Facebook has just introduced a feature that allows users to invite friends to join the livestream video with me. You can imagine this feature like using Hangouts on Air via YouTube Live . With this feature, you can invite your Facebook friends to join and share the streaming video screen even when you are not in the same place .

Facebook first introduced this feature to celebrities but now all users and fanpage can be used via iOS app. Facebook has not said when this feature will work on Android devices.

Two portrait and landscape modes are supported when playing videos. In portrait mode, the screen of the keyman will show your friend's image in picture-in-picture format. With landscape mode, the screen of two people will split in two.

The latest update of the Facebook application also allows users who are livestream to send messages directly to one of the people watching. So you can chat privately during the broadcast. Facebook also said some "fun" and "connected" features will soon appear.

After scandals of violent videos, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg also confirmed the application will have 3,000 more mods to control video and report when needed.
