available to the public. I’m just in complete disbelief. It has crashed over 12 times in the last ten minutes of trying to watch a stream, even though every other app on my phone works perfectly fine (e.g. YouTube). Please make your product useable.

App crashing

On iPhone I can’t change it to landscape mode cause it keeps freezing and crashing please fix this and then I will make sure this app gets a better rating

Bug with new update

There’s a new bug that makes twitch unusable for mobile. When you click on any stream it know automatically freezes the stream and your screen not allowing you to click any buttons forcing you to swipe out the app. You cannot watch on mobile. Needs fixing!

Buggy

Freezes when I open a stream. Sound works even for a couple seconds after closing the app.. no buttons work while watching frozen stream. iPhone XR, since last update

App crashing

Open up a stream turn it landscape app freezes and dies and I have to restart funnily if I get an ad and go landscape it works very cool app thanks again Jeff

Great for lives

And love it

Bad

It is so unpredictable

app crashing

app keeps crashing whenever i open a stream, ive done lots of fixes to my phone but the app is still messed up

New update

Totally stopped me watching channels screen freezes the whole app freezes

awful UI

I'm not usual one to leave negative reviews but after over a month of constant updates that haven't actually fixed anything but instead made this app worse, I felt the need to.
The user interface on twitch mobile has been horrendous to the point where it's making me not want to use twitch at all most of the time unless I have my laptop with me.
To mention a few repeating issues: the background playback never works anymore and it pauses my streams whenever I lock my phone, I can never type in chats and none of the other chatters' messages load, on the rare occasion they do load if I try to reply to someone it does this weird thing where it scrolls back in chat so I can't actually see what I'm replying to. The channel point redemptions are super bugged visually and take ages to actually load. No ability to sort through emotes by looking up the streamer name or emote prefix. And that's just to mention a few of the most frustrating issues. Please do something to actually fix this app instead of sending out almost daily updates that are frankly useless as they are just making it worse. I used to love twitch and was mainly a mobile user for years, but this is a joke.

Good

Heaps good

Cant listen to twitch on iPhone lock screen

When I lock my phone twitch stops working. It’s never been like this. How can this be resolved?

They made Twitch (even) worse (again)

The app displays only a few of the categories you follow, tapping a stream sometimes opens the category instead of the stream, and scrolling down sometimes jumps back to the top of the page. I can’t tell the app I’m not interested in certain categories from the Live page anymore, ads restart if I lose connection to streams, and that Live page is STILL the default when I open the app.
