We provide as close to real-time streaming as your connection allows. As my colleague Jonas Vig explained in the Wall Street Journal: “…if you are in an area with a poor connection, the frame rate will drop down, but it will be as close to real time as possible.” The article goes on to explain, “Normal video is transmitted at around 30 frames per second. That requires a good connection. The Bambuser app will drop as low as single figures, so the effect will be jerky, but it will still be real time… once the livestream is over, the app uploads the missing frames, backfilling the video so that the replayed video is of much higher quality.”

Bambuser supports, by far, the highest number of handsets. Currently around 360 different models. This includes most models based on iOS, Android, Symbian (Nokia), Bada (Samsung), Meego and Maemo (Nokia), Windows Mobile – this means that if you have a smartphone you’re most likely able to use Bambuser
