JAKARTA - Some time ago, Meta launched a new capability to Instagram, which allows its users to broadcast live with just close friends.

Previously, Instagram users could not manage who could watch their live broadcasts on Live. But, with this new option, you can set your live broadcast audience by selecting the Close Friends or Follower option.

This feature has been widely launched to all users starting Thursday, June 20. Well, if you are still confused about how to use it, follow the following steps:

How to start a live broadcast with close friends

To start live broadcasts on Live Instagram with friends on your close friends list, follow the following method.

For additional information, the accounts you add to the Close Friends list will be notified every time you make a live broadcast.

If they are not included in the list, they will not get a notification, and cannot watch your live broadcast.

This new feature could be very suitable for anyone, both ordinary users and influencers who don't want their videos to become public broadcasts. Influencers can broadcast for any purpose without receiving an assessment or criticism from the public.
