Twitch Launches a Redesigned Mobile App to Support Mobile Consumption and New Features
Twitch rolled out a redesigned mobile app. It features a Home tab centered around its TikTok-like Discovery Feed, where users can scroll vertically to watch previews of live streams and short-form videos. Above the feed, there's a Stories shelf and a Followed Channels section.
Other notable updates include a Browse tab for searching specific streamers and content, an Activity tab compiling notifications and messages, and a Create tab that enables users to go live, share Stories, and manage their channel.
Why It Matters: Twitch is supporting the evolution of its users, who are consuming more content on mobile devices and in shorter sessions. The redesign also optimizes the experience for its latest features, such as the Discovery Feed and Stories, which are suited for full-screen, mobile viewing.
