Helpful Tips for Live Streaming

App Permissions

When you install the Broadcaster App, ensure you allow access to your device's camera and microphone. Without these permissions, the app will not function correctly for live streaming.

Internet Connection

If your Wi-Fi is slow, switch to 4G mobile data. A stable connection is essential for smooth streaming. Alternatively, reduce the resolution to 720p and 24 FPS using the settings on the home screen.

Muting the Live Stream

To mute audio during the stream, tap the Microphone icon on the bottom right of the screen in the Broadcaster App.
