PUNGE SCANS YOUR PHOTOS AND VIDEOS FOR SENSITIVE MEDIA — PRIVATELY, ON YOUR DEVICE. No uploads. No cloud. No one ever sees your media but you. Using advanced on-device AI, Punge automatically detects explicit or sensitive images and videos in your camera roll, so you can review, delete, move, or organize them before they end up somewhere they shouldn't. WHY PUNGE? Scans both photos and videos using on-device AI. Your media never leaves your device — 100% private. Detects sensitive content across your entire library, filters by confidence level and content type, and lets you delete or move flagged media in bulk. ALL PROCESSING HAPPENS LOCALLY ON YOUR DEVICE. PUNGE NEVER ACCESSES, TRANSMITS, OR STORES YOUR MEDIA EXTERNALLY.

CTD Live Mobile turns your iPhone or iPad into a fast, tactile remote control for OBS Studio. It connects to the OBS WebSocket server (obs-websocket 5.x, built into OBS 28 and later) and lets you run a live production from across the room — no extra screen, no clutter on your stream machine. Built for streamers, AV operators, houses of worship, classrooms, esports, and anyone who runs a multi-camera show in OBS. REQUIRES OBS STUDIO CTD Live Mobile is a remote control. It does nothing on its own. You need OBS Studio (free, open source) running on a separate Mac, PC, or Linux machine, with the WebSocket server enabled under Tools → WebSocket Server Settings. Your iPhone or iPad and the OBS machine must be on the same network. CONNECT IN SECONDS • Scan the QR code from OBS (Tools → WebSocket Server Settings → Show Connect Info) with your camera, or • Enter host, port, and password by hand. • Supports obsws://, ws:// (plaintext), and wss:// (TLS) connections. LIVE MULTIVIEW • A grid of live thumbnails for every scene, refreshed over the socket. • Tap a scene to preview it or cut it straight to air. STUDIO MODE, DONE RIGHT • Full preview-to-program workflow with a dedicated TAKE button. • Hold to quick-cut a focused angle directly to air, then release. STREAM & RECORD CONTROL • Start and stop streaming. • Start and stop recording. • Live stream and record timecode and on-air status at a glance. AUTOMATION • Build scene playlists and trigger rules to automate sequences. • Map scenes, cuts, recording, and audio mute/volume to controller buttons. FULL GAME-CONTROLLER SUPPORT • Drive the show with an Xbox, PlayStation, or MFi controller (GameController framework). • Steer a yellow focus ring with the d-pad or stick, then cut or preview with a button. • Custom button bindings and an on-screen controller help map. DESIGNED FOR THE DEVICE • The deck measures your screen and picks a layout shaped for it — a phone upright, a tablet upright, or either of them turned on its side. • On iPad it runs in Split View and Slide Over, so the deck can sit beside your rundown, your chat or a timer. • Ready for folding screens: it reflows as the phone opens and closes. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no sign-up, no analytics, no ads, no trackers. • Collects no personal data of any kind. • Talks only to the OBS server you configure. Settings and OBS passwords stay on your device. Camera access is used solely to scan the OBS connect-info QR code. Local Network access is used solely to reach your OBS server on the LAN. Note: OBS Studio is a third-party application and is not affiliated with or endorsed by CineTech Digital.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Punge at Free against CTD Live Mobile's $1.99. Punge also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (16 vs 26.0). CTD Live Mobile's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 9) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.
