Twitch broadcasting goes mobile: Livestreaming site introduces solution for tablets and smartphones

Twitch is a livestreaming site that enables gamers to share moments from the biggest releases on consoles and PCs. That tech is now heading to mobile.

After crossing more than 10 million installs of its app on iOS and Android, Twitch has revealed its new mobile software-development kit. This tool will enable mobile-gaming companies to add livestreaming and video-capturing features to their apps. It’s available now through the Twitch developer program. Livestreaming is a huge trend in gaming. Twitch has over 45 million monthly unique viewers, and it plays a major role in the promotion of new games. Native Twitch implementation could help mobile games attract new users who discover the game on the site.
