Gift interactions during livestreams are designed to create engaging real-time experiences for both viewers and creators. When a gift is sent, several things happen simultaneously: the gift animation plays on screen, a message appears in the live chat showing the sender's username and gift details, and the creator receives a notification.
The platform uses tools for real-time messaging, ensuring minimal delay between gift sending and display. Different gift types have unique animations - static gifts show briefly, while animated gifts play their full sequence. The interactive nature of gifts encourages viewer participation and creates a more dynamic streaming environment where creators can acknowledge and thank their supporters in real-time.
