Instagram allows you to send live videos by direct message to your friends
Table of contents:
Instagram is back with a new feature. Of course, it has to do with Instagram Stories, possibly the most used feature of Instagram. Surely you know the live videos. It is an option that allows us to carry out stories through the camera. It allows us to broadcast our followers live, comment, write and even add a follower. Instagram launches a notification message when someone you follow starts a live so we know that person is live.Sometimes it can be a bit annoying. But don't worry, because now it could be much more annoying.
The new feature of live videos consists of being able to send through a live message, the video that you are making liveIn this way, the one who is doing the live can notify in a more personalized way. For example, sending a message saying, ”˜”˜Hi! I've started a live video and I'm going to talk about rockets, join me!”™”™. How could it be otherwise, the user receiving the message can write and join the live from a button in the chat. The user who is doing the live video can see the message without leaving. A small banner will appear at the top with the message.
On the other hand, we should note that viewers of live videos can also share the video with their contacts to join.
How to share live videos with your followers
First, you'll need to start a live on Instagram. Then click on the arrow button at the bottom and the profiles menu will appear. Select the contacts you want to send the video to and customize the message. If a user joins through the message you sent, they will be highlighted in the message once they joined.
If we are the ones who are watching the live video, and we want to share it with our friends through direct message, we also have to carry out the same steps. That is, find the arrow at the bottom and select the contact we want to share. We can add the personalized message and that's it. While sharing a live video, neither option makes you snap out of it.That is, you continue live even if the contact list appears.
