FAQ

YouTube live sub count FAQ

How do I see a YouTube live sub count?+

Paste a YouTube handle, channel URL, or creator name into the tool. It fetches the current public subscriber count YouTube exposes and refreshes the comparison board automatically.

Is this an exact subscriber count?+

No. YouTube rounds public subscriber counts, and the official public API follows that same policy. This tool tracks the public count, not the creator-studio total.

Can I compare channels like PewDiePie vs T-Series or MrBeast vs Dream?+

Yes. Add multiple channels and the board will rank them by current public subscriber count so you can compare them side by side.

Does this work for OBS or a live sub count clock overlay?+

Yes for simple browser-source use. Open the tool in a browser source or capture the tab in OBS to show a live-updating public subscriber count board.

Why is the YouTube live sub count not working for some channels?+

Some channels hide subscriber counts, and some URLs or names are harder to resolve than direct handles. For the best result, use an @handle or full channel URL.

Can I use this for top YouTube channels too?+

Yes. It works for large channels and creator comparisons, as long as the channel has a public subscriber count and YouTube can resolve the handle or URL.
