Repeating timers
Run any event on a clock, for social reminders, hydration checks and idle reactions.
A repeating timer runs an event every few minutes, with no viewer needed. Use it to remind chat where to follow you, to take a sip of water, or to give your model something to do when things are quiet.
Make a repeating timer
Start a new event
On the Events tab, click New Event.
Choose Every few minutes
Open Event Type and choose Every few minutes.
Set how often
Next to Run every, use the minus and plus buttons or type a number from 1 to 240. The quick picks set 5, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minutes in one click.
Add what it does
Under Do this, add the steps, such as Speak text with your reminder, then click Add Mapping.
A line under the fields says in plain words what will happen, such as "Runs every 15 min. The first run comes one interval after you go live, never straight away."
Add a random extra
Random extra adds up to that many minutes at random before each run. Every 15 minutes with a random extra of 5 runs somewhere between 15 and 20 minutes apart, so a reminder doesn't land like clockwork. The extra can't be longer than the interval itself.
Run only while you're live
Only while I'm live is on for every new timer.
The countdown runs only while you are in your TikTok LIVE room or connected to Twitch, Kick or YouTube, and starts over each time you connect. The first run comes one interval after you go live.
The countdown starts when Vfinity opens or when you switch the event on. The first run comes one interval later.
Know what pauses a timer
- Pause: a run that falls while Vfinity is paused is skipped, not saved up, so resuming never sets off a burst of reminders. The countdown carries on to the next run.
- Panic: every timer's countdown starts again from the top.
- Editing: changing Run every or Random extra starts the countdown over. Changing the steps leaves it running.
- Switching off: an event that is off stops counting.
Find your timers
Each timer's row shows how often it runs, like Every 15 min or Every 15–20 min, and Live only when it waits for your stream. To see only your timers, choose Repeating timers from the filter at the top of the Events tab.
Steps can use {minutes} to say the interval out loud.
Start from a recipe
Two recipes use this trigger: Socials reminder runs every 15 minutes, and Hydrate reminder every 30. Pick one, change the line to your own words, and save it.
