Sorry for lack of details in my previous issue. I meant is there a way to stream on facebook bypassing creating app on facebook.developers.com: http://i.imgur.com/p1TPWRE.jpg . I have some issues with this, and just tryna find a way to solve it. P.S. question is not only about hansemannn/facebook-live-ios, but generally about fb streams. Thank you

You can bypass creating a Facebook app if you take out the login functionality in facebook-live-ios and use it only as a video coder.

You would have to create a stream key from Facebook and implement a way to retrieve the key within the ios app and set the appropriate properties.

Is it legal? ) I read fb docs and they are clear about mobile streaming apps - they are forbidden. Thanks anyway!

Forbidden only if it uses a mobile device camera. External cameras are okay.
