Twitter has updated its Periscope app with landscape video support ahead of a rumored app for the new Apple TV.
Periscope lets you broadcast live video to the world. Going live will instantly notify your followers who can join, comment and send you hearts in real time. The more hearts you get, the higher they flutter on the screen.
What's New In This Version:
[+] Landscape: When a broadcaster holds their phone in landscape, the video will now be oriented properly for all viewers. Viewers can continue holding their device in portrait, or match the broadcaster's orientation to maintain full screen video. Either way, you'll never need to watch sideways video again!
[+] Share Indication: When someone you follow shares a broadcast, it appears in your home feed. In this update, we've added an indicator beneath the broadcast title explaining who shared it with you.
[+] Share on Facebook: You can now share the link to a LIVE broadcast or replay on Facebook. To see this option, you'll need to log in to Facebook from the iOS Settings app on your device.
[+] Accessibility: We've heard from a lot of people that Periscope needs to be more accessible. In this version we've made large steps toward fully supporting our VoiceOver users.
Other changes:
[+] If you turn off chat/hearts while watching a live broadcast, you can now simply tap the "Chat Hidden" label to turn them back on.
[+] Fixed a bug where people who signed up with their phone number couldn't change their profile image.
[+] Made some optimizations that should reduce the amount of space Periscope takes up on your device.
You can download Periscope from the App Store for free.
