What Size Should a Twitch Alert Be? (2026)

The correct twitch alert size is commonly 800x300 pixels. Here's the full spec, the file rules, and how to make it look sharp.

The exact size

A twitch alert should be commonly 800x300 pixels. Alerts are usually built around 800x300; keep text inside the middle 80% so nothing gets clipped.

Getting it sharp

Match the alert art to your overlay so every follow feels on-brand. Design at the largest size and let the platform scale down - upscaling a small file makes every edge soft. If you're making emotes, badges or channel-point icons, our free resizer exports every required size from one image, with a preview of how it reads small.
