Announcements
It would be such an amazing experience for Android users to be able to see comments made with /announce. This feature was added 2 years ago and it is kind of wild. As of today, August 2, 2024, Android has a 71.63% Global Market Share: StatCounter.com (https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/mobile/worldwide/#yearly-2009-2023). So many content creators use /announce or /pin, neither which can be seen on Android devices, to advertise, give trigger warnings, or other important information the viewer may need to see.
For two years, you have neglected fixing this issue despite the many times it has been brought up on social media. Two years is a ridiculous amount of time to "test a feature on iOS". Dan Clancy said in the Open Letter underneath the section titled Improving the Twitch Mobile Experience on March 6, 2024, "many of our mod tools have been available on desktop only, a real limitation to keeping your communities safe. Our mod tools should be flexible, easy to use, and move with you."
With the feature implemented today (mobile redesign adding a TikTok-like interface), it has been made clear that Twitch cares more about improving additional ways to gain revenue and not about the user's experience. Please make the two applications work identically to each other. This problem does not exist on other streaming platforms.

As a fellow Android user who moderates for a few Twitch streamers, I second this!
