After releasing a public beta, the official Twitch app is now currently available on Apple TV. Previously, the Twitch app was available for consoles, smartphones, as well as Android TV boxes. Twitch was still available on Apple TV through third-party apps, but the new app adds a more convent and streamlined way for Apple TV users to access Twitch.
The new app is similar to Twitch apps for other platforms, and the app is not only focused on gaming. The new Apple TV app has the ability to live stream sports, as well as join chats and view video clips. The Twitch app also broadcasts Thursday Night Football. Overall the new app will increase the number of users the Twitch app is able to reach, as Apple TV is a vastly popular platform.
