How to Make a BRB Screen People Don't Leave On

A good Be Right Back screen keeps your audience parked while you step away. Here's how to design one that holds attention.

Breaks are inevitable โ€” dead air during them isn't. A warm, animated BRB screen keeps your stream feeling alive while you grab water.

Keep it animated and on-brand

A looping scene with gentle motion beats a frozen image. Every pack includes a matching BRB screen so your break still looks intentional.

Add music and a timer

Lofi plus a 'back in 5' note tells viewers it's worth waiting.
