Mirrativ is a recently launched livestreaming app that combines the functions of the already popular Twitch and Periscope apps. Mirrativ, the word itself a portmanteau of "mirror" and "narrative," allows users to broadcast their smartphone or tablet screen to interested parties. The unique capability of Mirrativ is that it allows users to interact while they are live-streaming another's screen.
The announcement of Mirrativ comes only days after the launch of YouTube Gaming, an Android app and community for watching live video. Mirrativ is the first livestreaming app to allow user participation from a smartphone or tablet rather than a computer.
Although the focus of Mirrativ has been positioned around gaming, it has the capability of sharing anything happening on your screen, whether that is Instagram editing or making a calendar event.
