What's new on TikTok in October 2022: multi-participant livestreams

[Dimaeiya333]

Over the past few months, the feature has been tested time and time again, however, only now TikTok users have the option to invite up to five guests to their live stream and increase the interaction of the broadcasts. Guests have their own guest video boxes that are clearly identifiable to viewers .

Guest livestreams were introduced to TikTok in July 2021, when you could only add one guest in split-screen mode. The update is an opportunity for more live conversations, live TV sessions, and more, while also allowing brands to showcase products . Overall, it makes it much easier to collaborate with influencers on the platform.

There is a catch, though. Currently, only accounts with over 1,000 followers can go live on TikTok, while only accounts with over 5,000 followers can invite guests.
