Emote Widgets are here — Scene Editor Beta Update

The channel emotes are a part of a streamer's branding and fuel community insiders, running gags along with the individual chat meta—to cut a long story short: Emotes are essential to your livestream. That's why we focused on implementing a variety of livestream widgets that support your favorite emotes within the current Beta of our Scene Editor. You can use these to display your emotes in three different ways. The best thing? All of the popular libraries are supported. The widgets are compatible with:

  • All emotes by Twitch
  • FrankerFaceZ
  • BetterTTV
  • 7TV
