Install

1. Scim through this guide on how to enable third party app istallations
2. Go to the latest release page and download the .apk file of the mod. It periodically checks for new releases so you only have to download it once from there.

Build it yourself

This patch is meant to be applied to version 11.7.0 of the official twitch app Make sure you use this version before you create an issue!

Easy way: Docker

Prerequisites:

Docker

How to:

1. Clone this repo

2. Get the Twitch App's apk files (e.g from here, or here)

   Please make sure you get it from a non-shady source!

   If you have downloaded a single .apk file, name it twitch.apk

   If you have downloaded a bundle of .apk files put them in a .zip archive and name it twitch.zip

   Note: Apkmirror publishes bundles as .apkm files, those are just zip files, so rename them to twitch.zip

3. Run the builder:

   docker run --rm -ti \
      -v path/to/twitch.apk:/usr/build/twitch.apk \
      -v /path/to/dist:/usr/build/dist \
      -v path/to/patches:/usr/build/patches \
      -v /path/to/mod:/usr/build/mod \
      -v /path/to/.all-contributorsrc:/usr/build/.all-contributorsrc \
      ghcr.io/bttv-android/builder
   

   If you are in the same directory as the apk file you can copy and paste:

   docker run --rm -ti \
      -v $(pwd)/twitch.apk:/usr/build/twitch.apk \
      -v $(pwd)/dist:/usr/build/dist \
      -v $(pwd)/patches:/usr/build/patches \
      -v $(pwd)/mod:/usr/build/mod \
      -v $(pwd)/.all-contributorsrc:/usr/build/.all-contributorsrc \
      ghcr.io/bttv-android/builder
   

4. The dist directory will contain the patched apk file!

5. Transfer to device and install apk

6. Remove the builder again: docker rmi ghcr.io/bttv-android/builder

If you get stuck at any point, just remove the disass dir and try again

0. Download and install prerequisites
1. Get the Twitch App's apk files (e.g from here), drop them zipped in this directory and call it "twitch.zip"

   Please make sure you get it from a non-shady source! If you have adb installed follow this guide (Method 3)
