Good to know

  • Live is on the strip only before you record a clip. Once you have recorded something, the strip goes away.
  • The Go Live screen also has an Overlay section. Leave it on None to stream your plain camera. With Overlay on None, the stream starts on your front camera. Tap the flip camera button next to Share to switch between front and back. That button is only there when Overlay is None.
  • The number next to the eye icon is how many people have your live open. It counts the app and the web page, and it includes you.
  • Your live link starts with pamojah.com/live/. It opens in a web browser, so people without the app can watch. See Watching a live stream.
  • If you switch to another app during a stream, your camera stops until you come back. If your phone stays disconnected for a while, the stream ends on its own.
  • When you end a live, viewers are told it has ended. Your screen shows how long you streamed. Tap Close to return to the camera. The strip is back on Post.
  • Pamojah can end a stream as a moderation step. Your screen then reads "Live ended".
  • You cannot go live while your account is paused, scheduled for deletion or suspended. The screen reads "Couldn't go live" and gives the reason.
