Twitch is a gaming platform where you can find videos related to games. Although Twitch is similar to YouTube, the videos are limited to gaming and gaming-related stuff. The Twitch app can be used in two ways. You can watch all the gameplay videos, or you can upload your gameplay videos. Twitch is most often used by gamers to chat with their fellow gamers. Besides, the users can enjoy watching the gamers playing single or multiplayer games. With the Twitch app on your Chromecast with Google TV, you can do both. The Twitch app is available on the Google Play Store for Android smartphones, tablets, Android TVs, and Android TV Boxes.
You can watch all the Twitch gameplay videos for free with ads. To get ad-free streaming, you have to buy a subscription which starts at $4.99 per month. Additional benefits like Emotes, Customized Badges, Exclusive Chatrooms, and Special Competitions are available with the subscription.
