How these apps were chosen
This list covers apps that send an iPhone or iPad screen out live, so you can stream a game without a computer. Camera-only apps and desktop software are left out. No app was run on a device; every line comes from a vendor App Store listing, pricing page or help center read on October 21, 2026.
Five things were checked: free screen streaming, destinations at once, a watermark on free streams, a camera over the game, and guests.
EveryCord is made by Symaro, LLC, which publishes this blog, so this roundup is not independent, and each fact about another app is what its own page said on October 21, 2026.

Notes on each app
EveryCord (Symaro, LLC; version 2.5 released October 21, 2026) streams your screen to YouTube, Twitch and any RTMP or RTMPS server, up to three at once, with no watermark, no time limit and no subscription.
Larix Screencaster (Softvelum) encodes the screen for SRT, RTMP, RTSP, RIST, Zixi and WebRTC with up to three connections. Softvelum's Premium page says free streams last 5 minutes with a mandatory overlay, then stop.
Mobile Game Streamer (clement gasner, July 2025) lists Twitch, YouTube, Kick or custom RTMP, a facecam, screen and in-game audio capture. Its Pro Plan is $3.99 a week, $7.99 a month or $44.99 a year; the listing does not say what Pro unlocks.
Streamlabs is free to one platform, including Twitch, YouTube, Kick or custom RTMP. On iOS you choose screen or camera at go live; screen and camera together is an Android feature, per Streamlabs. Multistream needs Ultra, from $15.75 a month.
PRISM Live Studio (NAVER Corp.) has a Screen mode using ReplayKit on iOS. Free streams go to one channel; PRISM's plan page lists watermark, ads and outro removal and six channels as Plus features. Its guide says the front camera overlay is Android only.
The Twitch app goes live from the + button after you allow camera and microphone access. Its Creator Camp page for mobile gaming describes picking a game and tapping Stream, but neither it nor the App Store listing describes capturing the phone screen.
The YouTube app streams live for verified channels with at least 50 subscribers and no live restrictions in 90 days. Its help page lists a Screencast option for your phone's screen and Playables that show your camera in a smaller window.
Where another app may suit you better
- Your server needs SRT, RIST, RTSP or WebRTC: Larix Screencaster.
- You use Streamlabs alerts and themes, or want up to 11 Collab Cam guests with Ultra: Streamlabs.
- You stream to SOOP, BAND or NAVER platforms, or want VTuber modes: PRISM Live Studio.
- Your channel qualifies and you want no third-party app: the YouTube app's Screencast.
Where EveryCord may suit you better
- You want screen streaming that is free with no watermark and no time limit.

- You want friends on camera: up to three co-hosts join from their own iPhones with an invite link.
- You want the recording too, with an editor, a facecam and automatic English captions.
