Frequently asked questions

What does Fire Emoji Counter actually measure?

The energy in the comment section. We read the replies on a YouTube video, weigh every emoji by how much fire it carries, and turn that into one shareable score. Not every emoji is equal β€” a πŸ”₯ is not a πŸ‘.

Is the Fire Emoji Score a percentage?

Yes. It is a 0–100 score calibrated so hot videos land in the 80s and 90s. The number you see is a percentage out of 100.

Why comments instead of likes?

Comments carry energy. People drop πŸ”₯ when something actually hits. Likes are a one-tap reaction; comments are where the real reaction lives.

What is the score badge?

Pro users can connect their YouTube channel and add a Fire Emoji Score badge directly to their video descriptions or as a pinned comment. The badge updates automatically so your audience always sees your latest score.

How often does my badge update?

Paid plans refresh daily. Studio plans can pin up to 5 videos for hourly refresh. Creators get 1 free hourly pin to try it out; after that, hourly pins are available as an add-on.

Why would I pay for Fire Emoji Counter?

Free scoring is fun, but Pro turns your comment section into a live scoreboard on your own channel. Your audience gets a new way to participate β€” they can push a score you chose to highlight β€” and that score updates automatically in every badged video.

Can I customize what gets counted?

Creator and Studio plans include one custom hype emoji and one custom phrase. For example, you could count πŸš€ or the word β€œgoated” alongside πŸ”₯. Those signals feed into the same 0–100 score and show up as separate line items on the share card.

What is the difference between Creator and Studio?

Creator is for solo YouTubers who want badges, customization, and daily refresh on up to 50 videos. Studio adds team seats, more videos, bulk actions, API access, and up to 5 hourly-pinned videos.

Can I cancel or change my plan?

Yes. You can manage your subscription from your account page. If you cancel, your badges stop updating but your share links keep working.
