TikTok has announced several new LIVE features to expand what users can do with the platform.
Among the new features is LIVE Events, which recently became available in select markets. LIVE Events serves to provide creators with scheduling, management, and promotion capabilities for LIVE videos. For viewers, it allows them to discover streams, in addition to providing notifications and reminders for upcoming LIVEs.
Also coming is Go LIVE Together for two users to, as the name says, go live together. Meanwhile, LIVE Q&A will offer tools for hosts to “more easily select, showcase, and answer questions” during live videos.
Aside from that, Top LIVE will provide For You and Following pages as well as categories like Gaming and Daily Life for LIVE video discovery, while Help for Hosts allows hosts to assign someone to help out with managing the stream through Settings. The assistant will be able to mute and block users.
Other announced features include Picture-in-Picture, Keyword Filters, and a prompt for viewers to “reconsider the impact of their words before posting a potentially unkind or harmful comment”.
TikTok also said that it will bring in a way for LIVE hosts and the person assisting them to temporarily mute viewers and to remove “unkind or harmful comments” in the “coming weeks”.
