About this app

This app allows you to remotely control OBS Studio and Streamlabs Desktop from your phone or tablet.

OBS Studio: This app requires OBS Studio version 28 (or above) to be installed on the host computer you want to control. Camera permission is required to scan the QR code from OBS.
• Download OBS Studio: https://obsproject.com
• Need to find your IP address? Follow this guide on your computer: https://www.whatismybrowser.com/detect/what-is-my-local-ip-address
• An automatic network scan feature is also available to find the host computer within the local network.
• Still can't connect? Try checking your firewall settings on the host computer for the obs-websocket connection port (default: 4455)

Streamlabs Desktop: This app requires camera permission to scan the QR code from Streamlabs Desktop. Streamlabs Desktop is limited to what the API supports, so features such as video preview and text editing will not be available.

Good app, however I find myself having to restart my phone constantly due to getting a connection tomeout message. Mainly after putting my PC to sleep and waking it up again. Firewall is OK and I've tried other fixes online, and also clearing all data and cache in the app, but phone restart is the only solution. Also cannot add icons. App says storage permission denied, but I can't add it in setting (android app settings). Did you forget it in the app manifest?

Great UI, wonderful design, easy to use. It has all i need for someone starting out. One thing i wish it had would be support for YouTube livestream chat and not only Twitch, i dont know if that's because of some technical things or maybe YouTube doesn't allow it, I don't know anything about that stuff. Apart from that small thing it's an amazing app!

Looks good, feels good to use. I use it to control obs while recording, so I don't have to have obs open all the time or awkwardly having to move the my mouse in recordings to switch scenes or toggle sources. One point of critic would be, that I had to pay for no ads on each device I use this app on, but its not to expensive, that I would call it unfair. One nice feature would be to select the scenes shown in the app. Just a list where you can toggle the visibility of scenes shown in the app.

What’s new

• Renamed app to StreamCtrl
• Added support for obs-websocket v5/OBS 28
• A bunch of other changes (many parts of this app were completely rewritten, so hopefully nothing major is broken/missing...)

NOTE: This app still supports obs-websocket v4, but v4 is now considered deprecated and support may be removed in the future. It is recommended to update to obs-websocket v5/OBS 28 to continue receiving support."
