Streamlabs: Live Streaming

The app does not function correctly when paired with YouTube. When I try to start a live video, it doesn't seem to connect with my youtube account. Even when the program is recording, it does not show a live feed, it just says up coming up on YouTube. it was working a lot better in the beginning. But now just a lot of trouble and a hassle, if I want to do giveaway, there are ways for my community.

Streamlabs was always buggy. You'd have to set everything up twice for it to register, overlays would show on stream as black boxes, etc. These were acceptable because it was a free app that they were supposedly working on. Instead of fixing these known issues they decided to strip functionality unless you buy a subscription to get back to the broken app that used to be free. Worse than that even, when you buy the subscription the new version of the app has more bugs than before they instituted the forced pay system. While I can gratefully accept a free app that has known problems, I can't stomach paying hundreds of dollars for a worse version of the same app. Especially knowing that Streamlabs has no intention of giving us a better experience. They only plan to charge more money for it. I am currently exploring other streaming options. I'm off of Streamlabs on my PC as well due to their decisions with the mobile app. Edit to respond to Streamlabs: It's the alerts and overlays that cause me the most problems. For example, if I put an alertbox on my stream on your mobile app and then go live the alertbox shows up as a black box in the middle of the screen for my viewers. The alerts don't show in there, it's just a black box in the middle of the stream. If I go back into the Editor and back to the stream it goes away, sometimes. The last time I tried to use your app I went back and forth three times and the box still wouldn't go away. It has nothing to do with the camera source, though that is another problem. Sometimes with the new version it's impossible to get the camera source to go fullscreen. Another problem is that custom url overlays don't work anymore. Honestly, there are too many problems to list in this format, and trying to contact StreamLabs directly doesn't go anywhere.

It's a little misleading, but I'm going to talk about the great qualities first Well for starters, it's smooth, and its easy to use. Chat overlay is in a not annoying spot, and you can turn it on and off. Although, it is very misleading, you cant actually do a screen record, if you choose normal camera. That's about it tho, but overall I probably wouldn't recommend it

When it works, it works great. That is, rarely. You can only do one livestream before it won't let you do it again, as it will take forever to load unless you clear the storage. If you do ANY kind of livestream that involves the camera, expect severe lag and out-of-sync audio. If you change the orientation of the phone while it casts your screen, your app will break and you have to, once again, clear the storage. Clearly this app was meant for PC while the app was an afterthought. Buggy ahh app.

Terrible mobile app. Customize your logo they say, but then they're going to put the logo bottom right of the screen where you can't see it, and if you try to scroll to the side to position where you can see it all, that doesn't work either. Also the login section is glitchy AF, I have to log in like four times. Also you'll get to a point where the app glitches and you have to close out and start ALL OVER AGAIN including logging in. I've had it for three days and it's made me so mad. Back twitch
