Twitter has updated its Periscope app to let you broadcast live from your GoPro.

Periscope lets you broadcast live video to the world. Going live will instantly notify your followers who can join, comment and send you hearts in real time. The more hearts you get, the higher they flutter on the screen.

Features:
[+] REPLAY: When your broadcast is over, you can make it available for replay so viewers can watch later. Viewers can replay your broadcast with comments and hearts to relive the full experience. Replays currently last 24 hours. You can delete your replay at any time.
[+] PRIVATE: If you want to broadcast to specific people, press the lock icon before going live and choose who you want to invite to your broadcast.
[+] TWITTER: You can choose to share your Periscope broadcasts on Twitter by tapping the bird icon before you start broadcasting. When you go live, you’ll tweet a link so that your Twitter followers can watch on the web (or in the app)
[+] MANAGE NOTIFICATIONS: Periscope will suggest people for you to follow based on your Twitter network. You can always follow new people, or unfollow them if you don’t want to be notified when they go live. You can also adjust notification preferences in Periscope Settings (in Profile)
[+] HEARTS: Hearts are a fun, easy way to let the broadcaster know you're enjoying the broadcast. Tap the screen to share the love!

What's New In This Version:
Broadcast LIVE from your GoPro! If your iPhone is connected to your GoPro Hero 4's WiFi, simply open Periscope and start broadcasting. During your broadcast, double tap to switch back to your iPhone. It's that simple to change cameras, giving you the flexibility to make your broadcasts even better. For more information, please go to help.periscope.tv

This version also fixes an issue where some profile images would not load.

You can download Periscope from the App Store for free.
