How To Request To Join A Live Stream On TikTok - Hashtag Hyena

One of the best things that TikTok adopted was to be able to do live shows together. Here’s how you can request to join someone’s live stream.

Doing joint live streams has more benefits and is more entertaining than doing the solo ones. A live stream enables you to have someone to talk to instead of just you going on without any direction.

If you just want to impart some knowledge or do a comedy skit then its fine but if you really want to engage your audience, joining live streaming is the best way to go. Your audience will see you interact and relate to you better.

Can I go live on TikTok?

The feature of going live was launched in 2019 and it gave the users to provide long videos in this platform filled with short videos.

But unlike Instagram, not everyone with an account can go live for their followers. You need at least a thousand followers for now (in June 2021) to be able to use TikTok Live.

Apart from that, users above 13 years can make an account on the platform but they have to be above 16 years of age before they can start going live.

So after growing your followers to 1k, the best way to interact with them in real time would be with live streams where nothing is edited and you can showcase the real you.
