The new redesign of the YouTube application comes with this feature baked into its software. Now, streamers on YouTube can grow their community of viewers directly from the application. Some guidelines govern the usage of this feature, and YouTube helps its creators understand how to properly use this feature on the support page.

The bits and pieces of YouTube Live Q&A feature

This new feature is all about making YouTube a more interactive platform for live streamers and viewers. With this feature, YouTubers can manage Q&A sessions while a live stream is ongoing. The session will be controlled by a moderator (the live streamer) directly from the Live Control Room now available on the YouTube platform. Here, viewers ask questions during a live stream and the content creator or YouTuber streaming answers them directly. Questions will get a chronological sorting order, with questions coming in according to their time of being asked. Also, the live streamer can choose to block specific words from their Q&A session and report certain unruly viewers. In addition to asking questions, the viewers can also take live poll votes. With this, YouTubers that use the live stream feature will be able to better connect with their viewers and fans. All of this is currently available on the YouTube platform thanks to its most recent update. So, for users that are yet to get access to this feature, consider installing the YouTube application upgrade available on the Google PlayStore.
