Bug Report
Re: Twitch iOS App v16.9
A bug is frequently encountered after latest update; when, opening emotes in chat window and rotating screen from portrait to landscape etc.
Bug causes app to freeze stream momentarily and almost crash, as app struggles to cache stream and rescale size of windows of stream and chat at same time, and both windows will also overlap, if screen is rotated back to upright position.

Was coming to report the same bug. Also freezes when closing keyboard for just chat and stream/vod.

Short-Term Workaround:
»Log out and exit app.
»Completely delete Twitch iOS app from iPhone.
»Download Twitch app again via iTunes AppStore.
»Open Twitch app and Sign-in again.Following the above steps resets certain functions the app has previously cached back to default and welcomes you back as new sign-in etc.
In my case, it has temporarily resolved the above issue, due to caching limits of animated emotes in chat being reset.
It becomes obvious when app has reached caching limits, as certain animated emotes will stop animating, while others still animate in chat, and above issue will occur again whenever you change orientation of app with emotes selection open under chat.
If you have any doubts or still encounter problems; contact support for further assistance.
