Boilerplate
One line
ProSwitcher is an Android app by Sabaat that controls Blackmagic Design ATEM live production switchers from a phone or tablet over the local network.
One paragraph
ProSwitcher, the Android control app for ATEM switchers, turns a phone or tablet into a control surface for a Blackmagic Design ATEM live production switcher. It connects over the local network with no computer and no account, and finds switchers automatically. Switching (program and preview, tally, Cut, Auto, the T-bar and Fade to Black) is free forever. ProSwitcher Pro, a one-time US$39.99 purchase with a 14-day free trial, adds keyers and picture-in-picture, transitions, media players, the audio mixer, SuperSource, streaming, recording, multiview, macros, aux routing and colour generators. A built-in demo switcher, with every panel open, lets anyone try it without an ATEM. ProSwitcher is made by Sabaat and is not affiliated with Blackmagic Design.

Writing about ProSwitcher
- Write the name as ProSwitcher: one word, capital P and S.
- On first mention, say “ProSwitcher, the Android control app for ATEM switchers”. An unrelated 2009 iPhone jailbreak tweak also used the name ProSwitcher.
- ProSwitcher is independent. Please do not describe it as a Blackmagic Design product or as official, and do not pair it with Blackmagic's logos.
- “ATEM”, “Fairlight” and “Blackmagic Design” are trademarks of Blackmagic Design Pty Ltd.
- “Tested on” applies to the ATEM Mini Extreme ISO and the ATEM Production Studio 4K.
- ProSwitcher is not on the App Store yet. Please do not describe it as available for iPhone or iPad, and do not show an App Store badge with it; “iPhone and iPad versions are planned” is accurate.
- The ATEM product photos elsewhere on this site are Blackmagic Design's own (© Blackmagic Design Pty. Ltd.), not part of this kit. For hardware images, use Blackmagic Design's own press images under their terms.
