About
Satellite Surface Remote turns an iPhone or iPad into a button surface for Bitfocus Companion. It connects over Companion's Satellite API, on your own network, and shows your Companion buttons live.
Built for control rooms, live events, streams, churches, schools and AV booths — anywhere you run a show from Companion and want one more set of buttons in your hand.
WHAT IT DOES
• Connects to Companion as a Satellite surface (WebSocket, port 16623 by default)
• Live button text, colour and press state from Companion
• Tap or hold to press; page up and down; current page shown
• Remembers your last Companion and connects on launch
• Multi-Instance (in-app purchase): save several servers, switch between them right on the surface, and on iPad run two surfaces at once
• Auto reconnect when Companion restarts
• Choose the grid: rows, columns, text size
• Optional button artwork, or text-only for the fastest updates
• Optional advanced layout with encoder controls
• Diagnostics: latency, uptime, reconnects, Companion version
• Landscape layout for iPhone and iPad, or turn the surface upright with one tap
PRIVACY
No account. No ads. No analytics. The app talks only to the Companion server you enter. Saved servers stay on your device.
REQUIREMENTS
Bitfocus Companion running on a computer on the same network, with the Satellite WebSocket listener on.
