Mavis has introduced advanced NDI support to their iPhone and iPad Camera app, bringing HX3-certified streaming and expanded workflow options to mobile devices. With this update, the app now supports broadcast-quality video transmission, remote collaboration, and direct integration with popular cloud-based services. Let’s take a closer look.
We became acquainted with the Mavis app for iOS back in April at NAB 2025, when we spoke with Patrick Holroyd of Mavis and learned all things app-related. You can see the interview in the video below. A few months later, the company offered support for the Atomos Ninja phone accessory for iPhone-based workflows, which we discussed in our Focus Check podcast. Now, with NDI integration, the app continues to expand its role as a versatile tool for professional and mobile production workflows.
The app can now send and receive NDI streams, supporting both Full NDI and the more bandwidth-efficient NDI HX3, while using codecs like H.264, HEVC, and 10-bit HEVC to maintain high image quality with minimal latency, according to the company.
The update also brings audio flexibility, with support for up to 8 audio channels via NDI. Each channel can be recorded individually with timecode tracks, which should make post-production alignment simpler and more precise. To learn more about NDI (Network Device Interface), visit the NDI website.
The app can also act as an on-the-go NDI converter, feeding into Frame.io, Mavis C2C, SRT, or RTMP workflows directly from your device. The new version adds multicast group management for more efficient handling of multiple NDI streams in complex setups.
This update builds on the recent integration with the Atomos Ninja Phone, a 10-bit video encoder that pairs with mirrorless cameras to boost image quality and support the HDR features introduced in NDI 6.
The Mavis Camera app is free to download from the App Store, with full NDI functionality available as a one-time in-app purchase of $29.99 (local pricing may vary). For more details, visit the Mavis website.

A camera was put in my hands at 16, and I’ve been taking photographs ever since. Before moving to Vienna, I worked as a photographer on film sets, telling stories as they unfolded behind the scenes. Since then, I’ve focused on immersive theater, both as a photographer and an actor. I am the photographer for the award-winning Nesterval ensemble, documenting the energy and atmosphere of their performances. I’m a teller of stories. Stories hold my interest. I’ll take on any project with a story to tell.
