YouTube is letting more people live-stream from their mobile

YouTube is making it easier for users to start live-streaming on mobile devices. According to a report from Android Police, the video site is dropping a requirement that means users have to have more than 1,000 subscribers before they “Go Live” via a phone or tablet. The company previously dropped this subscriber-count requirement down to 1,000 from 10,000 in April. 

The change hasn’t yet been confirmed by YouTube or Google and doesn’t appear to be showing up for everyone, but will likely roll out over the coming days. It’s important to note also that this doesn’t meant just anyone can start live-streaming from a mobile device — you’ll still need to have a verified channel and no live stream restrictions in the last 90 days to qualify.
