I'm joining the attempting to record brigade and I have bluetack over the camera, but will be sitting in absolute silence just incase the stupid app decides to livestream me without my content. Bloody thing.

Well. It's 8pm. May the crap commence.

Edit: Aaaand I refreshed and the app went weird lol. This is going to be such a fail.

i refreshed and the app no longer works! wow

Yep, all a bit blank so far.

My app keeps telling me that I'm not following them. Anyone see them?

The app broke.

I like Rize, but I 100% knew that it wasn't gonna work for Deppy. *le sigh*

I gave recording an attempt and think I might have managed it if the app wasn't completely blank for me now lol. Was working fine about 20 minutes ago, I guess they crashed it already?

Aaaaaaaa mon dieu…bon courage to all the people about to watch/record (or at least attempt to lmao) the stream! It looks like it’ll be a trainwreck and it sucks I won’t be able to witness it firsthand . Stay safe, sticker up them cameras, and be patient with dnp. I send good vibes your ways

lol

Is anybody actually managing to load the stream, or is it just blanking out for everybody? Mine just says "unable to load room" and my phone is really heating up!

joke of the year

^ Nope and the same heat issue, this app really is a steaming pile of doodoo. What were YouNow thinking.

And understatement of the year goes to…

ETA: yeahhhhhh we’re are gonna need a lot of good vibes for all of this

I was shocked when I went on a little bit ago and saw 400+ people in a pre-show room and thought it may actually work. Then came back a few minutes later to 600+ in the room and the picture wouldn’t load.

Now all the live cams they show you has gone and there’s just a whole lot of nothing.

ETA: lol, that tweet. *panic* *panic* basically then. Totally called it.

I'm glad that I can't even attempt to watch the show (#JusticeforHuaweis). So you all hang in there and I'm gonna go fold some socks or something.
Phil better send an angry email to Rize/YN tomorrow.

Ugh, I was in their room but then relaunched the app, and now it won't connect.

I just really don't understand how no one realized how terrible of an idea this was. Just.. how. How was this even approved I don't understand.

On one hand I would hope the app crash pushes them to livestream in another way, but I'm assuming the sponsorship ties them to only livestreaming with the app - given that the app works, of course. I'm not really sure that this is the best publicity Rize could hope for, honestly.

i haven't had any issues with not being able to see the room, i'm here and i can see people chatting but no deppy and my phone is definitely overheating. if it doesn't work at all i hope they'll still give us a liveshow on younow or youtube.

I'm in the room (I think) has anyone seen them yet and I'm just in the wrong place? (Or have they not come online at all?)

Lol I'm patiently waiting with a post-it in front of my camera. I don't even know what I'm supposed to see though, could be in the wrong room for all I know.

what is a room and how to I get in it? lol

You know I had a little bit of hope that this would go fine but 15 minutes and they still aren't live. Oh deppy what did you get into...

Search for the account DanAndPhil and click on in - their profile/stream is their "room" Although at this point it's just darkness and a bunch of confused Phans chatting haha.

I'm in the room, but I can't see the chat.

Why didn't they do a private room where they invited the Frist few hundred followers and then invite a different group next time? It would limit the numbers and stop it crashing.
