"Gaming for Twitch" dont trust

I've seen sketchy apps before but this is kinda up there. 

I wasn't aware twitch was pulled from Roku so I went to look and at first I thought it was legit cause it was using Twitch's logo. It's a third party unofficial app with no license, already starting off bad. Twitch is free so asking for payment for a premium on streaming time is wild to me. Lastly the in app "review" selection. You have two options leave 5 stars automatically on the Roku store or leave a "detalied" review using a QR code that is suspected cause it takes you instead to private Google doc and not the review store. That was the final red flag. Roku, you guys need to check this app. If it ain't a scam, it's still a very suspect set up and doesn't lend any trust.

    In the channel store, the developer is "Kids TV Flix". Can't find any info as Google just treats it as Kids TV search.
