You can now send live videos to friends in Direct. With a single tap of the Direct icon, you can send your own live video — or a ‘live’ video you’re watching — to a friend or a group of friends to encourage them to join in the fun.
When you’re live, just tap the Direct icon at the bottom of the screen & send your ‘live’ video to friends. You’ll also have this option when going live with a friend. Once sent, the recipient will see your ‘live’ video in their Direct inbox. Friends can only view your video if you’re currently live. If your ‘live’ video is over, your friend will see a message saying the video has ended.
If you prefer, you can disable the option to send your ‘live’ videos in Direct in your stories settings. 
As a viewer, you can send a ‘live’ video to a friend in Direct the same way. While watching a ‘live’ video, tap the Direct icon at the bottom of the screen & choose who you want to send it to.
