Once they cycle is over, all elements used through the Advanced Overlay Maker will no longer be available. This means you will not be able to use the overlays and widgets that you’ve created.
If you choose to restart your subscription, your previously customized resources will be instantly available.

We think the Advanced Overlay Maker can be used by beginners and advanced users. If you use Streamlabs OBS, we think it’s a great addition to your streamer toolkit.
We have always wanted to make a product for our long time customers as well, and we think this is the start of that. With the ability to mix and match, customize colors, and translate text, this app is perfect for anyone who wants to creat on-brand overlays, all while having the option to use any new themes or widgets as they’re released.
If you’re happy with our store items, and a one-time purchase, great! We’ll continue to put our best effort into that as well. But this app may not be for you.
Maybe. We currently have plans for widgets that won’t be easy to distribute and setup easily, without the Streamlabs OBS platform. Our goal is to provide products that are unique, innovative, and easy to use.
