Not a tech wiz? No worries, Vor automatically discovers ETC Eos™ Family consoles and QLab™ sessions on your network so you don't have to fumble around with IP Addresses and OSC port numbers.

### 5/5 — One of the most vital pieces of kit

*2025-05-23*

I’m not sure how we did shows before Vor. Totally has revolutionized how my team and I handle notes during tech and preview processes.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t stay connected

*2025-05-07*

The network connection keeps dropping, with no explanations other than “an error occurred”.  Right in the middle of trying to record video.  Makes the app completely useless.

**Developer response:** We’re sorry to hear about the connection issues - we are here to help. Please reach out to support@borealis.llc and we can work together directly to resolve the issue.

### 5/5 — Invaluable

*2023-01-18*

Vor is an invaluable tool for cueing and noting both simple and complex shows. 
The mobile version offers simplicity of setup that is easily deployable to any production with a console wifi network. 
I will not do a show without Vor.

### 5/5 — So rad. Everything except the name.

*2022-11-05*

I am a vor evangelist, which means I tell everyone I'm working with all the time. At first they think I'm into weird furry cannibalistic porn. Once I explain, they recognize how great this tool is.

### 5/5 — Immensely helpful

*2022-08-22, version 1.2.1*

Really helpful app, use it for all my shows now to review with director during notes.

### 5/5 — Top Notch Tech Table Tool

*2022-07-15*

This is invaluable for those that make videos of rehearsals only to wonder what was going on with the system.  Such an easy way to check timing of cues and translate notes written in the dark and compare them to what was going on on stage.  It’s so worth the cost to have a video with the cue info in it and extra help having the regular time stamp in the video so you can remember which run through the video is from.  

Great app and use of OSC info from Eos.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.9.1 — 2026-08-07

Vor Mobile v1.9.1 is a targeted bug fix version providing fixes and improvements in many areas.

### 1.9.0 — 2026-06-29

We're excited to introduce Vor Mobile v1.9.0: a major release that brings full support for iOS/iPadOS 26, updates to layout mode, a Timecode Action, a brand new Events view, and Bonjour discovery. There's a lot here, and it all builds on the foundations laid in v1.8.

This is the biggest Vor Mobile release to date. The bulk of the work in v1.9.0 went into closing the gap between Vor Mobile and Vor, and almost every display has been touched in the process. If you've been using Vor Mobile as a lightweight alternative to Vor, v1.9.0 is the version where it stands fully on its own. Be sure to check out the Vor v1.9.0 release notes too.

With iOS/iPadOS 26, Vor Mobile has been refreshed to align with the new system design language. iOS/iPadOS 26 is fully supported.

Layout Mode gets a serious upgrade in v1.9.0. You can now multi-select Widgets and edit shared fields: labels, colors, fonts, and more at once. We've also brought Stacking tools to the quick menu so re-ordering is quicker on the go. Need to push the type slightly larger than a preset allows? Vor Mobile now supports completely custom font sizes on every text Widget.

v1.9.0 introduces full Camera Controls for the first time. Tap anywhere on the Video Preview to focus and expose on that point. Touch and hold to set an Auto-Exposure and an Auto-Focus lock or open up the Adjustments section in the Inspector which now gives you direct manual control over **Focus**, **Exposure**, and **White Balance**.

For Shutter and ISO, pinning lets you hold one as the fixed anchor while the other adjusts automatically to maintain exposure, or leave neither pinned and control both values yourself directly.

In Actions, v1.9.0 introduces a brand new Timecode Action. Trigger Vor Mobile to start, or stop a recording when timecode is received. You can limit the action to specific time ranges so it only fires when you want it to. Timecode Actions are a powerful companion to ensure you never miss a cue.

The all new Events View captures and surfaces events in the Inspector while you work. Need to know exactly why a recording stopped? It's all there, ready to be reviewed. Events are designed to make troubleshooting faster, and to give you a clearer story of what actually happened inside Vor Mobile.

Setting Vor Mobile up on a network just got dramatically easier. Vor Mobile now advertises itself via Bonjour, so other devices that support Bonjour discovery can find it without typing IP addresses or ports. The advertisement also broadcasts each instance's Actions ID and the OSC version, so even less configuration is needed.

We're also thrilled to bring native support for Emtech Nexus into Vor Mobile. You're now able to subscribe directly to a Nexus automation console display playback and IO information with three brand new Widgets.

Because Vor Mobile gets carried around, we've also made the app safer to leave running unattended. Vor Mobile will now gracefully stop recording when the device's battery falls to **10%**, so the output file is safe, rather than truncated if your device shuts down.

Vor Mobile v1.9.0 also marks the beginning of a larger localisation effort. The app has been fully localised into English (UK), with additional languages coming in future releases.

As always, we've resolved a long list of bugs, including:

- New Widgets default to the first relevant Connection, removing one of the small bits of friction in building a layout from scratch
- Composition sizing now displays the correct resolution
- Duplicating a Composition, Widget, Connection or Actions Source is now consistent across the app
- Copying a Widget into another Composition now correctly preserves all properties

v1.9.0 is a big step forward for Vor Mobile: a clearer picture of what your system is up to, a more refined experience, and powerful new tools for the people who push Vor Mobile the hardest. We can't wait to see what you build with it.

We're excited to see what you build next with Vor Mobile v1.9.0!

### 1.8.0 — 2025-05-27

We’re excited to introduce Vor Mobile v1.8.0: a major release anchored by a completely reimagined layout engine that brings the customization power of Vor into the pocket of users worldwide. This update sets the stage for even more powerful features ahead, and we can’t wait for you to experience them.

At the heart of v1.8.0 is the updated layout engine - a front-to-back overhaul of how widgets are placed, adjusted, and positioned on the incoming video. Now with the ability to align multiple widgets, and to adjust their sizing it’s possible to bring granular precision to where the information is shown.  Whether you’re building a simple layout or creating a complex setup, the new engine gives you the flexibility and control you need.

This improvement also paves the way for more consistency from Vor to Vor Mobile and opens up a host of exciting changes to layout customization. And, with the new Compositions feature it’s possible to change the layout while recording - even remotely via OSC.

We’re also thrilled to bring native support for grandMA3 into Vor Mobile. You’re now able to connect to grandMA3 directly and display information with three brand new Widgets:
- grandMA3 Cue Widget
- grandMA3 Elapsed Widget
- grandMA3 Master Widget

With v1.8.0, we’ve also focused on user experience enhancements, including simplifying the permissions requests when installing or updating Vor Mobile, and adding sleek new dark and tinted icons. We’ve also added support for iOS/iPadOS 18, and the privacy permissions that come with those.

As always, we’ve resolved bugs, including:
- Fixed image picker issues in the Static Image Widget
- Custom widget bubbles now render correctly after style changes
- QLab Active Cues, Playhead, and Latest Widgets refresh more reliably

The new layout engine is an exciting update to Vor Mobile, and with grandMA3 support and a host of improvements across the board, this version delivers serious power for all designers, programmers, and technicians.

As always, check out the full documentation for deeper dives, and don’t forget to hop into our Discord community to share feedback, ask questions, or show off your newest layout.

We’re excited to see what you build next with Vor Mobile v1.8.0!

### 1.7.0 — 2024-08-07

We are excited to announce the release of Vor Mobile v1.7.0! This update represents a significant leap forward, introducing the first-ever native QLab integration to the market, connectivity with Absolute Motion Control devices, an update to the STS connection, and numerous bug fixes and quality of life enhancements.

The largest and most powerful new feature in v1.7.0 is the QLab integration. Getting started with QLab is quick and easy as all QLab devices are automatically detected on the network, and displayed in Preferences. This means there's no need to fumble with IP addresses, or ports. Using a passcode to keep your QLab session secure? That still works with Vor; just put the passcode in, and you're good to go.

Paired with the QLab Connection are four different widget types. The most powerful is the QLab Active Cues Widget, which will make QLab users feel right at home. The Active Cues Widget shows up to 10 active cues, including their play/pause status, cue iconography, and timing information. There are a number of configuration options, including the ability to only display top level cues, a progress bar, and play/pause state. Want to limit the number of active cues to 5 cues? That's possible with a customizable range of 1 to 10 cues. This is the most powerful addition to a QLab user's toolkit in a long time, allowing designers and technicians to cue their shows, and troubleshoot even quicker.

The next QLab widget is the QLab Playhead Widget, showing not only the current position of the QLab Playhead but also timing information, and the continue mode status. This widget displays what cue is currently selected by the playhead on a cuelist by cuelist basis, but also has a flag to show the previously selected cue providing even more context. As with many things in Vor, the style is customizable on a widget by widget basis and the QLab Playhead Widget is no exception.

Finally, the QLab Latest Widget allows you to get incredibly specific - dive down to a specific cue list, and cue type to see what was most recently triggered. Want to see the most recent MIDI cue, and adjust timing based on that? Want to see when the last MIDI message was sent to the lighting department, or to an external control interface? This widget allows for that, and pairs well with the QLab Latest Elapsed Widget, which follows the same logic and provides the same features as all the other Elapsed widgets.

Another added integration is with Absolute Motion Control's automation controller. This brings three new widgets, including the Absolute Motion Control Cue Widget, which displays cue numbers, labels, and playback states. This integration also brings to the table the powerful Absolute Motion Control IO Widget which displays the status of various devices including e-stops and safety mechanisms. This IO Widget is fully user configurable allowing Vor to meet the needs of productions all over the world.

Finally, there have been a number of quality of life improvements which are detailed in the full Vor Mobile v1.7.0 release notes.

We are continually striving to improve Vor Mobile, and this update is another testament to our goal of providing the industry with top levels tools in an accessible manner. We encourage you to dive into our full documentation for more detailed information on these features. Don't forget to join our community on Discord, where you can find support, share tips, and experiences with Vor Mobile v1.7.0.

We look forward to your feedback and are excited to see how you use these new features!
