Livestream View
The live stream view is designed to allow the person who is live streaming to see as much of the live stream window as possible while still having access to useful controls and functions.
Through the scoreboard in the live stream, viewers can see the game clock, half-time indicator, and in age groups with result reporting, the current score in the game. If someone scores a goal and updates the event reporting from the game, the score, period, and game clock are automatically updated from that reporting.

Livestream Options
Start & Stop Halftime and Game Clock
When the game starts, press "Start 1st". This updates the half number, and then the game clock starts in the live stream view as well as in the view shown to the viewers.
When the half ends, press "End 1st". When halftime has come, the button immediately switches to the start of the next half. The length of halves is automatically controlled by the series to which the game belongs.
If you have several live streams from the same game, the app will detect if the first half of the game has been live-streamed and will suggest the start of the next half.
Edit Scoreboard
If you need to edit the scoreboard or time, tap the edit icon to the left of the scoreboard.
You can choose to edit the score, period, or game clock. Confirm the changes by pressing the confirm button.
To stop editing, tap the x icon to close the edit view. In matches without result reporting, it is not possible to edit the score on the scoreboard, but only the period number and match clock.
When goals and event reporting are done by another user, it is not possible to edit the scoreboard unless you take over the reporting in the broadcast.
Scoreboard Takeover
When a goal and event reporting is started, the person live streaming receives a notification in the live stream view that that user has taken over control of the scoreboard.
That user then checks the information displayed on the scoreboard both in the live stream view and for those watching. You as a live streamer can then instead put all your focus on making a good livestream and catching the highlights of the game.
If, for some reason, you want to control the scoreboard in the live stream even though another user has started an event report, you can take over the control by pressing the scoreboard's edit button.
If you have taken over control of the scoreboard, your changes will be visible to those watching the live stream, while the other user's goals and event reporting will be what applies to the game outside of the broadcast itself.
Other Livestream Settings
The app's basic settings are adapted to work well for most livestreamings. In the lower right corner of the live stream view, you will find a menu button where you can adjust settings such as focus or switch to a wide-angle camera if this is supported on the device you are live streaming from. Keep in mind that some phones may offer settings options that aren't available on other phone models.
