The default tab is called “Play” and it is where users can type their text-to-speech message. They can additionally select the language as well as gender that they want to use to speak their message. Once they have typed out a message and selected their language & gender, they click the Submit button. The extension validates the message and ensures that it does not contain any profanity. After the message is deemed appropriate, Megaphone extension initiates a bits transaction and once the user confirms, the text-to-speech message is played on each of the viewer’s streams for that channel. Also, a chat message is sent to the chat room to inform users on who sent the current broadcasting message.
The leaderboard tab ranks the viewers who have spent the most bits broadcasting messages to the channel.
The settings tab allow users to adjust the volume as well as mute the broadcast messages.
The broadcaster can configure how many bits to charge per message. Additionally, the broadcaster can input specific words they wish to add to the blacklist to be prevent from being included in any text-to-speech message.
