Gnome Twitch, GTK+3 Twitch app for Linux desktop, now is available as Snap package in beta channel for testing.<\/p>\n

WebUpd8 PPA<\/a> is maintaining the latest Gnome Twitch app for Ubuntu, however, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS is excluded due to old system GTK+3 libraries.<\/p>\n

Now Ubuntu 16.04 and even Ubuntu 14.04 users can easily install the latest Gnome Twitch app via snappy store, though it’s in beta stage at the moment.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

1.<\/b> For those who’ve never installed a snap app, install the snapd<\/code> deamon first in terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T):<\/p>\n

sudo apt install snapd snapd-xdg-open<\/pre>\n
Input your password (no visual feedback while typing due to security reason) when it prompts and hit Enter.<\/i><\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
2.<\/b> Install Gnome Twitch snap app via command:<\/p>\n
sudo snap install --beta gnome-twitch<\/pre>\n
