### 5/5 — Clean,Easy, and Simple

*2026-03-30*

Using OBS 32, this app worked right out of the box. I understand earlier versions of OBS require a web socket, but my installation did not require it. I downloaded the app, opened it up, connected it easily to OBS by scanning the network, and that was it. I’ve used it a few times now and have encountered no issues. Simple is better than complex!

### 3/5 — can't work with obs v31.0.3

*2026-03-15*

I have turned  websocket server on, port 23456 and no  password，but all methods don't work. QR code, scanning for obs, and manual input ipv4 ipv6 addr

### 1/5 — Sadly doesn’t work for me at all

*2025-09-17*

Even more sad is being ignored by Support. No shade intended, I just don’t get an answer to my mail to Support :(

I have an iPhone SE 2020 and when i try to Scan the QR code, it instantly claims it‘s not a valid code. Connecting manually gives „unknown error“.

Pls help :/

I'm using OBS 30.1.2, whenever I go to Websockets and try to scan the QR Code it just tells me that the qr code is invalid. Please fix.
