Pinterest Testing Livestream Events

[engine]

Pinterest has decided to test livestream events May 24th to 25th, inclusive, with 21 creators, and livestreams allow up to five guests and unlimited numbers of users. There should be around seven different sessions per day from the "live" tab in the Pinterest Android or iOS app. With this it's joining almost every other mainstream service building live events.

users will launch the livestreaming experience directly inside Pinterest mobile app and remain there during the sessions. Pinterest users can also comment to interact with the creator during their stream, but there is no longer any shopping functionality
