Getting started: how to add Twir to your channel
Twir runs in the cloud, so there is nothing to download. Log in, enable the bot and it joins your chat in under a minute.
What you need
You only need an account on one of the supported platforms: Twitch, Kick, VK Video Live or YouTube. Twir is free, and all features are available right after you log in.
Everything is configured in the dashboard on twir.app: commands, timers, moderation, overlays and integrations. Moderators of your channel can be given access to the dashboard too, so they can manage the bot without your password.
How to add the bot
Log in to twir.app
Click Log in and choose your platform: Twitch, Kick, VK Video Live or YouTube.
Enable the bot
Open the bot status menu in the top bar of the dashboard and enable the bot for your channel. The menu also shows the name of the bot account.
Make the bot a moderator
Give the bot account moderator rights in your channel. Without them the bot cannot delete messages or time out users, and on Twitch it may not be able to send messages at all.
Check that it works
Type !uptime or !followage in your chat. If the bot answers, everything is set up.
What to set up first
- Commands
- Create a few commands for your socials, schedule or PC specs, or use the built-in ones like !uptime and !followage.
- Timers
