Can you use StreamChamp for PUBG Mobile YouTube Shorts live stream?

How to live stream PUBG Mobile on YouTube Shorts with Android devices

The process is very similar to the one we followed for iOS devices. The only difference in this case will be the application used for the Shorts stream. Instead of Live Now, we will use the Turnip application to live stream from the Android device.

Once you download the application, you must log in and click on Stream Now. Then you must set up your stream as you want. The only setting you must keep an eye on is the Stream Mode. Change it from Landscape to Portrait. Doing this will let you stream in Shorts format.
