Start a live
You need an account and must be 18 or older. The first time you go live, confirm your age if asked.
From the app
- Tap Go live.
- Add a title (at least 3 characters). You can add a cover photo and a product to sell.
- Check your framing, lighting, camera and microphone in the preview.
- Start: your phone broadcasts directly, no other software needed.
The app needs your camera and microphone: allow them in Settings if asked.
From the web
Open Go live in the menu, then choose:
- Broadcast from the browser: your webcam, in one click;
- Studio mode (OBS): copy the server address and stream key into OBS, then start streaming in OBS. Never share your key.
In studio mode, start the stream within 5 minutes: without any image, the live ends on its own.
Private test
Turn on Private test to check your picture and sound: nobody is notified and nobody can see you. It lasts 15 minutes at most.
Schedule a live
Tap Schedule and pick a time between 15 minutes and 30 days ahead. Your followers can tap Remind me: we notify them 15 minutes before. When it is time, open the scheduled live and tap Go live now.
During the live
- Your followers are notified when your first image arrives.
- You can edit the title (3 to 80 characters), pin products, answer questions and manage your chat: see Sell in a live and Moderate your chat.
- If your connection drops, the broadcast restarts; your viewers wait.
End
Tap End live. You then see the recap: duration, viewers, messages, clicks and contacts on your products. A live started from the app or the browser is not recorded; a live broadcast with OBS has a replay, which you can hide or delete.
