Great App!

This app is amazing, hands down, one of the best apps I have used using OBS, the only things I would probably change or just add is the option to choose what fade to choose right from that app when switching scenes, the option to add different colors on each scene, the option to see the chat from more than just twitch and YouTube (I use restream.io, with restream, I’m able to see and chat from the desktop but I’m not always on the desktop, sometimes I’m playing piano or drums while I’m streaming) it would be amazing to have that feature available, but other than that, this app is really amazing over all. Thank you for creating this app, I highly recommend this app when streaming.

Terrible

You shouldn’t have to have OBS on a computer for you to be able to use it!!!

Works very well

Straightforward with large scene selection buttons. A "Record" command which is just as conspicuous would be welcomed. Cheers.

Thanks! I have got you covered in the upcoming update ;)

Expose the recording and pause recording buttons.

I see that you have the recording and pause recording buttons inside a menu, but it will be handy to have this tools in the main screen as three buttons: start, pause, and stop recording. Other than that the app is working flawlessly.

Great product!

Thanks for the feedback - look out for the next update :)

No comparison for the money

Blade isn’t perfect. But I think for the price, it is amazing. I’ve tested with a bunch of lab devices loaded with NDI sources. It’s a little rough on my ipad3 (which i would love to use since it’s just a switcher) but works smoothly and well on the ipad5 and 6 models. Preview video drags my devices, but works and I think on newer hardware will be great.

I would like to undock and move some parts. I wish there was a plug in function for things like ptz camera control, but again, for the money, Blade is awesome.

Best app I’ve downloaded in a long time

I have just recently got OBS studio on my MacBook Air and, as I am still waiting for my new computer and monitor, I only have one screen. This app works amazing and the preview feature worked even though it was still in beta testing. Thanks for making this, it has been so handy! I would like to see a camera feature in a future version as my iPad Pro camera is better than my webcam on my Mac. Thanks again! Kitty.

Very much appreciated! Glad you enjoy it! :))

Works great through Internet also.

Works exactly as described. I don't like folks here who have lowered ratings for absence of features that were never promised. To work remotely, such as with machine behind home router, definitely need some tech skill to do port forwarding on the router & find out public IP, works great. I like the idea to stream remotely by mobile connection from the street & control OBS that manages it remotely. P.S. Test this setup from other network, such disable wifi to cellular connection, due to port forwarding may not forward internal calls.

Thanks, appreciate it! :)

Good for Streaming

Very good app, however the stream preview never works which is the one thing this app lacks to be honest

Response from developer

I‘m aware of that and have to wait for OBS itself to fix this! You can track it here: https://github.com/Kounex/obs_blade/issues/3 Is going to get fixed soon™️!

Too technical

Don’t understand how it works, doesn’t work on iPad and trying to understand hurts my brain, not for me need better streaming service on iPad! Not worth to support go away!

Response from developer

Did you follow the intro slides and installed the WebSocket? For example: if you are using OBS on windows, you want to download „obs-websocket-4.8.0-Windows-Installer.exe“ found on https://github.com/Palakis/obs-websocket/releases under Assets (just scroll down). After that your iPad should find your OBS instance on its own. Sorry to hear you had those difficulties. Otherwise you will surely find another tool which fits your needs! :)

Works great!

Clean and simple interface. It works! Thanks for this. It’s very useful when you’re streaming or on camera and you’re a little distant from your streaming computer running OBS.
