Custom Deck

The Deck tab is a fully customisable grid of buttons. Build a control surface tailored to your stream - scene switches, mute controls, hotkeys, source toggles, and more, arranged however you like.

Adding buttons

Tap the + button at the top of the Deck tab to add a new button. Select the button type from the list, configure it, and tap Save. The button appears in the next available grid slot.

Button types

Scene Switch

Switches to a specific scene with a single tap. The button highlights when that scene is live, giving you a visual indicator of the current programme scene.

OBS Hotkey

Triggers any hotkey configured in OBS Studio. This lets you fire hotkeys remotely without needing keyboard access - useful for starting replays, switching profiles, or triggering custom script actions.

Toggle Source

Shows or hides a specific source in a specific scene. The button reflects the current visibility state of the source in real time.

Toggle Filter

Enables or disables a specific filter on a source. Useful for toggling effects like colour correction, noise gates, or blur on the fly during a stream.

Mute All

Mutes every audio source at once. Tap again to restore. The smart restore mode remembers which sources were unmuted before muting and brings back only those, rather than unmuting everything. If the snapshot is lost (for example after reconnecting), all sources are unmuted.

Fix Media Sources

Automatically detects media sources that have stopped playing (stuck, ended, or errored) and restarts them. Useful for looping background videos or music sources that sometimes fail during long streams.

Media Volume

A slider button for adjusting the volume of a specific media source. Drag the button left or right to change the level without opening the full audio mixer.

Customising buttons

Long-press any button to open its edit menu. From here you can:

Change the button label.
Choose a background colour.
Pick an icon from the icon library.
Adjust the font size of the label.
Delete the button.

Reordering buttons

Long-press a button and drag it to a new position in the grid. Other buttons shift to fill the gap.

Live state indicators

Buttons that correspond to a current state in OBS (for example a Scene Switch button for the active scene, or a Toggle Source button for a visible source) show a highlighted active state. This gives you an at-a-glance view of what is currently live without needing to check OBS.
