Periscope has made a name for itself as THE app for video live streams. Meerkat can confirm. And as it also launched “couchmode” last month, it is clear that Periscope is now as much about viewing than streaming.

We are not in a position to confirm the exact functionality of the app, but it is highly likely to be focused on watching rather than live-streaming, mostly due to the limitations of what the Apple TV – which does not come with a webcam – can do.
