Pheed was topping the chart when it came to mobile streaming of videos. It was the first app that lets you stream live events directly to your mobile device so you can access cool entertainment from anywhere. What made them so unique was the option of pay-per-view streaming. You can download the application to iOS and Android mobile devices, RSVP to an event you’d like to attend, and tune in when the event goes live. In addition, Pheed lets you have a monetized account so you can broadcast an event, stream a movie or show, or share a track with your friends and fans while promoting your brand. The app is free to download. But the service has been discontinued.
Internet entrepreneur OD Kobo launched Pheed in 2012 but sold the short-lived technology to Mobli Media Group in March 2014, which shut it down entirely in April 2016. The Pheed website encourages users to check out the company’s flagship Galaxia app for iOS and Android mobile devices. The Galaxia app is home to mini social networks, but it does not include pay-per-view streaming.

Getting Started With Pheed
To get started with Pheed, just download the application from the App Store or Google Play using your mobile device. Then, sign up using your Facebook, Twitter or email account. You can upload a background image to your profile page and add a few lines about yourself.
You’ll also have the chance to rate your channel so other Pheed users know which content you normally access. Then, you can subscribe to channels of other Pheed users and broadcasters so you are tuned in to the latest events.
The Pheed User Interface
Pheed has a similar user interface to other big social media networks like Facebook and Twitter.
The app is divided into four major sections: the home screen, search function, create a new pheed, and notifications. The home screen shows you all of the events, broadcasts, and updates from the channels you subscribe to. The search section lets you discover media by browsing through pheeds, channels, and the latest trending hashtags. The notification section lets you know if your friends and channel subscriptions have posted any new content so you can keep up-to-date with the latest happenings.
Create A New Pheed – Make a Post
To create a new pheed, use the post icon in the main menu bar. Then, you’ll be able to write a text update, share a picture or video, share a live broadcast, or record an audio track for your update. The Pheed function comes equipped with a copyright stamp so you can mark your original content to build your brand. When you’re satisfied with your Pheed, you can post it so that other Pheed users can check it out. Using Pheed with your Facebook or Twitter account is a great way to integrate your social media tools while having the ability to post branded audio and video files. You can configure your Pheed posts to automatically connect to your other social media accounts so that all your friend groups have access to your posts.
Monetize Your Account
If you’re using Pheeds to build your brand or to stream live events for other users, you’ll want to monetize your account. To do this, access your account settings page by clicking on the icon on the right side of the menu bar. Choose how much you want to charge your viewers to access your account—you can charge a monthly subscription fee and also charge a pay-per-view amount for specific broadcasts. Pheed has to approve your account before it’s monetized, after which you can set up a payment account to receive funds from your fans.
The Pheeds monetized account is a great way for independent artists, musicians, video makers, and comedians to share their creativity while getting payback for their efforts.
In addition, the Pheeds model allows fans to contribute to their favorite sources of entertainment while having almost unlimited access to fresh content on the go.
Any money you earn on Pheeds is added to your account balance. You can add your bank details to your user profile to receive your earnings in your personal bank account. After the account is set up, you receive 50 percent of any monthly subscription fees paid to Pheed by your viewers.
Pheed is a great social media tool for building your brand, sharing live broadcasts, and attending live events. Do you want to incorporate your social media presence with your creative pursuits, and monetize your content? Pheed is a great place to start.
