How to go live on Youtube from PC (with Webcam), Android and iPhone

Going live and creating a visible video broadcast from around the world has never been easier after the recent Youtube update.
Not only is it now possible to broadcast live from the phone, but it has become super easy to go live from the computer too, creating a public broadcast channel from home, using the webcam
YouTube now offers, in fact, an extraordinary feature of Webcam Live Stream that allows you to go live to speak with the subscribers of the channel or any other person who by chance or by invitation has found our streaming.
Previously, when you wanted to go live on YouTube, you had to use external programs and additional codecs, while now YouTube has added the Live Streaming feature that allows you to stream videos from your PC's webcam or smartphone camera (Android and iPhone), directly, without installing external software.
To go live on YouTube using the PC webcam, you need to open the link of the Youtube live broadcast page //www.youtube.com/webcam.
The presentation page of the Youtube live streaming service warns that to go live video you must have a good reputation and that the identity of the account is verified.
A good reputation simply requires that our channel has not been restricted due to the publication of copyrighted content in the past 90 days.
The verification of the channel is obtained instead from this page, providing a phone number, without any need to be famous or other requirements.
However, activating live streaming requires a 24-hour wait to allow administrators to perform routine checks that will certainly be successful.
A URL (like //www.youtube.com/c/ClaudioPomes/live ) is also immediately assigned and can be shared online to allow anyone to see us live on Youtube.
If everything is correct, press the Start button on the live broadcast page and allow access to the webcam and microphone of the computer and go live.
The transmission must be given a title, a description and then you must select the type of webcam or microphone you have.
You can then set the level of privacy, to allow viewing to all or only to those invited.
You can also enable some advanced settings such as chat open to those who see the live broadcast, age limits and paid promotion.
Once you are done with the settings, just press the "Next" button to open the camera screen and take a selfie photo that acts as the cover of the live channel.
After this, the configuration is finished and you can press the " Go Live " button to start broadcasting from the PC and the webcam.
You will then be able to invite viewers using the channel sharing URL.
During the live you will be able to see the counter of the number of spectators and I like to the live streaming video and you can chat with the spectators (if chat has been enabled).
To stop, you can press the button to end the streaming at the bottom.
The same function is also available on the Youtube application for iPhone and for Android, where the camera button appears at the top to go immediately live and transmit from the phone's camera.
