With 15 virtual keys on your iPhone's screen, Stream Deck Mobile enables the full functionality of Stream Deck, now with a wireless connection. The app pairs easily by scanning a QR code within the Stream Deck software, syncing with all the actions that you've set up on the desktop app. Stream Deck Mobile is free to try from the Apple App Store, with the full version available for $2.99/month or $24.99/year.

Now iOS users who want to stream using Stream Deck Mobile can take full advantage of the "Hey Siri" function on their iPhone, allowing you to seamlessly control your stream without breaking stride as you play.

To use Elgato Stream Deck Mobile you need an iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch running iOs 12.2 or later. As mentioned the full version of the app is $2.99/month or $24.99/year.
