Dashboard

Your control room

Switch scenes, watch the preview, go live and record with a tap.

  • Stream, record, replay buffer, virtual camera - start and stop from anywhere in the room, save a replay or take a screenshot.
  • Recording tools: pause, split into a new file or drop a chapter marker (OBS 30.2+).
  • Scenes with studio mode, a T-bar and your transitions - and a live preview that plays them the way OBS does.
  • Profiles, scene collections and hotkeys without touching the keyboard.
  • Vertical canvases (OBS 32.1+) - see their scenes and sources, and run Aitum Vertical's own stream and recording.

Audio & sources

Every fader. Every source.

Mute, adjust and hide anything in your scene while you're live.

  • Live volume meters for every input and a one-tap mute, plus balance, sync offset and monitoring.
  • Show, hide and lock sources in any scene - in the colors you gave them in OBS 32.
  • Filters and text on the fly: switch filters on and off, tweak their settings, fix a typo in a text source.
  • Media controls for the clips and sounds in your scene: play, pause, restart and scrub.

Combined chat PRO

All your chats. One feed.

Twitch, YouTube and Kick in one timeline. Read, reply and moderate.

  • Native chat for Twitch, YouTube and Kick, on their own or in one timeline - replies land on the right platform.
  • A full moderation toolkit: delete, timeout and ban everywhere, plus AutoMod, unban requests and chat modes on Twitch.
  • 7TV, BTTV and FFZ emotes, an emote picker, autocomplete, badges, highlights and search.
  • Never miss a supporter: an activity feed for your own channels - follows, subs, raids, cheers, Super Chats and KICKs in one list, with a to-thank queue for your shout-outs.
  • Hear your chat read out loud while you play, in each message's own language if you like.

Free includes Twitch, YouTube, Kick and Owncast chat in its own tab and next to your controls while you're live.

Statistics

Know how it went

Live stats while you're on air, plus the history of every stream and recording.

  • Stream health at a glance: FPS, CPU, memory, bitrate and dropped frames.
  • Every session saved with charts, so you can look back at what happened when.
  • Favourites, sorting and filters for the streams worth keeping.

Phone & tablet

Built for the big screen too

Side-by-side layouts on tablets, with preview, scenes and chat on one screen. A focused cockpit on your phone.

Customisation

Make it yours

Studio Mode, extra controls, hotkeys, themes and your own dashboard order.

  • Turn features on and off so the dashboard only shows what you use.
  • Reorder the dashboard to match how you run your show.
  • Themes built in, and your own custom themes with Pro.
  • Screen stays on while you run your show, if you want it to.

Setup

On air in a minute

OBS Studio 28 and later has everything built in. There's no plugin and no companion app on your PC.

Turn on the WebSocket server

In OBS, open Tools → WebSocket Server Settings and enable it. Note the password if you set one.

Join the same network

Put your phone or tablet on the same Wi-Fi or LAN as the PC running OBS.

Connect

OBS Blade finds OBS on your network by itself. You can also scan the QR code from Show Connect Info, or enter the PC's IP address and port (default 4455).

Guides

Get more out of your setup

Step-by-step guides, from the first connection to a tablet on your desk replacing dedicated hardware.

Setup

Control OBS from your phone

WebSocket server on, app installed, connected - in minutes, plus the fixes for when it isn't.

Read the guide → Hardware-free

Turn a tablet into a stream deck

A screen you already own, showing what a button box can't: live state, meters, stats and chat.

Control OBS over the internet, safely

Privacy

What leaves your device

Almost nothing. OBS Blade talks to your OBS directly over your own network. Here's the complete list.

Purchases

RevenueCat gets an anonymous ID and your purchase history, so Pro works across reinstalls. There are no accounts and no custom user ID.

Kick sign-in & events

A small relay swaps Kick's login code for a token and hands it back. It keeps nothing. With Pro, a second relay keeps your own channel's Kick follows, subs and KICKs for 7 days so the activity feed can catch up - switch it off anytime.

Chat

Goes straight from your device to Twitch, YouTube or Kick when you use it, and never through us. Emotes (7TV, BTTV, FFZ) and recent Twitch history load from those services, and you can switch them off.

Analytics, crash reports, ads, tracking

None.
