The Streamlabs App Store is a catalog inside Streamlabs Desktop where you can find and install third-party apps for your streaming workflow. It is not a general marketplace for broadcasting software, and its apps are not the same as Streamlabs widgets: Streamlabs says App Store apps are currently exclusive to Desktop, while most widgets work in Desktop and the Streamlabs Plugin for OBS. Check the live listing for current app availability and access terms.

What is the Streamlabs App Store?

Streamlabs describes the App Store as a built-in library of “dozens” of apps from third-party developers. You browse the catalog, install apps, manage them, and add app sources to scenes from within Streamlabs Desktop. The catalog is intended to extend a creator’s workflow with tools for interaction, design, automation, analytics, and other streaming tasks. See the Streamlabs App Store.

Streamlabs says apps are reviewed by its team for functionality and safety before being listed. The catalog is illustrative rather than a guarantee that every app category or named example will have a current listing.

What kind of apps are available in the App Store?

Streamlabs names a range of possible uses. Examples on its App Store and Desktop help pages include:

Elebase USB to USB C Adapter for iPhone 18 Pro Max,USBC Car Charger Adapter
  • Read Before You Buy — No Video Output: These adapters support charging and USB 2.0 data transfer, but cannot transmit video signals. Except for standard USB webcams (which use USB data only), they are not compatible with HDMI/DisplayPort cables, video-capable USB-C hubs, or docking stations with video output.
  • Convert USB-A Ports to USB-C: Designed to connect USB-C earphones, cables, flash drives, card readers, and other USB-C accessories to standard USB-A ports. Plug-and-play with no drivers or software required.
  • Aluminum Alloy Housing: Built with a sturdy aluminum alloy shell that aids in heat dissipation and protects against daily wear and scratches. Designed to maintain a stable and secure connection.
  • Compact & Travel-Friendly: The ultra-compact design allows the adapter to stay plugged into your device without blocking adjacent ports or adding bulk, reducing wear and tear on your original USB ports.

  • Audience interaction: viewer games, polls, chat interaction, and mini-games.

  • Monetization and sponsorship: features related to viewer support or sponsorships.
  • Stream utilities: timers, stream-safe music, sound alerts, and game stats.
  • Channel insights: analytics and audience-growth tools.

These are examples, not a verified inventory or a ranking. To choose an app, check its current listing for what it does, whether it is free or requires Ultra, how it fits your Desktop setup, and where its developer provides support. Streamlabs’ Getting Started with Streamlabs Desktop also gives examples such as stream-safe music, design improvements, and viewer interaction.

How are apps different from widgets?

Where can you use apps from the App Store?

App Store browsing, installation, and management happen in Streamlabs Desktop. Streamlabs says the store and installed apps are pinned in Desktop navigation, where you can discover apps, manage installations, and add app sources to scenes. Streamlabs also says cloud storage can carry apps to a new PC; that does not establish that every third-party app saves all of its settings or data in the cloud.

How to install an App Store app

  1. Download and open Streamlabs Desktop. Use the current Desktop download and setup instructions in Streamlabs’ getting-started guide.
  2. Open App Store from Desktop navigation.
  3. Choose an app and review its description and access terms.
  4. Install it. Find the installed app in Desktop to manage it or add its source to a scene.

This follows Streamlabs’ published quick-start flow: download Desktop, open the App Store, choose an app, and install it.

Are App Store apps free to use?

Access is mixed. Streamlabs names Sponsorships and Sidekick as examples of free apps and says most apps are exclusive to Streamlabs Ultra subscribers. That general description does not establish the current terms of any particular app. Check the individual listing and Streamlabs Ultra guidance before relying on an app being free or included with a subscription; the cited pages do not establish a current Ultra price.

How can a developer add an app to the App Store?

Streamlabs directs prospective developers to its platform site: log in with Twitch, create an app, submit the App Store application form, and wait for next steps. Streamlabs says its team reviews apps before they are made available; submitting an application is not a guarantee of acceptance. Start from the App Store page.

How do Talk Studio integrations fit in?

“Integrations” can also refer to connections in other Streamlabs products, but those are not automatically App Store apps. For example, Streamlabs’ Talk Studio guide covers Cloudbot moderation, tipping, alerts, and live chat widgets. Its setup uses the studio’s Apps button, Streamlabs connections, tip methods, and Alert Box customization. Those Talk Studio instructions describe that product’s integrations, not a claim that every integration is listed in Desktop’s App Store. See Talk Studio Integrated Apps.

Keeping a YouTube channel live around the clock is a different job

The Streamlabs App Store is for extending a streaming workflow inside Desktop; it is not the service described below for looping uploaded video as a continuous YouTube live stream. If your specific goal is to keep a YouTube channel live from uploaded recordings, StreamNeo is a separate cloud service from Yorker Media. Upload a recording or build a playlist, add your YouTube stream key once, and go live. Its cloud handles looping, so your computer and home connection do not need to remain on.

StreamNeo streams to YouTube only and plays uploaded videos; it does not broadcast a live camera feed. Each slot includes one always-on stream, 10 GB of storage per slot pooled across active slots, playlists and 24/7 looping, automatic recovery if YouTube drops the stream, and StreamNeo team support. The uploaded video streams as made, up to 4K 60fps, with no re-encode or quality tiers.

StreamNeo offers a free first day with no card, once per account. Plans are available for a day, a week, a month, six months, or a year, and can be canceled any time. India-based customers can pay with UPI or cards; card checkout is available worldwide. Contact support about five or more slots. See StreamNeo plans.

Daily $0.99 per day · Weekly $2.99 per week · Monthly $9.99 per month · 6 months $49.99 for 6 months · Yearly $89.99 a year.

Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

Or let it run in the cloud

Upload your video or playlist, add your YouTube stream key, and go live. Your computer can stay off; StreamNeo supports uploads up to 4K 60fps at one flat price per slot and automatically recovers if YouTube drops the stream. The first day is free with no card. Monthly: $9.99 per month. Start your free day with StreamNeo.
