Social Rotator Widget
The Social Rotator Widget gives each social profile its own moment on screen, cycling through your platforms in a compact animated card instead of filling your layout with several static icons. Its cute, minimal style works especially well for cozy gaming, Just Chatting, kawaii setups, Starting Soon screens, BRB scenes, and creators who want to promote their socials without distracting from the main content.
What can you customize?
Social profiles: Add multiple platforms or use the custom social option for another destination.
Usernames: Set the @username shown for every profile.
Rotation timing: Control how long each social stays visible before the next one appears.
Colors: Match the widget to your stream by changing the text, icons, background, and decorative elements.
How does it work?
The widget is built for StreamElements and includes a one-click setup link, a built-in customization panel, and a setup guide. After customizing and saving it, you can use the StreamElements overlay URL as a Browser Source in OBS Studio or Streamlabs. The same setup can promote your profiles while you stream on Twitch, YouTube, Kick, Facebook, or another platform supported by your streaming software.

QR Code Social Rotator Widget
The QR Code Social Rotator Widget turns your social links into rotating, scannable cards on stream. Viewers can point their phone at the screen and open an Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Twitch, Discord, website, store, portfolio, Linktree, Ko-fi, Patreon, or any custom URL you add. It is useful when you want the next step to be quick and visible: scan, follow, join, shop, or discover more content.
Display and design options
Two display modes: Show the complete social card with platform details or switch to the compact QR Only Mode.
Flexible layouts: Choose a horizontal or square format for different scenes, including vertical stream layouts.
Brand customization: Adjust colors, fonts, icons, borders, glow effects, QR styles, sizes, and spacing.
Animation controls: Set the rotation timing, transitions, animations, and decorative elements such as hearts, stars, moons, flowers, dots, circles, or sparkles.
Ready-made starting points: Begin with a color preset or create a custom palette for your channel.
Hosted setup through Widget Hub
This is a hosted widget, so there is no code, plugin, file import, or overlay download to install. Log in to the StreamSpell Widget Hub, add your profiles and destination links, customize the design, save the widget, and copy its Browser Source URL into OBS Studio, Streamlabs Desktop, StreamElements, Meld Studio, XSplit, Lightstream, or another app that supports Browser Sources.
You can return to the Widget Hub and edit the saved widget whenever your links or branding change. A Widget Hub account and an internet connection are required, and every QR code should be tested before you go live.
It can be used on Starting Soon, BRB, Intermission, Just Chatting, gameplay, podcast, watch-party, and end screens. The format is also a strong fit for VTubers, artists, book streamers, cozy creators, gaming channels, and anyone building a community beyond the livestream.
