O Instagram won from this Monday (21) the possibility of transmitting live videos made with your smartphone. In addition, the social network has also launched the exchange of text messages or images that disappear after viewing, similar to Snapchat called I.
Live videos will be made on Instagram Stories, the section of public photos and videos that disappear at 24 hours. You can talk to your followers in real time at any time. After the transmission, the video will disappear. Of course, the live videos on Instagram Stories help the user to connect immediately with their friends and followers.
To make a live broadcast is easy: the user simply slides in the publications feed to open the camera, touch the button "Start live video" and share for up to an hour at most. Instagram reports that more than 100 million people use Stories every day.
For the user to know, when someone who follows is in a broadcast, just look at the word 'Live'(or Ao Vivo, in Portuguese) in your profile photo on the Instagram Stories bar. Each time the user initiates a live broadcast, their followers will be able to receive a notification on their smartphone to follow their broadcast.
Already I- it will work for both individual contacts and groups of friends. Even in a public or private account, the user can send ephemeral messages only to people who follow him. It also allows users to send photos and videos that may disappear moments after viewing by the recipient.
To use this feature, simply swipe right and access the camera to take a picture or make a video, then tap the Direct arrow to send it privately and with some fun effects.
Now to open your inbox, touch the new paper airplane icon at the top left of your feed, or swipe left, the user will see photos or videos in a bar at the top, and touch the ones with blue rings to See what your friends have sent.
Instagram live videos make an important difference compared to Facebook live videos, which turn into regular videos and can be accessed after the real-time interaction ends. Instagram news started to be available worldwide starting this Monday on the platforms Android e iOS.
