Facebook brings its live broadcasts to Android
Little by little, the social network Facebook continues to develop the star content of the moment: the videos s. And it seems that they are thinking very well about bringing to everyone the possibility of making retransmissions, or at least, they want to do it slowly and with good handwriting Now, after a month available to users of the iOS platform, it begins to launch for owners of a Android terminal, although in a staggered manner by country.Something that will significantly multiply content of this type through the walls of the social network.
This is the possibility of broadcast live and direct from the mobile phone That is, broadcast video and sound from anywhere and at any time so that friends on this social network can instantly know what's happeningA content that goes a step beyond the videos that are currently being shared, and that is more tempting thanks to the concept of immediacy and the possible direct interaction with the issuer
Thus, the users of Android, just as those of iOS have been doing for some time , they will be able to broadcast live, without having to be public figures with extensive lists of friends on Facebook , as was the case up to now.Anyone can broadcast live to give their opinion, show any last minute or simply share live and live a moment of their life.
To do this, all you have to do is access the application, and click on the upper part of the section Latest news , in What's happening? Here will appear the new button for Live videos or broadcasts, with which you can give a short description to the video, choose its impact or privacy, and start broadcasting. During the live video or direct, the user will have on screen a reflection of what captures the camera but, in addition, you can see how many viewers have joined the broadcast, as well as the list of friends who they are watching it liveThere is also a space for the comments that the viewers send, and that allow a live interaction, being able to answer their questions or know the acceptance that said broadcast is having .
Once finished, the stream is saved as a normal video on the user's wall. This means it can be played at any time and place, to see all the moments of the broadcast again, but without it being live. A video that the user can keep or delete at will.
Now, Facebook has only announced the launch of broadcasts for Android in United States for the next few weeks. This means that, in the case of Spain, there is still no date to use this function. Thus, the most likely thing is that we will still have to wait several weeks or even months before being able to broadcast live and direct from a mobile Android, or even from a iPhone, where this function is not yet active in our country.
