58 looks, one link

Modern (Clean, Glass, Gold, Cyberpunk, Holo HUD), Retro (LED, split-flap, Nixie tubes, dot matrix, pixel Arcade, handheld LCD, VHS, a bevelled desktop), Showtime (Neon, theatre Marquee, rolling Jackpot reels, Comic), Chill (Lo-fi, Sakura, Ocean, Cosmos, Campfire), Seasonal, Game night and IRL. Transparent over your game, or a full animated scene.

Knows what OBS is doing

Restarts a break countdown when its scene goes live, counts uptime from the moment you press Start Streaming, and keeps a subathon’s finish time through reloads, crashes and restarts.

Driven by your community

Add time from the keyboard, a Stream Deck or Streamer.bot on every sub, cheer or donation, with a “+5:00” that floats up on screen so chat sees their impact.

Every overlay, ready to go

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these stream overlays really free?

Yes. There is no account, no watermark and no TimerHub branding on your stream. The overlay is a web page OBS draws as a browser source, and everything it needs is in the link you copy.

Which streaming apps do they work with?

Anything with a browser source: OBS Studio, Streamlabs Desktop, Meld, Twitch Studio, vMix and XSplit. The OBS-specific extras — restarting when a scene goes live, uptime from Start Streaming and remote commands over obs-websocket — need OBS Studio 28 or later; elsewhere the overlay falls back to counting from when the source loads.

Will an animated overlay slow my stream down?

The overlays are small pages that animate with CSS, which OBS’s built-in browser handles comfortably on most streaming PCs. If your machine is already at its limit, choose a transparent background with a still theme such as Clean, Glass or LED.

Can I run several timers at once?

Yes. Every browser source runs on its own, so you can have an uptime pill in one corner and a BRB countdown on another scene. Give each one its own overlay ID if you save state or send remote commands.

Are the Game night themes official game overlays?

No. Raid, Heist, Arena, Tactical, Storm and Matchday take their mood from the genres people are streaming most this month — fantasy MMOs, open-world crime, MOBAs, tactical shooters, battle royales and football — with original artwork. They use no game’s name, logo or typeface and are not affiliated with any game or publisher.

Do my viewers need to install anything?

No. The overlay is part of your video, so it appears on Twitch, YouTube, Kick or anywhere else you stream, on every device.

Overlays load in OBS’s Browser Source. Test your scene before going live. Timing a talk or a lesson instead? Make a timer video or embed a timer on a website.
