Twitch

Twitch is a live streaming platform that focuses on videogame streaming where people play games and provide real-time video commentary — all while fans and supporters watch.

The app also broadcasts Esports competitions, as well as other events in relation to music, sports, podcasts, cooking shows and IRL (in real life) streams.

It is built around creating and developing communities while being a source of live entertainment allowing users to find, follow and nerd out about their preferred communities/ individual channels on Twitch.

It’s designed in a simple and easy-to-use manner with the aim of encouraging users to start their own channels.

Twitch enables users to instantly create an account, go live directly from the app and bring people together around whatever they’re passionate about.

A real-time interactive chat experience makes it a popular social platform.
