Canon-LaunchesCanon Introduces Seamless Multi-Camera Live Streaming via iPhones and iPads

 

Japanese multinational imaging corporation, Canon has released a new application for iPhones and iPads that may revolutionise live streaming using multiple cameras. Called the “Live Switcher Mobile”, the application lets the users seamlessly switch shared live streams on up to three devices connected to the same Wi-Fi network. This development is therefore beneficial for content creators who need professional livestreaming solutions, but do not require additional hardware.

 

Key Features of Live Switcher Mobile

 

Canon also points out that the app can be used to create a professional live-streaming atmosphere without using a PC or other additional equipment. It is very convenient when a user can set how long one connected device is active before it switches to another connected device automatically. This saves the manual time required for operation during broadcasts making it more convenient to the users.

It continues to offer creative flexibility by allowing other device screens to be streamed in real time. This feature is especially handy for gaming or showing app tutorials as people can share their device screens while overlaying live camera streams capturing their reactions at the same time. The other features are text and graphics overlays and real-time comment monitoring for dynamic and interactive Live streaming.

 

Subscription Brings Advanced Features

 

The app is free to download and use, though the use of Canon’s advanced in-app features requires a subscription costing $25 (or roughly ₹1,999) per month. This includes Picture-in-Picture video scaling, resolution switching (Full HD and HD), and live streams, without a watermark. These enhancements are added to ensure that content creators have greater flexibility and professional quality output.

 

Compatibility and availability

 

The Live Switcher Mobile app is available to download from Apple’s App Store. Moreover, this app is designed for iPhones running iOS 16, 17, and 18 and iPad (iPadOS 16, 17, 18). Canon’s latest offering is all set to attract content creators who seek a mobile-first, streamlined approach to multi-camera live streaming.

 

Conclusion

 

Canon's new app is a game-changer for content creators. “With the new Live Switcher Mobile app, there’s no need anymore for other equipment like a PC to set up a pro livestream platform,” says the company, in announcing the new app. The app boasts its handy tools and low price and can barely change live stream solutions for Apple users.
