Do I need a strong internet connection to live stream a game?
You need a good internet connection to live stream a game. A quality video stream will require adequate LTE data coverage or a WiFi connection.
How much will live streaming video drain my smartphone battery?
Streaming is a battery intensive operation for any phone. Your battery is going to drain. We recommend fully charging your phone prior to live streaming, and if possible, plugging your phone into an external battery.
Can I score games while streaming video?
You cannot score and live stream simultaneously from one device. You will need to have a second device on-hand to score the game. If you are scoring a baseball, softball or basketball game, viewers will see the GameStream scoreboard with the live video feed.
What happens if I leave the app while streaming?
If you background the app (take a phone call, answer a text, etc) then the stream will pause for all viewers. Viewers will receive a message saying that the stream is paused. Once you return to the app you will be able to resume streaming.
What happens if I lose my cellular/WiFi connection while streaming a game?
If you lose your connection while streaming, the stream will pause for viewers. They will get a message saying that the stream has been paused. You will be able to resume streaming once you have a strong enough connection.
What is the best way to stream a game?
We recommend that you are connected to the internet via LTE if you are using cellular, or a stable WiFi connection. We also recommend to put your phone in 'Do Not Disturb, you can learn how to do that here.
Can I provide score updates to the Live Video scoreboard for sports other than Baseball, Softball, and Basketball?
Yes, for soccer, lacrosse, field hockey, and ice hockey you can provide score updates to the scoreboard on the Live Video stream. In the Live Game Chat you can also give players credit for goals and shots and keep a running game clock to track how much time is left. Check out this article on How To Post Score Updates.
