Needless to say, this app is unique among other mobile live-streaming apps in being marijuana centric. People of the global cannabis community create accounts on this video streaming app, and discover and follow people that have the same interests. In fact, they can stream live stories, make and share video loops, comment and chat with other members. The community members can view global broadcasts of trending videos related to cannabis on this medical marijuana app. They can even read about chat on live streams and learn about cannabis strains via the Strains feature. The admin can view user accounts, loops broadcasts and manage moderation. The admin has the authority to manage, delete or ban user accounts in case they are flagged by other users. [**Let’s Build Your App**](/contact-us/) ## Our Client and His Requirements Our client is from North America and he had this unique app development idea with his friends. He and his friends consume medical marijuana and they were once discussing that there are no live platforms for the people of the marijuana community to interact with each other. At that time, there were only textual platforms for them but nothing to guide them when they needed it the most. Many marijuana smokers didn’t know the amount or dosage properly. This live streaming video platform allows users to interact without fear of judgement. He started looking for app development companies and found us through organic search on Google. Belonging to a technical background and having great designing skills, he was clear with his idea. We had a discussion about project requirements and exchanged ideas. We decided to collaborate as both parties were in agreement and were excited about such a unique project. ![live_strem_client_requirement](https://wp.spaceo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/live_strem_client_requirement.svg) ## How this Live Streaming App is Beneficial for the Cannabis Community ![Live Streaming App is Beneficial for the Cannabis Community](https://wp.spaceo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/live-streaming-apps.png)- The main benefit of this live streaming platform is that communication between marijuana community members gets maximized.

Users just need to enter the name and a verifiable email address. They can create any unique and creative user name as per their wish (unless its already taken). ![Profile](https://wp.spaceo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Profile.svg) ### Profile After signing up, users need to create a profile by picking a unique username and a display picture of choice. Even editing and managing profile settings anytime is possible. Users manage security by changing password and reporting and blocking users. ![Timeline](https://wp.spaceo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Timeline.svg) ### Timeline Every user’s timeline displays broadcasts and loops of the people they are following. The timeline also shows the followers and the following section. Users can view live streaming videos and comment on these which the streamers can see and reply to at the same time. ![Search](https://wp.spaceo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Search.svg) ### Search Using the search feature, the users can look for people they want to follow or find a loop they heard about. They can search for viral trending loops globally or search for followers to connect to them. ![Hashtags and Strains](https://wp.spaceo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Hashtags-and-Strains.svg) ### Hashtags and Strains This is a social streaming app and therefore people use hashtags. Users can make their own hashtags or follow trending hashtags to find posts related to these. Another feature is the Strains, where people learn about different strains of cannabis and techniques to smoke. ![Broadcasts](https://wp.spaceo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Broadcasts.svg) ### Broadcasts This app has live video streaming software. Users can share livestories under the Broadcasts feature. Users can customize story settings like who can see and can’t see. They can also view and reply to comments on the live streaming videos. ![Loops](https://wp.spaceo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Loops.svg) ### Loops Making video loops is quite an interesting feature of this live video app. Users can record parts of video or take small parts of different videos, edit or discard them and then combine them. After combining, all the users need to do is add information/caption if they wish and publish it. ![Screen Sharing](https://wp.spaceo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Screen-Sharing.svg) ### Screen Sharing Without a screen sharing feature any live streaming application is worthless. So with this feature, users will broadcast the screenshot to their companion to display the contents of their phone. It is specifically helpful for different tutorials. I bet that with such activities, if you diversify your content, it would make your live streaming app stand out. ## Working of Admin Backend Website ![User Information](https://wp.spaceo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/User-Information.svg) ### User Information The admin has access to viewing user name, profile information, device type and model, their broadcasts, comments on broadcasts, loops and other general information.

Admin can view loops and information like the author, date of posting, number of views, hearts, tokes on the loop. The admin can remove a loop if someone reasonably reports it. ![Manage Hashtags and Strains](https://wp.spaceo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Manage-Hashtags-and-Strains.svg) ### Manage Hashtags and Strains Admin can create and manage hashtags and strains. Admin can check which hashtags and strains have been featured how many times in broadcasts and loops.
