Ad Timers

Ad Timers are a feature that notifies your chat when a Twitch ad break starts and ends. The alerts are sent for both automatic (scheduled) and manually-triggered ad breaks. This is useful for streamers who want to keep their chat informed about when ads are playing. The start and end messages can be customized to fit your channel's style.

Ad timers are off by default.
