From September 12 onwards, ‘Hangout on Air’ won’t be available on Google+

Google+ launches its key feature, ‘Hangouts on Air’ back in 2011. While, it was initially only available to some video-cast personalities; with time, it gained increasing prominence. Finally, the tool was made publicly available.

However, from next month onward, this feature will no longer be available on Google+. Users will have to use YouTube Live for a similar broadcast in real-time experience.

In order to broadcast online with YouTube Live, you will have to create a ‘Quick event’ or a ‘Custom event’ using the YouTube Live’s Creator Studio tool. You can choose to go live immediately or schedule one for later.

It seems like the company will ensure no leaves un-turned when it comes to moving away from Google+.
