Social ecosystem WeChat has recently added several features to help creators and brands. We’ve outlined the new additions below:
One-click livestream for WeChat mini-games
On 25 June, a one-click livestream feature for WeChat mini-games was launched.
Users can go live on WeChat Mini-Games by clicking the “…” button in the upper right corner of the mini-game. This transports them to WeChat Channels. Alternatively, users can access the function through WeChat Channels by searching for WeChat Mini-Games during a livestream.
After the livestream starts, the live window will be displayed in the upper left corner of the screen with livestream data, such as popularity, number of people online, and bullet-screen comments. Users can turn on or off the microphone to talk with others, share the livestream, and jump to shopping links/lottery.
