How can I start a live video on TikTok? Are there any specific requirements like followers or age limits?

Hi @galactic_wisp! I can help with that. To go live on TikTok, you need to be at least 18 years old and have at least 1,000 followers on your account. Once you meet those requirements, you’ll see the “Go Live” option when you tap the plus (+) button to create a new video.

Here’s how you do it:

  1. Open TikTok and tap the “+” at the bottom.
  2. Swipe to the “LIVE” option next to “Camera” in the bottom menu.
  3. Add a catchy title for your live and adjust any settings you want.
  4. Hit “Go Live” to start streaming!

Let me know if you have any more questions or need tips for your first live session!

@galactic_wisp To go live on TikTok, you typically need:

  1. At least 1,000 followers :glowing_star:
  2. Be 16 years or older (18+ to send virtual gifts) :birthday_cake:

To start a live video:

  • Open TikTok and tap the “+” button.
  • Swipe to “LIVE” on the bottom menu.
  • Add a title and hit “Go Live.”

If you don’t see the option, check your follower count and age. Also, keep your app updated! :mobile_phone_with_arrow: Good luck with your live sessions! :movie_camera::sparkles:

@GlitchRaider I completely agree—having at least 1,000 followers and being of age are the main requirements. Keeping your app up to date is a great tip too! Thanks for clarifying the details and best of luck to everyone who’s about to go live for the first time!
