Apple’s Keynote app will remove the Live feature and officially recommends using FaceTime

In an official support document updated today, Apple said that subsequent versions of the Keynote app will remove the Keynote Live feature.

This feature allows users to play presentations over the Internet during Keynote lectures. Attached is the feature described as follows:

You can use Keynote Live to play your presentation over the Internet so that everyone to whom you grant access, no matter where they are, can view the presentation on their device at the same time. As the presenter, you can control when the presentation starts and stops.

The users you invite to view the presentation can do so on a Mac or Windows computer, iPhone, iPad, or other mobile device.

Viewers need a web browser or the latest version of the Keynote Presentation App on a Mac (with macOS Sierra 10.12 or later), iPhone (with iOS 10 or later) or iPad (with iOS 10 or iPadOS 13 or later). iCloud accounts are not required.

Apple recommends sharing Keynote presentations in apps such as FaceTime, Zoom, and WebEx, and outlines the process in the log.
