How to watch livestream on instagram
When the person you are following is broadcasting live, you can watch it by tapping the icon displayed as "LIVE" at the top of the timeline as described above.
You can also search for and watch other users' livestreams even if you don't follow them. In that case, tap the discovery tab (magnifying glass mark), and then tap the "IGTV" tab displayed at the top of the screen. * Currently, the "IGTV" tab seems to be displayed only for the iPhone version.
