How to Stream Video From iPhone

Streaming video is when you use a video camera to record and send what is happening live right in front of you over the Internet to anybody watching. The video camera is obviously that of the iPhone, and since it is Internet capable that makes this a ready-to-stream device.

Things You'll Need

• Jailbroken iPhone
• Cydia store
• Computer with internet

Instructions

1. Open up the Cydia application on your jailbroken iPhone. Go to the "Search" tab and search for an application named "Qik". Once you find this application, download it.

2. Get on your computer's internet and navigate to "Qik.com". Register for a new account on this site by clicking on "Join". Once the account is made, remember your log-in information.

3. Return to your iPhone and start the "Qik" application. Log in, the application will turn on the camera, and the interface is simple from there. To start streaming, hit the "record" button, and it will start streaming video from the phone to the "Qik.com". There you can publish the video to other sites like Facebook.

Tips & Warnings

• Be in an area with faster Internet such as Wi-Fi or 3G, because Edge will produce a more choppy video.

• Please note that this article does not teach you how to jailbreak your phone, as this is a process that is considered by some to be illegal.
