You run the event.
The stream runs itself.
Whatever you think livestreaming requires — the equipment, the software, the person running it — that's every other tool. Switcher Now works differently. Someone already at your event starts the stream in under 60 seconds and gets back to what they came to do.
One phone. Nothing to configure. Open Switcher Now and tap Start Streaming.
Scan a QR code and their phone is live too. No app, no account, no training needed.
No algorithm. Send the link — they open it and they're watching. No app required.
Live or replay — they pick the camera they want. The recording is there when the event ends.
The market made you the producer.
We made the audience the producer.
No special equipment needed
Anyone at your event scans a QR code and their phone becomes a live camera. Start line, finish line, the crowd — any position, any phone. No synchronization, no setup. Each camera runs independently.
Your audience chooses their view
Viewers switch between any active camera angle themselves — in real time. They follow who they came to watch. You're not running a show. You're running your event.
Private by default
Your stream goes to a direct link you control. No public feed, no algorithm, no chance of it going somewhere you didn't intend. Only the people you share the link with can watch.
A few things people ask
Do I need to set anything up before going live?
No. Open Switcher Now, tap Start Streaming, and you're live in under 60 seconds. You can create an event page and share a watch link ahead of time — but it's not required. One phone, one tap.
Does the person running the cameras need to download an app?
No. Anyone at the event scans a QR code with their phone's camera — no download, no account required. They point their phone at the action and they're immediately a live camera feed. Their job is done in under 60 seconds.
One thing to know: the browser tab needs to stay open and the phone needs to stay awake for the whole event — closing the tab or letting the screen lock will pause that camera's feed.
What happens if a camera drops during the stream?
The stream keeps going from any other active cameras. Viewers automatically see another angle. The dropped camera reconnects by scanning the QR code again — it takes about ten seconds.
The most common cause of a dropped camera isn't signal — it's a phone's screen locking or the browser tab losing focus. Keeping the tab open and the screen awake prevents this entirely.
Can viewers watch the replay after the event ends?
Yes. Every camera angle is recorded automatically. The watch link stays active after the stream ends — anyone who missed it can watch the replay at the same link. See the full streaming guide →
