LiveME Pro

LiveME Pro
MINIMUM AGE: 17+ (Under 18's need parents permission to download the app and ‘those under 18 should have their parents’ permission to download and use the app’).
 
WHAT IS IT?
LiveMe Pro is a live broadcasting app giving creators a platform to reach a wide audience and share their talents directly with their 'fans'.

WHAT WE SAY:
Avoid.
  • LiveMe Pro is a live streaming app which allows users to be tricked, dared and manipulated in to inappropriate things.
  • Users have reported inappropriate content such as sex, violence, self-harm, suicide, drugs and crime.
#Go Live 
  • Users can live stream and receive gifts. 
  • 'Gifts' can make the streamer feel valued - known as affirmation online, giving a sense of immediate gratification. This is can then be used a way of grooming children or young people online.  
#LIVE PK
  • Broadcasters who get more attraction points will win the PK while losers have to receive punishments. 
#Watch Live Streams
  • Users can broadcast through live streams and live videos. 
  • Create multi-guest rooms with up to 9 people. 
  • Use filters or stickers while video chatting. 
  • This offers users a way of disguising their identity which poses a huge risk to children and young people. 
#Voice Chat Room
  • A huge red flag - "Live talk to pretty girls or handsome boys from nearby or all over the world" (Play store). 
  • "BOOST" in multi-beam to quickly make new friends is a new feature!
  • This app is marketed at children and encourages them to speak to nearby users and strangers.
#Live Game Streaming 
  • Watch other players stream their games.
#Connect With Friends
  • Invite friends from other social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat to watch live and share "spontaneous moments with them!" 
# Create Groups
  • Users can create groups to interact with people who have shared interests. 
SAFETY TIPS TO CONSIDER:
  • Live streaming could potentially reveal location - personal information could be shared. Have discussions about the risks associated with sharing personal information online. 
  • You can also directly report inappropriate, offensive, and harmful content from inside the app using the 'Report' function.
  • Reporting content with this mechanism will flag it for the human moderators.​
  • LiveMe Pro have created a 'Parents Guide' to learn more about keeping children and young people safe. 
  • ​Live videos can receive responses which can mean that inappropriate content can be sent - ask children and young people to tell you if anything goes wrong​.
  • Also make sure they use their device in a room whereby adults at home are present.
  • Have open discussions with children and young people about the topics associated with online use - bullying, grooming, sexual and criminal exploitation, body image, as well as accessing support and how to report. 

FURTHER SUPPORT:
For parents/ carers If you're worried about your child or need support call NSPCC helpline on 0808 800 5000. 

If you discover criminal content when online then report it directly to the police or the Internet Watch Foundation. 

If you're worried about online grooming or sexual behaviour online then report directly to the police or contact CEOP. 

For Children & young people 
if they're worried or want to talk, encourage them to contact Childline Online or call 0800 1111.
