How to Use Stream Poll Master

Create a poll in seconds, share a voter link or QR, and display live results on your stream with a simple Browser Source. Optional: manage everything inside OBS using a Custom Browser Dock.

Fast workflow

No viewer accounts. Live results. Quick styling.

Prerequisites

  • OBS Studio or Streamlabs with Browser Source support.
  • A modern browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari).
  • Optional: QR code display on stream (we generate one for you).

Step-by-Step

  1. 1

    Create your poll

    In the dashboard, add a question and choices. Save the poll to get your links.

  2. 2

    Share with viewers

    Copy the voter link or show the generated QR code so anyone can vote—no sign-in required.

  3. 3

    Add overlay to OBS/Streamlabs

    Add a Browser Source and paste the Overlay URL. Results update live.

    Overlay URL
    https://streampollmaster.com/overlay/%7BPOLL_ID%7D
    Recommended size: 800×450 to 1280×720 (scale to taste).
    Set “Refresh browser when scene becomes active” if you hot-swap scenes.
  4. 4

    Manage inside OBS (Custom Browser Dock)

    OBS → ViewDocksCustom Browser Dock… → Paste your dashboard URL → Dock it anywhere.

  5. 5

    Quick styling

    Pick a font and set bar colors. Enable Swap bars by votes to auto-sort results for clarity.

Troubleshooting

Ensure the poll is live and the Browser Source has network access. If using scene transitions, check “Refresh browser when scene becomes active.”

Set the Browser Source to the same base resolution as your canvas (e.g., 1920×1080) and enable “Rescale” only if needed.

Use HTTPS and make sure the URL is reachable in a normal browser. Some plugins block third-party cookies—try disabling them for the dock.
