In iOS at least, this is already possible via the built in timer - select "Stop Playing" instead of an alarm sound.

Guest Star has a lot of interesting potential and I hope to see it continue to evolve. My initial thoughts after some experimentation are as follows:
1. Guest Star should ideally allow the chosen camera to be passed through as a virtual device on the client, which could then be provided to a source in streaming software.
2. Guest Star should ideally be able to accept a guest's single webcam feed to be shared among multiple guest star sessions.
3. Unless mic audio quality is improved to a reasonable standard, I believe many users will opt to pass audio over a separate call - notably, diminishing the overall value add of Guest Star over cropped window captures of a separate video call.
4. It's my opinion that first-time guests shouldn't need a setup wizard to get started. Terms like "backstage" are fun and work well enough for the host, but terms and user flows with widespread use like "preview camera" and "test audio" could be used to greatly simplify the guest onboard process, necessary if streamers realistically want to incorporate on-the-fly use of Guest Star with viewers and community members.
5. Whether in documentation or in the context of Guest Star itself, it should be made clear what resolution(s) - and ideally bitrate(s) - are supported for the video transmission, to avoid unnecessary up- and/or downscaling resulting in loss of quality or pointless overhead. (Apologies if this exists and I have missed it.)
I am so far very pleased with the feature as rolled out but have a number of ideas that I hope will become more viable in more cases as Guest Star develops. I would be happy to provide context or otherwise flesh out any of the above if desired, but for now will opt for relative brevity.

This can currently be accomplished via StreamerBot at least, and I imagine other stream bots/software will follow suit if they haven't already.
