How to Video Call on BIGO LIVE
Use Guest Live to invite someone onto your broadcast or request to join a room you are watching. The room can see and hear a connected guest. If you want to speak with your camera off, choose the audio option when it is available. Official BIGO LIVE video call guide
Join a LIVE you are watching
- Look for Connect by the chat bar. It may appear under a menu or as a link icon.

- Send the request and wait for the host to accept. Check your microphone and camera framing before you speak. BIGO LIVE guest controls
Invite someone while you are live
Open the viewer list, select the person's profile, and tap Connect. They must accept before they appear. BIGO documents up to two guests on camera in the regular Guest Live format. Host invitation steps
Pandón’s tip 🐼 Agree on the first question with your guest. If you hear an echo, ask anyone playing the broadcast on another device to turn its volume down.
Start a group room
Choose Multi-Guest Live from the broadcast setup. Pick the capacity, give the room a title, and go live. Invite guests or review requests from people who tap an available seat. BIGO describes layouts for 4, 6, 9, or 12 people, including the host. A six-seat room can hold you and four guests with one seat open. BIGO LIVE group room guide
Check your camera, microphone, and connection
- Look behind you for documents, messages, or personal details before turning on video.
- If nobody can see or hear you, check the camera and microphone controls in the room and the app permissions in your phone settings.
- If the video freezes, keep BIGO LIVE open, try a stable network, and rejoin the room if you lose your connection. You can request audio when video is unreliable. BIGO LIVE troubleshooting
