StreamYard can display you and your guest's chosen names under your camera on-stream! It can be up to 50 characters long and can include emojis. Your display name can be changed at any time and this article explains how to do it.
When entering the studio
On the Camera/Microphone check page, you can set your display name in the Display name field.
While in the studio
- Click the 3 dots at the top right of the person or share at the bottom left of the studio, and click Edit name.
- Type the new display name, and click Save.
- The hosts/admins of a broadcast can also change a guest's display name.
-
The display name of screen/video/slide shares does not show on-stream.
Adjusting Display Name Font Size
You can now choose from larger font sizes for your display name to give it more visibility on stream. Here's how to adjust it:
- Inside the studio, click Style on the left.
- Under Theme, make sure Show Display Names is toggled on.
- Choose your preferred Text Size.
This is especially useful when streaming on mobile, where on-screen elements appear smaller. Available on all plans.
