Stream Randomly Crashes App
Re: Twitch iOS App v17.0
I have encountered app completely crashing back to iOS Home Screen multiple times and app needing to be reloaded to continue watching stream after most recent update.
I have also had to previously report via stream that entire screen (not just video) will suddenly freeze while still hearing audio from stream, and when exiting app; audio for stream will continue to play outside of app for how ever long stream was previously buffered by app.
Note: Issue has occurred using an iPhone 8 Plus 256GB (iOS 16.7.2) and not due to low battery power, as iPhone connected via mains power with battery fully charged at 100%.
UPDATE
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 cached by app back to default and welcomes you back as new sign-in etc.
In my case, it has temporarily resolved the issue, and then afterwards the new Twitch app will completely freeze/crash again when simply trying to type in chat.
Just rollback your app, Twitch, and start again, by adding new features one-at-a-time to track how bugs occur.
