Alerts

What are Alerts in OBS?

Alerts in OBS refer to notifications that are triggered by certain events during a live stream. These events can include new subscribers, donations, or even chat messages. Alerts are designed to grab the attention of the streamer and their audience, and can be customized to include graphics, sounds, and text.

How do Alerts work in OBS?

Alerts in OBS are typically set up using third-party services such as Streamlabs or StreamElements. These services provide a variety of alert options and allow streamers to customize the appearance and behavior of their alerts. Once set up, alerts are triggered automatically during a live stream when the specified event occurs. Streamers can also manually trigger alerts if desired.

Why are Alerts important in OBS?

Alerts are an important tool for streamers to engage with their audience and build a community around their content. By acknowledging and thanking viewers for their support, streamers can create a more positive and interactive experience for everyone involved. Additionally, alerts can be used to incentivize donations or subscriptions by offering special rewards or shoutouts to those who contribute.
