Live Chat Emotes

About

Live Chat Emotes brings 7TV emotes to YouTube live chat.

Messages that contain a matching :shortcode: are rendered inline as the emote image, so chat looks the way it does on other platforms instead of showing raw text.

FEATURES

- Inline emote rendering — matching :shortcode: text in live-chat messages becomes the 7TV emote image.
- Autocomplete — start typing ":" in the chat input and a dropdown appears. Arrow keys to navigate, Tab or Enter to insert, Esc to close.
- Emote picker — a button next to the chat input opens a searchable grid of every emote in the current set.
- Configurable emote set — paste any 7TV emote set ID in the popup. A curated general-purpose set is loaded by default.
- Live size adjustment — a slider in the popup resizes already-rendered emotes immediately.
- No telemetry — no analytics, no error reporting, and no third-party calls beyond 7TV itself.

PRIVACY

This extension talks to exactly two places, both part of the public 7TV service: the 7TV API for emote-set catalogues and the 7TV CDN for the emote images. There is no analytics, no tracking, and no remote code. Your settings are stored locally and never leave your device.
