You can now use ‘@’ to mention a specific person in the studio private chat to make sure they see your message.

When focused on their stream, people don’t always see private messages straight away.

That’s why now, if you need someone’s attention urgently, you can use ‘@’ to mention their name, and your message will show up as a prominent banner at the top of their screen.

Here’s how to use ‘@’ mentions:

1. When in the studio, open the Private chat tab in the right-hand banner.
2. In the new message textbox, type the ‘@’ symbol, then begin typing the display name of the person you want to mention. Their name will appear in a pop-up list.
3. Click on their name, or press enter. It will appear in your message in bold.
4. When your message is sent, the mentioned user will see it as a banner in the middle of their screen.

Like all private chat messages, ‘@’ mentions are only visible to people in the studio, not viewers.

📍Available on all plans.
