If users want to stay up to date with these games and channels, they just add a game to their collection for quick access or subscribe to get notifications as soon as they start a live stream. The web also gives recommendations based on chosen videos and channels.
The gaming community is undoubtedly large on YouTube, and realizing this, it put live streams at the front and center of its homepage.
Android users are fortunate because they can record and livestream using the mobile capture feature. It is as simple as tapping "Go Live" on the YouTube gaming app and it automatically records them using the front camera and their commentaries using the device's microphone. (kes)
