Settings

Tap the gear icon in the upper-left of RouteEffect or press command-comma to open the settings sheet. Here is a description of what you can change and configure in the app.

General

Remember Last Router

When enabled, RouteEffect will automatically open to the last video router you used when you relaunch the app. Handy if you’re mostly using the same device every time. You will still need to tap Connect to connect to the video router.

Go to Routing on Connect

Skips the dashboard and takes you straight to the routing view when a router connects. RouteEffect remembers the last page you were on and will take you there (i.e. Button, Split, List, Wheel, Crosspoint, or Virtual Output).

Quick Connect Action

In the RouteEffect sidebar, you can tap on the icon next to a video router or simulator icon to perform a particular action.

  • Nothing: Tapping on the icon performs no additional action beyond selecting the video router.

  • Connect: Connects to the video router or simulator but does not open to the content or detail page.

  • Connect and Open: Connects to the video router or simulator and opens to the content or detail page. If you have the Go to Routing on Connect preference set, tapping on a video router icon will go to the Manage Routings section.

Use Take

When enabled, you must perform an additional step to change a source. When you tap on a source, it will be marked as the Take, and a colored border will appear around the button. To commit your change, tap the blue checkmark in the view that appears.

Double Tap to Select

Enabling this will require you to double-click or double-tap on an input or output in the Buttons, Split, Crosspoint pages. This is useful to prevent accidental switches.

Automation

Enable Shortcuts

Allows you to control RouteEffect using Apple’s Shortcuts app. You can automate routing actions, presets, and more. Learn more about Shortcuts support in RouteEffect here.

This feature requires an active subscription on RouteEffect or the paid up-front RouteEffect Pro.

Appearance

Default View Settings

These settings are copied over to each video router when they are initially created. By storing the settings on a video router basis you can be assured that the use of these video routers remains consistent.

  • Manage View Style: The page style to return to when launching the client for the first time.

  • Use Column Layout: Changes the orientation of the sources and destination panes in the Buttons and Split view styles.

  • Show Sources First: Prioritizes showing your list of sources first in the interface.

  • Show Details: Displays additional details on the Split view style page, Input Labels, and Output Labels pages.

System Haptics

Plays haptic feedback based on what view is being displayed and/or interacted with.

Hide Unlocked Label

Hide the icon for unlocked status in the interface unless necessary. This helps to remove the visual clutter in the interface.

Selected Button Color

Customize the highlight color for selected sources and destinations. Makes it easier to match your setup or improve visibility.

Color Scheme

Choose between Light, Dark, or System Default. Tailor the look of RouteEffect to your personal or studio lighting preferences.

Accent Color

Pick your favorite accent color for buttons, highlights, and UI elements. Because your control app should look as good as your video feed.

Security

Disable Auto-Lock

Turns off the auto-sleep feature on the device. For iPhone and iPad, this means the app not turn off due to inactivity.
