Getting the latest details from the App Store…
CTD Live Mobile turns your iPhone or iPad into a fast, tactile remote control for OBS Studio. It connects to the OBS WebSocket server (obs-websocket 5.x, built into OBS 28 and later) and lets you run a live production from across the room — no extra screen, no clutter on your stream machine. Built for streamers, AV operators, houses of worship, classrooms, esports, and anyone who runs a multi-camera show in OBS. REQUIRES OBS STUDIO CTD Live Mobile is a remote control.

Version 2.1.0 · 11 Sep 2026 · 1 month ago
Version 2.1.0 makes this a real iPad app, and gets it ready for a folding phone. SHARPER PREVIEWS Frames were always fetched at a fixed size chosen for a phone, however large they were actually drawn — so on an iPad you were looking at upscaled thumbnails. The app now asks OBS for the size each pane will really be drawn at, and measures again whenever the screen changes: rotate it, resize it, plug in a display. Low-spec / low-data mode is untouched, since asking for less is that mode's whole job. THE DECK FILLS THE IPAD The layout used to be picked by asking one question — is the screen taller than it is wide. That has two answers, for a range of screens running from a phone held upright to a tablet on its side. It is now picked by measuring the screen and taking the layout closest to its shape. On an 11-inch iPad that is the difference between roughly a fifth of the glass going unused and one or two percent of it, in both orientations. A fresh install on a tablet also picks its opening layout from how many scenes you actually have, so you don't start on a grid with a row of empty boxes in it. SPLIT VIEW AND SLIDE OVER The app no longer demands the whole screen. Run the deck beside your rundown, your chat, your notes or a timer — it reflows to whatever width you give it, and TAKE stays where your thumb can reach it at every size. READY FOR IPHONE DUO Built against the iOS 27 SDK. Opened out, the deck uses a new near-square layout with PREVIEW and PROGRAM side by side above a 3x4 scene grid. Closed, it uses the tall phone stack. It reflows as the phone folds, the same way it already reflows when you rotate one. A WALKTHROUGH ON FIRST LAUNCH The step everyone gets stuck on is finding the WebSocket settings inside OBS. There is now a short animated walkthrough showing exactly where they live — Tools, WebSocket Server Settings, Enable, Show Connect Info — and how to scan the code OBS puts on screen. You can scan from any slide rather than waiting for the end. Replay it any time from Settings, About, and it is offered again when you add a second OBS machine. FIXED • Adding, renaming or removing a scene in OBS could briefly leave a tile showing the wrong feed. • A tablet held upright could be given a layout built for a phone, stranding a third of the screen.
