How to Go Live on the Day of the Event Using the App

Julia EskinUpdated Oct 20, 2026

Follow these steps to start your live stream on the day of your event using the EventLive app.

Step-by-Step Instructions

About one hour before your scheduled event time, the Go Live button will become active.
Tap the Go Live button.
Tap the red Record button to start streaming.
You will see LIVE NOW at the top left corner when your stream is live and Good Signal button.
If you need to Pause the live stream, tap the red record button and pause the live stream. You can resume the live stream as many times as you need within the event's 24-hour streaming window, which starts at the scheduled event time (not when you first go live). Pausing doesn't restart or extend it.

The app will automatically record your event as you stream. The recording is saved both on EventLive servers and on your device for backup.
The Go Live button becomes active one hour before your scheduled event time.
You can do free test streams before your event by tapping the Start free test button. While a test streams, the status shows TEST.
On iPhone and iPad, the screen dims after 2 minutes without a touch, to save battery and keep the phone cooler. The stream and the recording continue, and Screen dimmed · Still live shows above the pause button. Tap the screen to brighten it.
To keep the screen bright, tap Turn off next to Screen dimmed · Still live (app version 4.3.2 or later). The screen then stays bright on every stream. To turn dimming back on, open the Settings app, tap Apps › EventLive and turn on Dim Screen While Live.
If your iPhone gets too hot, the app shows a smaller camera view and may lower the frame rate so it can keep streaming.

You can share your event link with guests before the event so they are ready to watch.
For best results, use a stable internet connection.
