Tango LIVE Glossary
15 terms covering Tango lives, gifting, recording, and TangoRec features.
- Tango LIVE
- The live-streaming feature of the Tango app, where creators broadcast in real time and viewers can watch, chat, and send virtual gifts.
- TangoRec
- A cloud Tango live recorder delivered as a Telegram bot. It watches creators on your watchlist and automatically records their live streams, sending the full MP4 to your Telegram chat.
- Watchlist
- Your personal list of Tango creators that TangoRec monitors 24/7. When a creator on your watchlist goes live, recording starts automatically.
- Gifts
- Virtual items viewers buy with in-app currency and send to creators during a Tango LIVE. Gifts are the main way creators earn money on the platform.
- Coins
- The in-app currency on Tango. Viewers purchase coins and spend them on gifts for creators during live streams.
- Diamonds
- The earnings creators accumulate from receiving gifts on Tango. Diamonds can be converted back into real money through the creator payout program.
- Multi-guest
- A Tango LIVE mode where several creators broadcast together in the same room, each in their own video tile.
- PK battle
- A competitive live format where two creators face off and their viewers send gifts to help their favorite win within a time limit.
- Moderator
- A trusted viewer a creator appoints to help manage chat during a Tango LIVE — muting, removing disruptive users, and keeping the room friendly.
- Replay
- A saved version of a past live stream. Tango does not always keep replays available, which is why TangoRec records lives as they happen so you never miss one.
- Manual /rec
- A TangoRec command that starts recording a creator's current live on demand, without first adding them to your watchlist.
- MP4 delivery
- How TangoRec returns a finished recording: the full video file is uploaded straight to your Telegram chat at original stream quality, with no watermark and no expiry.
- Contact sheet
- A grid of thumbnails generated from a recording, delivered alongside the MP4 so you can preview the stream at a glance.
- Public archive
- Recordings from other users' watchlists that any TangoRec user can browse and open for free, available at /latest and on each creator page.
- Telegram bot
- The interface for TangoRec. Everything — adding creators, receiving recordings, managing your plan — happens inside a Telegram chat, with no separate app to install.
