To activate Twitch on your Mobile, First, download and open the Twitch app on your device and Sign In. The app will display a unique activation code, often a 6-digit code.
Using Twitch on your mobile device is straightforward, as the experience is designed specifically for smartphones and tablets. Here’s a breakdown of how it works:
Watching Streams
- Download the App: Get the official Twitch app from the Apple App Store (for iOS) or Google Play Store (for Android).
- Log In or Sign Up: You can log in with an existing account or create a new one directly in the app. Having an account allows you to follow channels, participate in chat, and get notifications when your favorite streamers go live.
- Browse Content: The app’s interface is designed for mobile use. You’ll see a homepage with a “Live” feed that shows you streams from different categories. You can also swipe right to access a “Following” tab, which shows channels you follow that are currently live, or swipe left for a “Clips” feed.
- Interact: While watching a stream, you can engage with the streamer and other viewers in the real-time chat. You can also “Cheer” with Bits or subscribe to a channel to show your support.
Streaming from Mobile
The Twitch mobile app also allows you to stream directly from your phone or tablet. This is a great way to broadcast “in real life” (IRL) content or mobile games.
- Go Live: In the app, you’ll find a “Create” button (often a “+” icon) in the center of the bottom navigation.
- Choose Your Stream Type: You’ll be given options like “Stream Games” (to broadcast what’s on your screen) or “Stream IRL” (to use your phone’s camera).
- Set Up Your Stream: Before you go live, you can set your stream’s title, category, and other details. The app will also prompt you for microphone and camera permissions.
- Start Broadcasting: Once everything is set, you can start your broadcast. You can manage your stream and interact with your chat from the stream manager overlay. It’s a good idea to enable “Do Not Disturb” mode to prevent notifications from appearing on your stream.

Twitch — Activate on TV using your mobile (Step-by-Step)
Nice — here’s a short, foolproof guide to unlock Twitch on a Smart TV / streaming device by using your phone.
1) On the TV / streaming device
Install/open the Twitch app (Roku / Fire TV / Apple TV / Samsung/LG smart TV / Android TV / console).
Select Sign In or Activate inside the app.
The TV will show an activation code (a short alphanumeric code) and usually a prompt like “Go to twitch.tv/activate” (or a QR code). Keep that screen visible.
2) On your mobile phone (quick method)
Open your phone browser (Chrome / Safari) and go to:
https://twitch.tv/activate.Or scan the QR code on the TV screen (if shown) — it usually opens the same activation page.
Sign in with the Twitch account you want connected to the TV.
Enter the activation code from the TV and tap Activate / Submit.
The TV app should automatically refresh and log in. Enjoy Twitch on the big screen.
3) Alternate: Use the Twitch mobile app
Install and sign in to the Twitch app on your phone.
If your TV shows a QR code, open the Twitch app and use your phone camera (or a QR scanner) to open the activation URL — then follow the on-screen sign-in and code entry.
Or use the browser method above — it’s fastest.
