Can I control streams from my phone?

YouTube & Monetization
5 Questions answered
How long should a stream run to count watch hours?
For monetization, keep streams under 12-18 hours. After the stream ends, make the recording public — hidden or deleted recordings lose all watch hours. Streams under 12 hours are processed most reliably by YouTube.

Does a 24/7 stream affect YouTube monetization?
No. 24/7 live streaming is fully allowed by YouTube and does not negatively affect monetization. Many creators use it specifically to accumulate watch hours faster. Keep streams under 12 hours for the most reliable processing.
What happens if YouTube goes down temporarily?
Loopify detects the disconnection and automatically attempts to reconnect. You receive a Telegram notification. Once YouTube is back, the stream resumes automatically.
What streaming quality does Loopify use?
Quality depends on your source video. Loopify uses zero-loss streaming mode — your video is delivered to YouTube exactly as uploaded, without additional processing. Supports 720p, 1080p and 1440p+ in all standard bitrate ranges.
What video formats are supported?
Any format: MP4, MKV, AVI, MOV and more. We convert to YouTube-optimized H.264 automatically.
Stream Protection
5 Questions answered
What is a dedicated IP and why does it matter?
Loopify gives each stream a stable per-stream network identity when the server network supports it. Pro and higher plans can see the assigned dedicated IP in the Dashboard. Network isolation reduces cross-customer coupling but does not guarantee against YouTube enforcement or external network issues.
Pro and higher plans can see the assigned address in the Dashboard. When assigned, Loopify keeps the stream’s network identity stable across normal restarts.
Which plans show a dedicated IP?
Dedicated IP visibility is included with Pro, Studio and higher plans. Eligible plans can see the assigned dedicated IP directly on the Dashboard.
What does Dedicated IP add for my YouTube stream?
Dedicated IP gives eligible plans a visible, persistent per-stream address and clearer network isolation. It can reduce exposure to unrelated traffic from other customers, but it does not guarantee against YouTube enforcement or channel restrictions.
Can I edit a playlist while the stream is already live?
Yes. Streams running on the Live Playlist engine can add, remove and reorder videos without stopping the YouTube publisher. The current video finishes first, then the next transition uses the updated playlist. A live playlist must always keep at least one valid video.
Changes apply after the current video. The stream stays live.
Why does the 12-hour YouTube limit matter for 24/7 streams?
YouTube says streams longer than 12 hours may not be archived at all, and DVR rewind can also be limited on very long streams. Continuous 24/7 streaming and preserving separate YouTube archives are different goals, so Loopify documents this trade-off clearly.

Technical
5 Questions answered
What happens if the stream crashes?
Loopify Guardian monitors all streams. If an issue is detected, the stream restarts automatically in seconds.
Does Loopify restart the stream automatically?
Yes. Loopify Guardian monitors all streams every 10 seconds. If an issue is detected, the stream restarts automatically. After 5 consecutive failures, the stream is paused and you receive a Telegram notification.

What is a dedicated IP and why does it matter?
Every stream on Loopify runs through its own unique IP address. This means your channel is completely isolated — if another user has issues, your streams stay safe. On Pro and Studio plans, you can see your dedicated IP right on the dashboard. The IP is assigned automatically and stays the same even after restarts.
