Shoplive Studio App Guide
- Print
Prepare and broadcast live commerce on-site, with your mobile device only — no PC required.
Service Overview
ShopLive Studio is a broadcasting tool for sellers that brings broadcast creation, detailed configuration, and list management — previously available only in the PC admin — into the app. Sellers on-site can now handle the entire flow, from broadcast preparation to going live, using only a mobile device, with no PC needed.
Where the previous Studio app was limited to broadcasting shows created in the PC admin, ShopLive Studio now handles every step — from preparation to broadcast — within a single device. The app and PC admin sync in real time and bidirectionally, so information stays consistent even when multiple operators work together.
What’s Changed
The operational flow, once split between PC and mobile, has been consolidated into one. The table below shows the differences between the previous Studio app and the new ShopLive Studio at a glance.

The PC Admin Remains in Place
ShopLive Studio does not replace the PC admin. Managing many broadcasts, detailed reporting, and similar tasks are still better suited to a PC environment. The point is to add the option of mobile-only operation, so operators can choose the right environment for the situation.
Recommended Use Environments
The impact of adopting ShopLive Studio varies depending on staffing structure and how broadcasts are run. It delivers the greatest value in the following environments.
Solo or Small-Scale Sellers
SMB · D2C brands
No dedicated broadcast staff; the seller personally handles both hosting and operations.
Environments where setting up a PC is itself an operational burden.
→ Lower the barrier to entry with mobile-only operation.
Teams Looking to Broadcast More Often
Mid-market · growth-stage brands
Considering scaling from 1–2 broadcasts a week to 3–5, but the PC setup process becomes a bottleneck for every broadcast.
→ Increase broadcast frequency by cutting setup time.
Influencer & Creator Sellers
Individuals or small teams
Handle appearing, hosting, and setup all themselves, and need a light, flexible operating tool.
→ A simple workflow that completes in one app.
Enterprise Support Operations Teams
Large e-commerce · home-shopping subsidiaries
Separate from the head-office PC operations team, support staff need to launch broadcasts quickly on-site.
→ Speed up decision-making while running in parallel with the PC admin.
Key Features
Every feature in ShopLive Studio is designed around a single direction: app-standalone operation. New and improved features are shown below.

Campaign detailed setup | NEW | Configure title, date/time, description, tags, replay settings, and preview image/video in the app. |

Real-time bidirectional sync with PC admin | NEW | Edits in the app are reflected in the PC admin immediately, and vice versa. |
Admin mode | NEW | Separate from the broadcaster, an admin can independently manage products, chat, and overall operations during a broadcast. |
Mobile product management | NEW | Add or delete products and change their order from mobile, even during a broadcast. |
Mobile broadcasting | NEW | Complete everything from rehearsal to starting, running, and ending a live broadcast in one mobile app. |

UI/UX renewal | improved | Screens redesigned around core actions to reduce mistakes and confusion mid-broadcast. |
💬 Are all features available only in the app?
No. The newly added campaign creation and management features also exist in the PC admin. The app extends part of the PC admin's functionality to the mobile environment, and both environments share the same data in real time.
