However, fans won’t be able to livestream their own games. As of now, users can only watch other people’s livestreams. It’s a huge limitation because twitch is popular for its livestream feature. And devs might add this feature through some update/patch in the coming months.

Unfortunately, that’s not the only limitation of this app. Users won’t be able to watch the chat section while watching their favorite stream either. But users can look at chat on their phone by scanning the QR code.

The Twitch app will support handheld mode, TV mode, and Tabletop mode, which means users can also watch their favorite stream on TV. And the app size is 31 MB.

The entire UI of the app looks pretty and seems simple to use, and it features recommendations as well.
