Good morning we had an Instagram update, and it is that although they have not wanted to announce it with great fanfare, we are already here to counter it. We had been commenting weeks ago that Instagram possibly followed in the footsteps of its owner, Facebook, and launch a configuration that allows us to broadcast live video through the same application. This on Facebook has had several uses, in fact you can even watch football illegally through these videos ... However, the intention of Instagram will be more idle, surely, we will tell you what the new Instagram function consists of .
First came the Stories function, a clear plagiarism to Snapchat with certain differences. Shortly after came the integration of Boomerang within Instagram, a clear example of what many of us already thought, it was not necessary to launch another application like Boomerang, the system could have been included in the Instagram app from the beginning. And now comes "Live", the last functionality of the Stories section, and that is that to use it we will only have to access the Stories section, sliding to the left or clicking on the icon of our profile at the top left. Once inside, we will see at the bottom the three functions, "Live", "Normal" and "Boomerang".
Of course, it will be very easy for your followers to miss your stories live, that is, they will receive a notification that you are broadcasting it, but it will not be able to be seen later, as if it is allowed on Facebook. We imagine that this new functionality will be used by many "celebrities" to interact a little with their followers.. While we watch a live we can leave "Like" or comment on the broadcast in real time, while the one who broadcasts will be able to see the total number of followers who are watching the streaming. And this is all for now, it's time to broadcast live.
"The application is no longer available in the App Store"?
(The end, I mean)
