Twitter live video – Twitter’s Periscope gives you access to created live broadcasts, but we’ve got a way you can make Twitter live videos without Periscope.

Twitter is a social media platform where things occurring around the world can be seen, ranging from the latest breaking news, the latest in the entertainment world and many other current live events.

Live videos can actually be created on Twitter, through which one can share what is happening live in any part of the world and these live videos are powered by Periscope. However, you should know that Periscope was not designed by Twitter but rather an app different from Twitter. So if you want the full Periscope deal, you may have to download the app and use it. Nevertheless, you can use Periscope within your Twitter app to do so. 

How live videos can be created on Twitter:

• On your Twitter page, scroll to the left side or you can press the camera icon from the composer
• You will see “live mode” at the bottom, select it
• You will see “optional description”, fill it and when you are done the filling,press “Go live”.
• When you are done with the video, click on the “Stop” button at the upper left of your screen and verify your action inside the menu that pops up.

How to make changes to your live videos:

Changes can actually be effected on the title of your video, thumbnail image and even custom starting point can also be set when you are done with your video, but this can happen for only Twitter for IOS and Android apps. To effect any change you have to follow these simple steps:

• Highlight the broadcast that you would like to effect the change on
• Click on the overflow menu and then select the “Edit Broadcast” option
• After you are done editing, you will be asked to save the changes, then click on “save”

Note: Changes on the broadcast titles can be edited up to three times and it takes about 15 minutes for changes to appear on Twitter and about a minute for them to appear on Periscope.
