JAKARTA In March, Twitch tested the latest design of its mobile app. This testing went smoothly so that the live streaming platform will roll out its newest design to all users. Jeremy Forrester, Vice President Community Products, realizes that the majority of Twitch users use computers to stream or watch videos. However, in recent months, the number of Twitch users on mobile phones has increased by up to 50 percent. Seeing this change, Twitch wants to make it easier for users on mobile phones to find content. Therefore, they overhaul the appearance of its mobile app so that its number of active users per month can experience an increase. "This allows streamers to maintain their relationship with their existing communities while finding new audiences through shorter and more frequent interactions," said Forrester via Twitch's official website. When opening the Twitch app with the latest design, all users will see live streaming feeds. This feed displays live recommendations that are personalized from streamers or communities that users like.

If the user shifts the screen to the side in the feed, they will see previews of various streamings. When they want to join or interact in the comments column, users only need to tap on the preview screen. In addition, in the Home tab, users will see a disclosure feed to explore various content, a top left drawer to view the follow-up account that is broadcasting, a clip to view missed live, and a Story to view streamer activities. Forrester added that, "We are releasing an update to allow you to control whether the feed is turned on automatic, disable the feed when it opens by default, and add a mute button directly to the feed." This latest design will be released to all compatible iOS and Android devices. If the user wants to see the update, make sure that the Twitch app has been updated via the App Store or Google Play Store.
