How to set it up

  1. 1

    Connect your YouTube channel

    Sign up for free and connect YouTube from the dashboard so Trigglow follows your live chat.

  2. 2

    Design your alerts

    Set up the Super Chat alert and the member alerts (new, milestones and gifted) from animated templates or your own files.

  3. 3

    Add the overlay to OBS

    Copy your overlay URL from the dashboard and paste it into OBS as a 1920×1080 "Browser" source. One source covers every alert and platform, nothing to install.

    Check that it all sounds right

    Fire a test alert and adjust the source volume in OBS.
