Built by the original TAK development team, this app brings enterprise-grade tactical streaming to the iOS platform. FEATURES: • Real-Time Video Streaming - RTSP and SRT protocol support - Configurable endpoints (address, port, path) - Real-time bitrate monitoring and adaptive streaming • Sit(x) Platform Integration - OAuth 2.0 authentication - Video feed publishing with stream alias management - Location-based CoT broadcasting with GPS coordinates • Professional Camera Features - Tactical grid overlay on camera preview - Camera filters (Greyscale, Sepia) - Orientation detection and indicators - Status indicators for streaming and connection state WHO IS IT FOR?: Sit(x) Streamer is designed for tactical and operational teams who need reliable, location-aware video streaming in the field: • Military & Defense Operations • Law Enforcement & SWAT Teams • Emergency Services & First Responders • Search & Rescue Operations • Security & Surveillance Operations • Incident Command & Crisis Management • Any team using Sit(x), GvStreamer, or TAK Server TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS: • iOS 16.0 or later • iPhone or iPad with camera • Network connection (WiFi or cellular) • RTSP/SRT-compatible streaming server TERMS OF USE/EULA: https://documents.sitx.io/terms-of-use PRIVACY POLICY: https://documents.sitx.io/privacy-policy MORE INFO: https://sitx.io/

Kompressed gives you a byte budget instead of a quality slider, then finds the best photo, video, voice memo or data file that fits inside it. For every link that was never meant to carry pictures. WHEN THE CONNECTION IS THE PROBLEM Hotel and campground wifi, a shared satellite terminal, one bar of LTE, a Meshtastic mesh, HF, packet, Iridium SBD. On a link like that, a 4 MB photo is not slow — it never arrives. Kompressed makes it 24 KB and tells you how long that will take to send. Flying on slow WiFi on an airline but want to get the data out, Kompressed can help you with that. Say the size three ways: pick a radio and a transmit window and let the arithmetic hand you the budget, type a plain 200 KB, or set quality and bitrate by hand. Then it works backwards. Stills binary-search encoder quality to land just under the budget, giving up resolution only when quality alone cannot get there. Video encodes, measures, corrects and re-encodes until the file actually fits — because a bitrate setting is a request, not a promise. MESHTASTIC AND OTHER TINY LINKS Ships with presets for Meshtastic thumbnails, VARA HF recon photos, Iridium SBD single bursts and a one-QR handoff, so a net can agree on one set of numbers and export them as JSON. Text armor sends numbered Base64 blocks with a CRC, so the far end knows block 7 of 12 never arrived and asks for exactly that. Reed-Solomon FEC packets cover one-way links where there is nobody to ask. QR covers phone to phone with no network at all. TAK Results can even leave as an ATAK data package — a MANIFEST and a CoT event built from the photo's own EXIF position — so the picture lands on the map at its coordinates instead of in a downloads folder. One tap of the share sheet reaches ATAK, iTAK, TAKAware, Messages, AirDrop or Files. NOT JUST PHOTOS GPS tracks 246 KB to 2.0 KB with waypoint names intact. Telemetry and CSV 211 KB to 12 KB, cell for cell identical. Scanned pages 414 KB to 3.5 KB. Screenshots, short reports, any other file. Every package is decoded again and compared against the original before a ratio is allowed to be the headline. EVERYTHING RUNS ON THE PHONE No upload, no account, no server, no network calls of any kind. It works in airplane mode, in a valley, on a boat. What you compress never leaves the device until you choose where it goes — which is the point, on a connection even if it is the thinnest of IP pipes.
