This targeted approach yielded strong results in core developed countries, where MAUs grew 3.4% year over year and 3.7% quarter over quarter, and paying users increased 9.1% year over year.

For example, Bigo Live fine-tuned its content recommendation algorithms to better facilitate content sharing within same-language regions and expand cross-regional content flow between highly interactive markets.

In the last quarter, Bigo Live successfully hosted the third season of “BIGO’s Most Talented”, featuring categories in Music, Dance and Beauty Pageantry.

During the quarter, Likee elevated its user experience across its core markets through enhanced content quality, interactivity, and community engagement.
