Designed as a practical iPad app for video, GenR8 gives you a full suite of patterns for real-world jobs: grids for alignment, geometry and bezel checks, precise colour bar test patterns for calibration, and content tailored to modern LED and LCD screens.

Key features include:
- Professional test patterns for videowalls, LED, LCD and projectors
- Support for custom resolutions and accurate pixel mapping
- External output over USB-C (HDMI/DisplayPort) or via AirPlay
- Useful in-built audio tones for quick signal chain checks
- Handy for VJs as a clean, technical VJ test pattern source
The app is built with live environments in mind. Plug your device into a processor or display and you’ve instantly got a dedicated source for videowall test pattern work, especially useful on unusual aspect ratios and custom resolution setups where mapping needs to be spot on.
GenR8 also fits neatly into VJ and live visuals rigs. As an iPad app for VJ use, it’s ideal for checking LED walls before doors open, confirming routing on festival stages, or dropping in a simple test look when you need something clear and technical on screen.
