ATEM Error Logger

ATEM Error Logger is a purpose-built utility for video producers, live-stream operators, and broadcast engineers who work with Blackmagic Design's ATEM switchers. It solves one problem, and solves it well: capturing the exact moment something goes wrong during a shoot so you can review, report, or bill for it later.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Tap START at the beginning of your session.
2. Every time an error happens — a switcher glitch, a dropped feed, a talent stumble, a client change — tap the big red ERROR button.
3. Tap STOP when the session ends.
4. Enter a project or event name, then email the full timestamped log to yourself, your editor, or your client — or copy it to the clipboard for Slack, Notes, or your invoicing app.

That's it. No accounts, no cloud sync, no distractions.

BUILT FOR THE JOB

• Massive tap target. The ERROR button dominates the screen so you can hit it without looking — one thumb, eyes on the shot. • Wall-clock timestamps. Every tap is logged in real HH:MM:SS so you can cross-reference against your recording timeline. • Screen stays awake. The display won't auto-lock mid-session, even during multi-hour shoots. • Low Power Mode aware. If iOS Low Power Mode kicks in and might override keep-awake, the app tells you. • Haptic feedback on every tap so you know the error was captured without looking. • Live elapsed timer and running error count. • Session summary. Start time, stop time, duration, total errors, and the full timestamp list — ready to send. • Clean, high-contrast interface designed to be readable in a dim gallery or a bright OB truck.

PRIVACY-FIRST

• No accounts, no login, no tracking, no ads. • Nothing is stored server-side. Sessions live only in memory until you export them. • The only data that leaves your device is what you explicitly send: the recipient's email, the project name, and your timestamps — forwarded via Resend for delivery.

WHO IT'S FOR

• Live event and broadcast operators running ATEM Mini, ATEM Constellation, or any Blackmagic switcher • Wedding and event videographers documenting take retries and technical issues • Camera assistants and DITs logging incidents on set • QA teams reviewing rehearsal or dress-run performance • Anyone who needs to say "the glitch happened at 19:17:33" with certainty

Fast, focused, single-purpose. Built by working videographers, for working videographers.
