How do I set up my Twitch Viewer Bot?

Welcome to your Twitch Viewer Bot Set-up Guide! This guide will take you through each step so you can effortlessly configure and customize your viewbot to boost your Twitch presence.


Step 1: Set Your Viewer Count

Start by deciding how many viewers you want to add to your stream.


  • Choose Your Viewer Number: Enter the total number of viewers you'd like for the stream.
  • Tip: Keep the number realistic for your channel size to maintain a natural appearance.


Step 2: Configure the Drip Rate (Optional)

The Drip Rate controls how quickly or slowly the bot viewers join your stream, creating a natural flow.


  • Minimum Drip Rate: The shortest time between each bot joining.
  • Maximum Drip Rate: The longest time between each bot joining.


Example: Setting a Minimum Drip Rate of 2 seconds and a Maximum Drip Rate of 8 seconds will cause bot viewers to join randomly within that range, simulating a gradual crowd buildup.


Step 3: Use the Instant Join Toggle (Optional)

Decide if you want all bot viewers to join instantly or gradually.


  • Instant Join ON: All bots join your stream immediately, giving an instant viewer boost.
  • Instant Join OFF: Bots join gradually, following your configured drip rate.


Tip: Use Instant Join for a quick crowd effect or keep it OFF for a more natural, gradual increase in viewers.


Step 4: Toggle the Viewerlist (Optional)

Control whether bot names appear in your Twitch viewer list.


  • Viewerlist ON: Bot names are visible in the viewer list, giving the impression of active viewers.
  • Viewerlist OFF: Bot names are hidden. This option is ideal if you're using a chatlist to have bots actively participate in chat.


Tip: Turn Viewerlist ON for passive viewers or OFF if you want interactive bots using a chatlist. For detailed instructions on setting up your chat bot and chatlists, check out our How Do I Set Up My Twitch Chat Bot help desk article.


Step 5: Start the Viewbot

Once you're satisfied with your settings:

  1. Click the Start Viewbot button.
  2. The bot will begin sending viewers to your stream based on your chosen configuration.


Example:
If you configure 5 bots with a drip rate of 1–5 seconds, each bot will join randomly within that interval. This creates a consistent boost to your viewer count while maintaining a natural appearance.


Enjoy using your Twitch Viewer Bot to grow your audience and enhance your streaming experience!
