If you’re a fan of Twitch and you own a Roku device, you might have noticed that there is no official app for Twitch on Roku. However, there are workarounds that will allow you to watch Twitch on your Roku stick.
First, let’s talk about the options that are available. If you go to search channels on your Roku device and search for Twitch, you will see three options: Twitch 0, Twitch, and Twitch Babes and Fails Gaming. Unfortunately, none of these options are the official Twitch app.
One reason why there is no official Twitch app on Roku devices is because Amazon, Twitch’s parent company, is a competing device to Roku. To watch Twitch on Roku, you will need to use third-party apps.
One workaround is to use Twitch 0 or Twitch. Twitch 0 is a free unofficial video player for Twitch streaming services. However, the downside is that it has several annoying ads that last anywhere from 10 to 15 seconds each time.
On the other hand, Twitch (the regular version) is a paid app that costs 99 cents. The advantage of this app is that there are no ads, and you can log in to your Twitch account and have all your favorite streamers on one page.
While neither of these apps is as good as the official Twitch app, they are comparable. The downside is that you won’t have all your favorite streamers displayed on the side like traditional apps. However, you can still access them by going down to the “Follow” section.
To use either app, you will need to link your account with your Twitch account by activating a code and going to a website. Once you do that, you’ll be able to access Twitch on your Roku device.
Just keep in mind that while these apps are a workaround, they are not officially supported by Twitch. But, if you really want to watch Twitch on your Roku device, these options are the best available.
