YouTW is the unofficial Twitch.tv client for Windows

YouTW is not affiliated with Twitch.tv in any way and is made by fans who love Twitch. We wanted a native Windows app so we can watch Twitch on our devices. Since that wasn't available we made our own.

With YouTW for Windows, you can watch live streams of the video games and activities you love, and chat with streamers and other viewers, from anywhere, anytime. From League of Legends, to Overwatch, to live art demos, if it’s worth watching, it’s live on Twitch right now.

+ Live and recorded video of top video games, esports events, art, cooking, music, and more
+ Interactive live shows by Xbox, Sony, Riot Games, Blizzard
+ Completely unique programming like Bob Ross marathons and exclusive video game events
+ Full-featured live chat with one of the largest gaming communities in the world
+ Simple, intuitive navigation that makes it easy to discover the content you care about most
