Turn your iPhone or iPad into a custom control deck for your Windows PC or Mac. Put app-volume faders, OBS controls and macros together in Custom Modes. BUILD YOUR DECK Arrange and resize blocks, use a template or start with your own layout. Free includes one mode with up to six blocks, two assigned audio apps and six saved macros. Pro supports up to 20 modes with 40 blocks per mode. Saved Pro macros are uncapped; each macro button still uses a block. CAMERA & MIC FOR OBS With Pro, send your iPhone camera and microphone to OBS over local Wi-Fi. Use supported lenses, zoom, background effects and face-tracked AR props. Effects and lenses depend on your device. AUDIO AND OBS CONTROL Balance app volume from your deck and add OBS input faders or mute controls.

MACROS AND WIDGETS Run saved desktop macros from your deck, Home Screen or Lock Screen widgets. Your paired desktop must be reachable. Pro internet macros use the relay; they do not replace local audio or OBS control. STREAMER.BOT With Pro, use supported actions, chat, variables and event blocks in Custom Modes. Requires Streamer.bot running on a Windows desktop and the relevant host connection. SAVED COMPUTERS Save up to five desktop profiles on Free, or unlimited profiles with Pro. Choose the computer you want to control; its desktop host must be reachable. GET STARTED 1. Install the free SIDeck Studio desktop host from sideckstudio.com. 2. Sign in to SIDeck Studio and pair with your desktop using its QR code or supported manual connection. 3. Build a mode and assign your controls. Requires the desktop companion running on a supported Windows PC or Mac. Local controls require an available local connection; OBS features require OBS Studio. English and Arabic are supported.
