@TheRealAppy Or other recourse: Sideload S0undTV?
Once up and running, I found it was way more usable and feature rich than even v9.
ILY twitch, but v10 is truly wretched...

All patience to Twitch while they fix this, I've moved on to s0undtv. Community written. Standalone apk is on github. Very feature rich except I think no sending chat (not sure actually, I still use Twitch mobile for that).

And reesej, if anyone likes the split chat like I do, it's resizeable. Def enough features it takes getting used to. Shiny though!
ily twitch.

While we wait for something official from the hard working folks at twitch, discovered something else for all the good noodles out there... S0undTV.

I opened a support ticket also.
1) Can't easily get to non-live content.
2) Where's my list of followed channels?
3) Latency on live video is awful. Old app used to be the only way to watch that was near instantaneous. Now it often starts 5-7 seconds behind and gets progressively worse. Awful experience trying to interact with live streams.
4) Not all chat activity shows in chat.
5) No more auto forwarding on raids. Need to wait forever for the option to even come up, and still have to click a few buttons first. Miss the spontaneity of raids.
6) Tries to make sure chat names are visible on dark background, but it's not tuned properly. Practically black names don't appear in chat, and bright names get turned white?
7) No chat replay on VODs anymore? Who is my streamer talking to? What's happening?Just to name a few. Agree with sentiment that there's a perverse attention to directing to live content only, which just feels wrong when it completely cuts us off from our subscribed, offline content.
I'd give anything to get the old version back. Total downgrade.

Since the big Fire TV update, my 4k stick screen saver kicks in while watching streams. Only fix is to reboot the fire stick to enjoy one session without interruption, but then it happens again after switching.

@baskov1987 I appreciate your trying to look for the positive. I try to do the same.
This isn't one of those times though. None of the changes in v10 were for the better. Every change actively made it worse, even going so far as adding barriers to getting to your followed channels for VODs, which is awful for creators.
Over a year running and I'm still perfectly happy using a community alternative to the official app for TV viewing instead...
