Description
Professionals use test cards to calibrate broadcast systems and cinemas use them too, so why shouldn’t home cinemas or theatres use them too? TestCard ProHD is the innovative means to calibrating your screen to ensure a consistent and correct representation of display media. (In-App purchase required after ensuring this will work on your TV / Display.)
** In-App purchase required after compatibility testing for full functionality. See below for why. **
Additionally, TestCard ProHD also now includes an SPL or “decibel” meter to assist with setting up surround sound sources. It’s a solution for calibrating both audio and visual elements within the home that can also be used in professional environments.
Newest version now includes a Audio Visual Synchronisation test to help diagnose lip-sync issues.
TestCard ProHD is the application for setting up a modern High Definition TV or projector. We’ve grouped together some common types of test cards as well as some new ones that will help set up home theaters to a professional standard.
Adjusting the contrast and brightness is essential to ensuring that you get the best from your TV or projector, but color is vitally important too. Further, test cards for motion and sharpness tweak more performance from your screen. Using these test cards and their instructions you’ll be able to tweak to get the best you can without the expensive of a dedicated calibration service.
Only by applying test cards in a controlled manner will you to get the best from your home theater and TestCard ProHD is the right tool, taking advantage of the unique abilities of the iPhone and iPad.
Within modern screens there are many techniques used to smooth motion. These can also have a detrimental effect, yet correctly set some do improve the picture. Having a repeating pattern to assist the setting of motion controls is essential. TestCard ProHD has test cards specifically design for motion testing on a screen.
Further, each test card has an information section to give you concise information and instruction on how to use it. The more that can be gained form each test card, the more information is provided. For ease of use the instruction are displayed on the iPhone / iPad while simultaneously displaying the test card on the external display.
Access to the test cards on the external display, Virtual Blue Filter and the SPL meter are only available after an In-App purchase. Using the default test screen please ensure that you have tested your device with the media adaptor, or Apple TV, on the external display before purchasing access. This is to allow you to verify that your system is fully compatible before purchase, and to share a single purchase with your iOS devices and Apple TV.
TestCard ProHD can be used with Apple TV V2, V3, V4 or V5 / 4k, or with the Apple media interfaces for HDMI or VGA.
Apple TV V2 and V3 can be used as the external display interface using AirPlay Mirroring. Simply switch on AirPlay on the iPhone or iPad and select Mirroring. See below for instructions on AirPlay Mirroring.
For HDMI or VGA Apple produces two types of media interface. While we’ve included some test cards for VGA / computer calibration, the home cinema user who is looking for 1080p compatibility should opt for the HDMI based media interface.
Apple TV version of the app is also available. Once access to the testcards is bought on either iOS or Apple TV app, you can have access on the other type of device without additional purchase. The In-App-Purchase is shared between all compatible devices registered on your Apple ID.
Apple TV AirPlay Instructions:
To enable AirPlay Mirroring connect your iOS device and your Apple TV to the same Wi-Fi network. For iOS 7 swipe up from the bottom of your screen to access Control Center. Tap on the AirPlay icon, select your Apple TV and switch on Mirroring. More details can be found on Apple’s support page http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5209

Fixing bug that prevented transition from testcard list to the actual card. It has been traced to new code that was used to update from definitions that are being retired by Apple. Part of keeping the app fresh for new versions of iOS. We mishandled how the new types now need to be stored. Seemed to work on updated apps but not fresh installs.
A big thanks to the user who reported this as the app seemed to be working when on our phone and simulator.

Bug fix for moving from testcard list to testcards. We think an old style on one of the user interfaces caused it to exit in some cases. If you still have this problem and can tell us more please email [email protected] to help us solve this. We're a small developer and can't buy every phone, sorry, but we do test different phones in the simulator. Thank you.

* Virtual Blue Filter - a new innovation from J.S. Technology to assist with testcard use.
* General iOS updates.
Something we've long wanted to add to TestCard ProHD and now we have enabled using the built in camera to be used as a blue filter.
Remember, with TestCard ProHD you get this update without having to "buy the disc" again as you would with DVD or Blu Ray testcards!

* New sections for Expanded Black TV.
* iPad Pro Support.
We're finding that some screens require calibration from the PC range of colors rather than Normal TV because of where their reference black is. So we've added new sections where we've adapted the existing test cards for brightness and contrast to work of the Extended Black / PC black reference.
The reason for this may be that the source and screen are automatically setting for "Extended Black", or "HDMI Full Range". Some screens will have this as an option which can be switched on or off, and it seems that some are now doing this automatically. In order to offer the correct test cards we've added cards to suit based upon the cards already provided, and updated instructions for them.
We've always intended TestCard ProHD to expand whenever someone asks for test cards to be added, and this is exactly what we're doing. There's no extra charges for these new cards - they're all delivered as part of the existing access. Simply update the app to get the new cards and there's no need to re-purchase as you would with DVD / Blu Ray based test cards.
Also adding support for iPad Pro. Essentially just adjusting placements to suit the larger screen.

New graphical buttons!
After creating some graphical buttons for Home Theater SPL we just had to add graphical buttons to TestCard ProHD too.
Other updates are mainly behind the scenes to keep the app updated for newer versions of iOS.

Dr Bob NYC,
Bargain
$4.99 gives you a complete selection of video test cards as well as sound adjustments.
Gdsebiq,
Great App for the price
I don’t understand comments giving only 1 star. The app is only 5 dollars and similar calibration tool are usually more expensive.
???😡,
Can’t use the test cards after payment
Even after I pay for it and I connected my phone to my tv the test cards don’t display on my tv and when I try to use the blue filter it acts like I haven’t paid for it I tried resetting the app but I can’t rebuy the test cards do y’all know how to fix this
mwynnm,
Portrait only; hasn’t even been proofread or even spell-checked
The description refers to non-existent “Apple TV V2”, “V3”, “V4”, and “V5”; this forces the use to figure out, with possible error, what real products these made-up names refer to.
The app itself riddled with typos, misspellings, and other errors and apparently hasn’t been proofread even once.
On top of all that, the developer thinks it’s OK to require the user to (detach their iPad from its Smart Keyboard or rearrange its cover and) pick their iPad up from its landscape mounted position and hold it vertically for this app that has no reason not to support landscape. This app is specifically for use with an Apple TV, so the most natural position of an iPad is likely on a table, in landscape orientation, in front of the user facing a large display. Dictating orientation is rude enough, but dictating portrait for this particular app is worse.

Muéro,
Useful
This is exactly what I needed to help me with an audio/video sync issue.
Say Ton,
Deceptive advertising
While this might be a good calibration tool, it's deceptive to offer it as free, then make you pay an unknown fee to use the calibration cards.
THX Tuneup is completely free and does a great job.
This company doesn't even let you know what they want for their service.
Bad policy in my opinion.
I didn't even bother to use it because of this.
Hopefully others will follow suit and cause this company to re-think its policy.

Trips3X,
Ummm how much? OHHHH it’s $4.99!
You guys do in fact realize that Apple TV users locating the app on the App Store via their Apple TV can NOT see what the app costs when they click “BUY”, right?
Someone, like myself, only just now, might do a random search for “4K or “Test” on Apple TV, locate this app, attempt to use it, find your in app purchase, attempt to see what it would cost to do so, only to see NO PRICE LISTED. They might then attempt to locate the app on their iPad.. which would be a fruitless venture as the app is not on iPadOS. Finally they might grab their iPhone and search there and FINALLY find that the app costs 4.99$ since iOS actually shows you the cost of in app purchases prior to making the purchase, where as Apple TV prompts a user to enter their password before proceeding. Perhaps the price is shown after that step before committing, but many, myself included are not likely to blindly take that chance until going through the steps I just outlined above.
So do us and yourselves all a favor, please. We understand you have to eat. Ya know, so do we. We get it. But be forthcoming about what you want for this service somewhere, ANYWHERE, in the description! On the landing page via Apple TV, in the info section upon using the app. Let ppl know what it’ll cost them. Is 4.99 fair? I think so. Will others? Who knows, that’s how this works. But you certainly have a much better shot at actually selling this useful app by disclosing its cost rather than chasing users away whom aren't willing to roll the dice during a blind Apple TV check out without entering their password first.
Think about it.
