If you utilize OBS to stream your webcam feed but all you have on there is your video feed and audio then you are missing out. The great reason to utilize OBS is there are so many fun functions and add-ons that can be added via widgets to bring life to your stream and make it entertaining and interactive. Some are helpful for encouraging tipping and chatting while others enhance the customer experience and make your stream feel more “high tech.” Here are our picks for the best OBS widgets to use as a camgirl/adult webcam streamer.

A Music Widget

Having a widget that shares what’s currently playing can be super beneficial for engaging with your customers and finding common ground on things they can relate to. If you’re already streaming your desktop audio through the OBS stream then your customer is likely getting a lovely and clear version of the song you’re listening to so they can decide if they like it; so why not display it on your screen so that they can look it up to add to their playlist if they’d like? If you use Spotify then we highly recommend NowPlaying for your music widget. It’s completely free to use and the set up isn’t too complicated.

Spinning Prize Wheel

You can encourage your customers to tip for a prize on a spinning wheel that will show live on your stream by utilizing a wheel spin widget! There are some free wheel spins available like the one on StreamDPS but there are also some premium ones that can be purchased online.

Countdowns and Timers

If you’re looking to bring some excitement to a big show you have coming up, a particular date (maybe a birthday or holiday), or simply set a timer to reach a goal then it can be super fun to put a visual timer on your stream! There are lots of free countdowns and timers available online but the one on StreamDPS is probably the easiest to set up.

Overlays and Alerts

If you’d like to build a more branded stream then having a professional looking overlay can be a huge addition to your stream! NerdOrDie offers free packs of overlays, alerts, and widgets that are ready to be loaded into OBS.

Camming Websites with OBS Integration

There are many webcam sites that are integrated with OBS to provide the best viewing experience for your customers. Chaturbate, CamSoda, Stripchat, MyFreeCams, and Streamate all offer OBS integration which allows you to enhance the quality of your stream with the functionality and tools at your disposal on OBS.
