Instagram has announced a new feature that lets you go live with a friend.

Live video helps you share in an authentic way, but sometimes it can be intimidating when you’re on your own. It’s easy to add a guest while you’re broadcasting. Simply tap the new icon on the bottom right and tap “Add” to invite anyone who’s currently watching. Once they join, you’ll see the screen split into two and your friend pop up right below you.

Instagram says you can remove your guest and add another at any time or they can choose to exit on their own. You can share your live video to stories once the broadcast has ended or choose to discard it.

When someone you follow is going live with a friend, you'll see two circles stacked together in the stories bar. Tap on the circles to watch.

Take a look at the video below for more details. You can download Instagram from the App Store for free.

Not to be a dick but live what? Was that like a really big fight and I didn’t mean to say was is I have no idea? never heard of it! But I don’t think anybody steals any ideas from anybody as for these companies. Considering these are all things anybody can come up with meaning you and I obviously don’t have the money to make that a reality, but any company does! as long as there bringing it to us that’s all I care about, not who steals what. If we start caring about that then forget about anything new lol. As it is we have smart devices and only a few things that work with either smart device so make a smart choice otherwise you might have to say Alexa Siri OK Google I want... Oh forget about it I forgot now lol
