Mobile gameplay-recording company Kamcord has more video creators than Twitch

The accessibility of smartphones can supercharge the growth of certain technologies. And that’s what mobile gameplay-recording startup Kamcord is discovering.

The company revealed to GamesBeat that it has had 1.3 million people creating content using its technology over the last month. That’s more than the 1 million broadcasters that livestreaming gameplay site Twitch hosts. Kamcord is able to reach so many people because it makes a plug-in that developers can implement in their iOS or Android games that adds instant game-recording and video-sharing options. It requires no extra hardware or software, which is different from the experience of livestreaming content from a PC or a console.
