Hey guys just a message to say any overlay expert issues pls reach out to them via their discord discord.gg/RTpFWeEgd7 I am not an expert with this and only used it once for this video so I can't really help you with any issues you might have that are not covered in this video. Thank you for understanding!

I greatly suggest you add somewhere here that people watching your stream from mobile cannot see your overlay or alerts. I spent a great deal of time adding these updates to my stream just for most of my community to not be able to enjoy them..

OMG I LOVE YOU, I only have an Xbox and haven’t had money for a laptop for over 2 years and counting, I appreciate this so much ❤️

You're an absolute star for explaining all this! I can only stream through my PS4 and this is going to make my streams look so much better. Thanks for all the advice you give.

Subscribed so interesting seeing if there are overlays and alerts to Xbox One as currently can't use OBS Xsplit etc and can only stream via Xbox One itself
thank you i just started yesterday and need to find out some stuff about making my streams better tsm
Okay, I followed this and I love how helpful it is! I loved using the Overlay Expert! The only problem I have is after I finish streaming none of my overlays stay, the video just is completely void of any of my brb screens, my borders, stream starting soon, chat convo corner, everything. Is there a way to fix that for my next stream?
Thank you dear that really helped me out on twicth
Ahh tysm this is the only video that helped me and was custom made instead of using a edited overlay! You just earned a sub😁😁
thanks for the help with your video

Thank You for the help... it was frustrating
hi there i’ve tried to select my overlay as the final step however i can’t select it is there any way to resolve this issue?

hi ,i cant sing in and edit overlay in overlay expert. this is what it said "Aw, snap! Something went wrong while trying to complete your request. If the problem persists, please . USERTYPE VALIDATION FAILED: PASSPORTS.2.PROVIDER: `PATREON` IS NOT A VALID ENUM VALUE" Do you know why?? its really frustrating i cant edit and save changes.
Thank you thank you thank you
I'm learning 🙂
Wait after I finish the follow alert do I just save it and it will work on my streams or what do I do?
On the overlay expert one how do you make it show up on mobile it shows up on my computer but not my phone
Whaaats up. Overlay Expert is not showing up when watching a past video. Does it only show during live stream?
So I do not have a computer to access overlay expert and was wondering if there was another way or platform that will let me access it such as mobile,Xbox and PS4
I ❤️ U. Thanks much.
With the Overlay expert is it possible to allow the streamer to hear the alerts through there headset do you know ?
Thank you ! How would the streamer hear the alert or do they just have to keep an eye out ? Sorry don’t know much about this stuff

It’s so hard editing on overlay expert along with applying it, can anyone help me or dumb it down for me?
Please help, whenever I activate my overlay it just appears as a black screen on stream and I don’t know what to do
you seem like a cool person to just sit down and have a coffee with
For people who are gonna use overlay expert. It won't show up for viewers on mobile. Please keep that in mind
Can my viewers see my overlay while there watching me or is this just for me to see while i'm streaming?
