Last week, Instagram rolled out another great feature: Go Live With A Friend. This new option enables you to broadcast in collaboration with someone else, which opens up a whole new world for Instagram Live videos. Going Live with a friend is simple. First, you open the camera on the upper left hand side of your Instagram home screen and select the Live option, as you normally would. Tap the two happy faces icon on the bottom right and tap “Add” to invite anyone who’s currently watching your Live Story. Once they join, the screen is split into two, and your guest will pop up right below you on the video feed. You can swap one guest with another at any time during your broadcast, or they can see themselves out on their own. Like with any other Live Story you can share your Live with a friend video to your Story when your broadcast has ended, or you can choose to discard it and have it only exist in the moment.

Benefits to Going Live With A Friend

Last, but not least, if you’re shy, teaming up with someone for a live story might provide an easier way into the live video creatio process.
