Instagram users can now watch and comment on live videos from their desktop, or larger screens. This comes after a rise in demand for real-time video on WhatsApp and Facebook, as well as Facebook Live and Instagram Live, especially in areas mostly affected by Covid-19. Here, users can create a room right from Messenger or Facebook, and invite anyone to join, even if they don’t have a Facebook account. Additionally, users will now add the donate button to live videos wherever non-profit fundraisers are available to help users raise money for causes. Facebook is making it easier to access live video so its users can watch or listen anywhere.
