Instagram is Testing Live Video

Would you go “live” on Instagram? Just when you’re starting to get a handle on Instagram Stories, screenshots surface of a new live-streaming feature for Instagram.

Instagram Live looks a lot like Instagram Stories, but with a “LIVE” banner attached to the profile photo:

To go “live” on Instagram, you’re asked to “Go Insta!” instead. There’s also a “schedule” button in the upper corner that suggests that you could schedule Instagram Live, which you can do on Facebook as of last week.

As of now, this feature is being tested on Instagram and is not available to all users.

Do you think live streaming is the future? Should we expect a “live” feature from Snapchat, too? Let us know in the comments if you would use Instagram Live!
