The Twools Control Room is a web page, twools.app/control_panel, that the streamer opens with their account on a phone, a tablet or a second screen. It shows one card per widget to start a timer, add a point, ask chat a question or show a widget, without touching the streaming software.

The Control Room shows a card for each widget in your scene. On a timer: "Start", -30 s and +30 s. On a counter: "+ 1" and "− 1". The card's eye takes the widget off air or puts it back, and the star plays its burst.

On the quiz card, "Start the vote" opens the round: your Twitch chat votes by typing its answer. The card counts the votes. "+ 10 s" and "+ 30 s" extend the time, "Stop" closes the vote.
