Revert the twitch app update for xbox series
Change the app back to how it use to be on xbox series. It updated and it's horrible. Had to relog in. You have to scan a qr code to chat which is ridiculous. The categories are randomly scattered and in no order which you can't change. Categories and streams are surround by a blinding white box now and everything seems jumbled together. I swear a room full of 3 year Olds designed this new layout. NOTHING about it is better.

I agree with all the feedback users have provided here as well as the daily complaints posted on Twitter. The latest update pushed to console users was a complete step in the wrong direction and has ruined your users, (ie. a source of your companies revenue) experience. Please revert the update.

You’re making the app for us not for you. And we are all telling you it is **** so you juste revert it right ? How is it possible to develop such a **** without testing it and realizing it sucks ?? Some persons should be fired…

The whole app from top to bottom should just be reverted back. This version while it looks cleaner runs TERRIBLE none of the icons work half the time, the going through of vods just got 6 times harder, you can't go to followed channels easily, and no chat I don't think ANYONE asked for that. Honestly whoever was on the team to make it should all be let go. They did a miserable job and just messed the app up to uselessness almost. I personally don't see the points to ANY of the changes.

Yes, you really need to revert back to the previous version, this is the one on the Nintendo Switch. I can understand how the app on the switch can be downgraded with less features and not run optimally, but the Xbox version was great before updating to the current version. We can no longer chat within the app (have to use a mobile device), the stream settings no longer work (at least for me) can't switch between different resolutions / stream quality, the streams no longer play in the background when browsing (helps show whats live versus what the thumbnail shows), when joining streams that I follow I'll get message prompts about it being a mature stream and then it will take me to another screen where I have to click on another thing to watch the stream (the service should already know that I know and have acknowledged this) and I've seen others complain about how the categories and general live stream browsing is broken and nothing is sorted right. I will say that I like the one feature of when you're in a stream now, you can see a running "live" timer, but other than that this update should be reverted ASAP

Please let me continue watching VODS on the Xbox twitch app. I’m a twitch turbo subscriber so that I can enjoy vods whenever I want and now the Xbox app doesn’t have continue watching where I left off. Please fix this so that I can enjoy vods again. And let us choose vods more than 14 days old please.

This is pathetic. How in the world was this ever signed off on. Only thing that makes sense is Amazon wants to pull away from apps on consoles for when they launch their web streaming only gaming platform.

The new app is a downgrade in every way and I cannot even use the app anymore because I am not able to type in chat, not able to see chat in VODs and not able to continue watching VODs as well. This has to be the worst update for any app I've ever seen, if the goal is to kill the app on console then that is a success, congratulations. Please revert the app or update it to fix all these issues, I use my Xbox Series S to watch twitch all the time and now it is ruined.

Awful update. The communal experience of watching Twitch with chat is the only way I use it. No point whatsoever in me ever using the Xbox app again unless chat returns. What on earth were you thinking here?

The Newest Version of the Xbox app [Feb 1 2023] requires me to use my phone only to use chat, burning up my battery and adding to my wifi usage. I use my Xbox for all my Streaming services and I used to be able to type or use emotes (using my keyboard or using the controller) in chat. I shouldn't need 2 devices to use Twitch for Xbox.
