7 of The Best Popular Live-Streaming Apps you Should Know

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, governments have imposed stay-at-home orders and limited crowd sizes at public events.

People are reducing outdoor activities and decreasing visits to physical retail stores.

Instead, consumers are switching to online shopping due to safety and convenience factors.

Therefore, live-streaming apps’ popularity has been increased.

These apps provide entertainment and allow people to communicate in a fun way.

Some live-streaming apps have a built-in interface for marketing and retail.

For example, Facebook Live is allowing vendors to sell goods through it.

Other live-streaming apps provide an interactive interface for fans to interact with celebrities instantaneously.

One example of this feature is V Live, which is used by many Korean idols to hold live broadcasts.

Here are 7 of the most popular live-streaming apps you should know.
