Check your eligibility

Live video on X requires a verified or established account depending on current platform policy. Confirm you can access the live option before planning a broadcast.

Go live from the app

Open the compose box, tap the live icon, add a title and optional location, then start. Keep the phone steady and monitor comments to interact in real time.

Go live with higher quality using a stream key

For a polished broadcast, use an encoder or VRLIVE to push a professional stream to X via RTMP. This unlocks better overlays, multiple cameras, and an AI avatar host.
