Creating mobile live video streams with Meerkat for Android couldn't be simpler, but it lacks features and polish.

Start and Schedule

Meerkat's developers deserve credit for creating an app that's extremely simple to use.

When viewing a stream, you can comment from within the app. Hosts can see the comments on their screens.

Meerkat streams can be viewed online by anyone, provided they log in with their Twitter account.

Meerkat's best feature is that it lets you schedule livestreams for the future.

You can add more friends by searching for their Twitter handles, but without autocomplete or suggestions, it's a bit tricky.
