ATEM Control vs Backup Power Log

ATEM Control is a control surface for an ATEM switcher on your network. Cut the program, mix the audio, and shade cameras from an iPhone that stays awake for the whole show. SWITCHER Choose Program or Preview, then cut or take an auto transition. Route a source to an auxiliary output. On a switcher with two mix effects, work ME1 and ME2 from the same panel. Eight source buttons follow the tally: red on program, green on preview, amber when a source is on both. Hold a button to assign a different input, and add a photo so you can find it in the dark. Media players, color generators, color bars, black, upstream keyers, and downstream keyers are on the same screen. AUDIO Faders for the switcher mixer, classic or Fairlight. Set each input Off, On, or audio-follow-video, and watch the meters while you ride the level. Master can follow fade to black. Mute the monitor. Headphones have their own level. CAMERA Shade Blackmagic cameras through the switcher: iris and auto iris, pedestal, gain, shutter, ND, white balance, and tint. Camera buttons use the same program and preview tally as the switcher. Lock the panel when the show is live. Tally stays visible, and the buttons stay put until you unlock. ATEM Control talks only to the switcher address you enter. It does not stream or record. It is an independent app and is not affiliated with Blackmagic Design. Requires an ATEM switcher on the same network. iPhone, iOS 15 or later.

Backup Power Log is a practical generator maintenance and outage readiness app for homeowners, cabin owners, RV owners, small property managers, and anyone who depends on backup power when the grid goes down. When a storm or utility outage starts, the question is simple: is the generator ready, how much fuel is available, when was it last tested, and what should be checked next? Backup Power Log keeps those answers in one focused place. Track the details that matter: - Generator run tests and real outage runtime - Fuel refills, estimated fuel on hand, and expected runtime - Oil changes, service notes, parts, costs, and maintenance dates - Service due status based on your last service and interval - Readiness checklist items for storm and outage prep - Local reminders for test runs, service due dates, and fuel checks - Calendar history showing which logs happened on each date The Status view gives you a quick readiness snapshot: fuel estimate, runtime estimate, maintenance state, recent activity, checklist progress, and a clear Next Action so you know what to do before the next outage. The Logs view keeps all run, fuel, and service records editable. If you enter the wrong date, runtime, fuel amount, or note, you can fix or delete the entry and the app updates totals, readiness, and history immediately. The Equipment view keeps generator settings organized, including fuel tank size, fuel level, hourly fuel use, service interval, and location details. Premium users can track multiple generators or locations separately, such as home, cabin, RV, rental property, or battery station. Use Backup Power Log for: - Weekly or monthly generator test runs - Pre-storm fuel and maintenance checks - Tracking fuel stabilized before storage - Recording oil, spark plug, air filter, and battery service - Keeping repair notes ready for a technician - Leaving clear generator status for family, tenants, or property staff - Building a maintenance history before selling or servicing equipment Premium is a one-time purchase. It removes ads and unlocks deeper preparedness tools: - Multiple generators and locations - Location-specific reminders - Full outage readiness checklist - Generator handoff report for family, tenants, or technicians - PDF and CSV maintenance binder exports - Cleaner long-term records for repair visits, property files, resale, and seasonal prep Backup Power Log is local-first and does not require an account. It is built for quick checks, fast logging, and practical records you can actually use when power reliability matters.
