Built by a streamer

LiveLens brings PC-style streaming control to Android creators.

LiveLens exists for creators who want to stream, record, manage scenes, control audio, and add overlays from a phone without watermarks, forced accounts, or hidden walls.

The vision

Freedom in your pocket, not a smaller version of a locked-down tool.

Mobile streaming has often meant compromises: limited bitrate control, watermarks, account requirements, weak overlay support, and features held behind paywalls. LiveLens was started to remove those limits and give mobile creators a serious production surface.

Project story

From technical wall to working streaming engine.

Dec 15, 2024

The beginning

The project started with a clear vision but almost no streaming-engine knowledge. FBOs, PBuffer, OpenGL ES pipelines, encoding, and rendering all had to be learned from the ground up.

Break point

Burnout and reset

The technical scope became overwhelming, and the project paused for several months. That break made the path clearer: solve one rendering problem, one audio issue, and one workflow at a time.

Return

Building the core

The app came back through focused work on OpenGL, MediaCodec, scenes, sources, capture, and the pieces needed for a practical mobile streaming pipeline.

Today

Made for creators

LiveLens is still independent and built at night around a full-time job. The goal remains direct: help mobile creators produce without giving up control.

What makes it different

LiveLens is built around control, not lock-in.

No watermarks

Your stream and recordings should look like your content, not an app advertisement.

No forced login

Start faster without making a creator account just to use core streaming tools.

Professional pipeline

OpenGL ES rendering, modern encoding, audio controls, overlays, and scene-based production.

Privacy-first direction

The product is designed to avoid data harvesting and unnecessary background dependency.

Ecosystem

Main app plus Lite voice chat.

LiveLens Main handles high-quality streaming and recording. LiveLens Lite focuses on low-latency voice chat, so creators can coordinate without making the streaming app heavier than it needs to be.
