Ensure a smooth mobile streaming experience by optimizing your connection, device settings, and environment. Follow these key tips to maintain stability, avoid interruptions, and deliver high-quality broadcasts.
Mobile streaming recommendations
- If you stream from home, stay close to the Wi-Fi router for a better connection.
- If you stream using mobile data, make sure you have a strong and stable signal (4G or higher is recommended).
- Keep your battery level above 50%.
- Run a speed test before starting the stream.
At least 4 Mbps upload and download speeds are recommended for 720p broadcast. For 1080p, you need at least 7 Mbps download and 4 Mbps upload speed. Your ping should be less than 200ms; your jitter less than 4ms.
- For iOS: Background apps can interfere with streaming. Make sure to close unnecessary apps.
- For Android: Closing background apps is also recommended.
- Restart the stream after 1–2 hours. Check the connection, battery, and device temperature.
- Clear cache and cookies regularly to prevent browser-related issues.
- Always monitor your signal strength and battery level during the stream to prevent interruptions.
- Keep the broadcast page in the foreground to avoid issues caused by browser policies (e.g., freezing or closing when in the background).
Important information about the external environment
- Speed and stability can fluctuate during peak hours, such as on holidays, weekends, and in the evenings. This happens because people are at home and browse the internet more frequently than at other times of the day.
- Weather conditions can also impact mobile signal strength.
- External factors like moving between areas can cause changes in connection quality.
By following these tips, you can enhance your mobile broadcasting experience, minimize technical issues, and keep your audience engaged. Stay connected, stay prepared, and enjoy smooth streaming!
