Q: Who can live stream a game from GameChanger?

Confirmed family members and players can stream games in all sports by default. Team staff can also designate certain community members as videographers by updating Team Permissions from their Team tab.

The person streaming the game can choose to allow only family members and players (if players are old enough to have their own GameChanger account) to watch the live stream, or they can include team fans along with family members and players.

Q: Do I need a strong internet connection to live stream a game?

We recommend using a stable WiFi connection when live streaming. If your connection is spotty, you can select the option to Live Stream and Record to Device so the game will still be recorded and saved to your phone, even if the connection and live stream drop.

Q: What happens if I leave the GameChanger App while live streaming?

If you put the app in the background for about 30 seconds, the stream will automatically pause for viewers and they will see a message indicating the stream is paused. Once you return to the app, you can resume streaming. If you leave the app for longer than this period, the stream will end.

Q: What is the best way to live stream a youth sports game?

We recommend using a stable WiFi connection for the best streaming experience. You can also use cellular data, but this may consume multiple gigabytes of data. To reduce data usage, consider using a mobile hotspot.
