? What's the meaning of this? This guide will help you setup BTTV and FFZ, and enable the best emotes for your channel.
BetterTTV and FrankerFaceZ are browser extensions which enhance the desktop Twitch experience. They can be installed and configured independently without conflict. They offer some overlapping features.
The most fun benefit they offer is extra emotes. These are emotes that non-subbed viewers can use in your chat without needing a subscription.
After installing BTTV, access the settings via the chat settings menu:
From there, search the settings for emote
; enable BetterTTV Emotes

, FrankerFaceZ Emotes

You don't need to install FFZ to just see the emotes, but it has other useful features.
Go to the FrankerFaceZ and select Connect with Twitch

to continue.
You will land on an empty "My Submissions" page. To add emotes, go to the top navigation bar, click Emotes
, and then click Public Library
