Developer Updates

Let your community drive you crazy with Visuals & Sound Alerts!

Why just stream when you can scream and meme? Create funny (or even viral) stream interactions AND monetize those epic moments as a Twitch affiliate with our free Visuals & Sound Alerts! Works for Twitch affiliates and Non-affiliates.

What exactly can the Visuals & Sound ⁠Alerts extension provide?

Visuals & Sound Alerts is an extension for all Twitch streamers that allows viewers to trigger visual effects and sounds (via browser AND in the Twitch smartphone app). These visuals & sounds are played in the stream and on the streamer's monitor thanks to OWN3D Desktop Overlay.

Your viewers take control, influence your stream and create memories. Imagine being immersed in your favorite game, and suddenly viewers seize the opportunity to scare, distract you or make you laugh at the worst time possible. Your genuine reaction will create amazing clips and community interaction!

Why is Visuals & Sound Alerts THE extension for all Twitch streamers

With the free Twitch extension Visuals & Sound Alerts, you can ensure that your community will play an essential role in your stream. Thanks to the interaction possibilities of the extension, your community will be involved in your stream. At the same time, you can earn Bits as a Twitch affiliate playfully and amusingly.

Even new streamers can benefit from the interaction possibilities of the Visuals & Sound Alerts extension. This means that you can add good value with this extension to your community even if you're not a Twitch affiliate. So Visuals & Sound Alerts are also a good support for anyone who aspires to become a Twitch affiliate - or simply wants to involve the community more in their stream.

Once your viewers see that their actions affect your stream, they will genuinely get the feeling of being part of your stream. Together, you'll create moments you'll never forget!

So with the ability to actively involve your viewers in the stream, create funny moments, and earn Bits as a Twitch affiliate at the same time, this extension is a must-have for any streamer!

How is Visuals & Sound Alerts different from other sound & effects extensions?

The OWN3D Desktop Overlay app makes the difference. You download the OWN3D Desktop Overlay app and install it on your PC. Once you've enabled visuals & sounds for your community on www.own3d.pro, added the extension browser sources to your broadcasting tool, and set Visuals & Sound Alerts as a panel on Twitch, you're ready to go.

Your viewers will see the extension on Twitch (browser and mobile) and can choose from the many visuals & sounds you have enabled for them. We provide over 350 effects and over 20,000 sounds to choose from right from the start. You can also upload your own sounds.

Your community can trigger the visuals & sounds for free, with Bits or channel points, depending on what you set. As soon as someone from your community triggers visuals & sounds, these effects will be played DIRECTLY on your monitor - not only in your broadcasting tool! But you can still control and use everything on your monitor. The visuals are like a mask over your game without interfering with the controls.

Jump Scares preprogrammed - and therefore viral clips as well

Imagine you're exploring the open world of your favorite game, and suddenly a dragon flies across your screen, briefly setting it ablaze. Or you're fighting a boss, and a stun grenade lands on your monitor just as the boss attacks you. Or you're in the middle of a horror game, the atmosphere is tense, and suddenly a ghost appears on your monitor. Imagine the jump scare - and the funny clips!

Afterward, you can share these clips wherever you want. Who knows, maybe one or two clips will boost your streaming career!
