OBS Controller — Control OBS from Your Phone or Tablet

An OBS controller gives operators a faster way to manage scenes, audio, macros, and stream actions than reaching back to the OBS computer during a broadcast.

For many teams, a mobile OBS controller is the most practical format. It is portable, easy to hand to a volunteer or producer, and flexible enough to work as an OBS phone controller or OBS tablet controller.

• OBS scene switching for live transitions
• OBS macro automation for repeatable production actions
• OBS audio control for microphones and sources
• Stream start, stop, and recording actions
• Stream health monitoring during live production

That makes DeckPilot useful as an OBS remote controller for solo creators, church livestream teams, studios, and event operators.

A phone works well when you need quick access to scene changes, audio mute control, or macro buttons while moving around the room. A tablet gives you more space for a full OBS control surface with larger touch targets and status visibility.

If you are specifically looking for a way to control OBS from your phone, DeckPilot supports both compact and larger touch-based workflows on the same local network as the OBS machine.
