Periscope

Free Android iOS Browser Unix

Periscope is an app that allows you to broadcast what you are doing at the moment. Periscope broadcasts you from your front camera but has the feature to switch over to your rear-facing camera. This gives you control over what your audience is seeing and as a result you can broadcast both yourself and the world around you. This application is compatible with Android, Ios, Mac, and Windows, giving you the flexibility to go live from any device. Once your live broadcast has started, viewers will start to appear to watch you do your thing. Viewers have the option to comment on your live stream, giving them the option to communicate with them in real time.

Pros of Periscope

Free to use
Search by Location
Periscope allows you to search by location, allowing you to see people who are broadcasting near you. On the opposite side, if you are broadcasting people in your area can find your live stream simply by searching by location.
Hearts
Hearts are a fun feature on Periscope that allows the audience to show whoever is streaming that they like their content. Hearts are free and can be spammed by users to show tons of love to their favorite stars.
Periscope is free for both viewers and broadcasters, allowing anyone to reach a wider audience than ever before.

Cons of Periscope

No Stored History
Since Periscope doesn't save your broadcasts forever, it is impossible to save comments and hearts from viewers as well. Periscope also doesn't show any analytics about users live streams, making it difficult for professional broadcasters to grow on the app.
Share on Twitter only
Due to the fact that Periscope and Twitter run by the same company, users only have the option to share their broadcast to Twitter. As a result, any followers from other social media platforms won't see that you are currently live and will miss out on the broadcast.
