Facebook Live's latest feature involves two-person live broadcasting; available in the US

Facebook Live video has slowly but surely been making waves in the online world and is now available for all Android and iOS users in India. Now one of the features that was announced by CEO Mark Zuckerberg at the VidCon 2016 conference in June has gone live to verified users in the US. The Facebook Live feature in question is two-person live broadcasts. The two-person live broadcast feature will be available to iOS users, in the US, who have a verified page and have the Facebook Mentions iOS app as well. The two-person broadcast requires that both the people have verified pages or accounts for this feature to work. The feature will start rolling out to non-verified users in the US in September. By October or November, it will hit brands across the world. According to a Facebook spokesperson quoted by The Next Web , “We are now starting to roll out this new capability, starting with a small number of public figures and Pages. In the coming months, we will continue to make this more broadly available to people, public figures, and Pages using Facebook Live. We believe this will make broadcasts more fun and interactive and open up new possibilities for Live.” The other two features announced were MSQRD integration - which lets users add on live mask filters on their faces during a Facebook Live session. Other feature is scheduling live broadcasts, which lets you pre-announce your Facebook live sessions. This notification is sent to your friends who after clicking and going to your page will enter a sort of virtual waiting room if you haven’t gone live already. This feature is useful for those who want a minimum audience number before they can go live.
