With Synctrain you can securely synchronize files with other devices that have Syncthing installed. You can choose to synchronize full folders, or choose specific files. With Synctrain you can also stream audio and video files from other devices. When you synchronize files, all changes, including deleting files, also happen on your other devices. Do not use Synctrain for back-up purposes, and always keep a back-up of your data. You decide with which devices you share which files. This also means the app makers cannot help you access or recover any lost files. This app is powered by Syncthing. This app is however not associated with or endorsed by Syncthing nor its developers. Please do not expect support from the Syncthing developers. Instead, contact the maker of this app if you have questions.

About

VISP

Features
Read full description

VISP lets you go live from your iPhone to Twitch, Kick, or YouTube. Choose your camera and microphone, set your stream quality, and start broadcasting. You can send one phone feed to multiple platforms or route it into your own OBS setup. Keep up with your stream while you’re live. Read chat and viewer counts, edit your stream title, and check your connection status in the app. Optional Wi‑Fi and cellular bonding helps your stream stay connected when one network drops. You can also add live captions, control a paired OBS session, and show a “Be right back” card if your feed is interrupted. VISP creates and securely stores a publishing connection for your phone, so you don’t have to paste a stream key to get started.
