— Neal Mohan (@nealmohan) February 18, 2022 Similar indicators for channels that are live streaming are already available on other social platforms such as TikTok and Instagram. While TikTok adds a pulsing ring effect on a channel’s profile picture to notify the user that it is live streaming, Instagram displays a colorful ring around the profile pictures of live streaming accounts. The Live Rings feature is gradually rolling out to users on Android and iOS. If you are unable to see the feature on your device, you may start seeing it in the coming days! You can also try updating your YouTube app from the Google Play Store or the App Store.
