Hecate Viewer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Hecate Viewer is the read-only companion to Hecate, the profile-driven capture app. It connects to the MQTT broker you configure, SUBSCRIBES to the asset stream, and places every incoming object on a live map the moment it is published — with a chronological feed alongside. It is a pure viewer. It captures nothing, edits nothing and publishes nothing; everything on screen came from your broker and lives only in memory. A LIVE MAP, FIRST One pin per incoming asset, placed where it was captured. Fresh arrivals pulse teal; as they age they settle to grey. The Feed tab shows the same stream newest-first, with profile colours and freshness tags. Tap a pin or row for every captured field. ASSETS FADE OUT ON A TIMER Choose how long a received asset stays visible (minutes, or forever). Pins visibly shrink and fade as their time runs out, then leave map and feed together — the screen only ever shows what is current. FILTER BY PROFILE One tap on a profile chip narrows map and feed to that workflow, in its accent colour; one more tap brings everything back. THE ONLY THING YOU NEED IS AN MQTT BROKER No developer backend, no accounts, no analytics, no tracking. Scan a provisioning QR from your administrator or enter the broker by hand — the password goes straight into the device Keychain. The broker's retained backlog fills the screen the moment you connect; everything after that arrives live. What appears is governed entirely by your broker and its permissions. Localized in English, German, French and Spanish. One app for iPhone and iPad.
