The FrontFace Remote Control App allows to remotely control a FrontFace digital signage player PC with your mobile phone or tablet. To use this app, it is required that you have installed the Remote Control Plugin for FrontFace within your FrontFace project. It is also required that your mobile device is in the same (local) network as the FrontFace player PC that you want to remote control. The Remote Control App can start, pause, and stop playlists or touch menus on a FrontFace player PC, turn playlist pages back and forth, fill in text placeholders when starting a playlist and perform basic system operation tasks such as changing the audio volume level of the player PC and shutting down / rebooting the player PC.

SVX Portal is a fast, focused companion for the SvxLink SvxReflector network. Point it at your reflector domain and instantly see who's on the air. LIVE LAST-HEARDS Watch a real-time list of stations as they key up. Active talkers are highlighted with a live timer; past stations show how long ago they were last heard. LISTEN IN Tap a talkgroup to listen to live, low-latency Opus audio โ one talkgroup at a time. The compact, sliding Listen bar stays out of the way so the last-heards list keeps centre stage. Switch on background listening to keep audio playing when you change apps or lock the screen. MAP See repeaters and hotspots on a clean map, colour-coded by status โ online, transmitting, hotspot, or offline. Tap a station for its details (TX/RX, CTCSS, location) and centre the map on your own location with one tap. Overlapping stations fan out so nothing stays hidden. SIMPLE SETUP Everything is driven by a single reflector domain. Talkgroup names are fetched automatically and the audio stream is configured for you โ no accounts, no clutter. MADE FOR YOUR DEVICE โข iPhone and iPad โข Choose your orientation: Auto, Portrait, or Landscape โข Keep-screen-on option for the shack or mobile SVX Portal is built for licensed amateur radio operators using SvxLink-based reflector networks. It's a receive-and-monitor companion โ listen, watch, and explore your network at a glance.
