I've just had an update for the iOS tablet app today and it has made Twitch utterly unusable.
The handy easy to use list where I could quickly see who was streaming and a list of suggested live channels I do not follow yet is gone, and now my only option is to laboriously scroll through all the streams with large thumbnails that only shows maybe 6 at a time on the page.
The Live tab is even more useless as it only shows one single stream at a time, and I can't even control which one.
The Browse section is equally useless. The extremely large thumbnails for the different categories make it very awkward to find things I'm looking for because, again, it limits things to at most 6 items on screen at a time, which is far too few.
I am using a tablet with a large screen for a reason. I want more information on it, not less.
Please revert all these pointless changes. If I want TikTok, I will go to TikTok. I go to Twitch to watch Twitch. The previous layout was more than good enough. If Twitch does not return to a useable format soon I will be forced to look for alternatives.

I agree. This is an atrocious update that needs to be reverted. When I go to twitch I don't want to have some random streamer forced into my face on autoplay. I want to see the people I follow first and foremost.
If I wanted to see TikTok I would open TikTok. Twitch is not TikTok and should not try to be. This is exactly the same reason I never use the dedicated "shorts" pages on YouTube - it gives me no control over what videos I watch but just randomly forces something on me. I don't like that. I want the freedom to choose what I watch.

Yes. The handy list of followed and suggested channels was my main way of watching live channels I follow and discovering new channels. Now that it's gone Twitch is much less easy to use, and I will no longer be able to do either as much as before.

Yes! There are lots of claims by copyright trolls who don't actually own the copyright and there is currently no way to address this.

Since a few days the iPad app has started occasionally booting up with the old UI again and oh my god it's such a relief whenever it does. Finally I can properly use the app again.
The recommended channels list as well as the discover page are incredible ways to find new streamers. I can't imagine how it could possibly be an improvement for discoverability to have them gone.
In the new UI I could barely even find the streamers I was already following, let alone anyone new. Please keep this, reverting to the old UI is the best thing that the tablet app could possibly do.
