YouthStream: Using the Android app

Julia EskinUpdated

YouthStream is on Google Play as "Live Stream Youth Sports", for Android 7 or later. It works like the iPhone app: the same games, links, scoreboards, co-admins and replays.

Sign in

Tap Continue with Google and choose your Google account, or tap Continue with Email and we email you a 6-digit code. There's no Sign in with Apple on Android. If you also use YouthStream on an iPhone, see signing in.

What's different on Android

  • Settings are in the app, under Profile → Settings. There's one: Dim Screen While Live (see settings).
  • Quality: Android streams in 720p, adjusting to your connection, and saves a 1080p copy on your phone. It always uses a secure connection.
  • Zoom: tap 1X, 2X or 3X on the camera screen. Focus is automatic.
  • The copy on your phone: after you stop streaming, a Saving recording… notification shows while YouthStream finishes the video, even if you leave the app. You'll find it in your gallery in the YouthStream folder, or in Movies → YouthStream in a file manager.
  • Subscriptions go through Google Play, which bills your Google account. You cancel in the Google Play app (see plans, cancelling and refunds).

Invite links from your team open the app on Android too.
