WiFi Audio Streaming
WiFi Audio Streaming is a versatile Android application that allows you to stream audio over your local network. It works as a multi-protocol audio hub: act as a server to capture and send your Android device's audio, or as a client to receive and play audio from another device. With support for standard protocols, you can even stream directly to a web browser or media player.Key Features:Multi-Protocol Architecture: Stream using the native low-latency protocol (WFAS), standard RTP for media players, or HTTP to listen directly from any web browser (Chrome, Safari, Smart TVs).Internal Audio Streaming: In Server mode, stream your device's internal audio (apps, games, music) to other devices (requires Android 10+).Smart Auto-Connect: Automatically connect to prioritized IP addresses as soon as they are detected on the network, even in the background.Widgets & Quick Settings: Control your server or client directly from your home screen using interactive widgets, or use the Quick Settings tiles for instant access.Automatic & Manual Discovery: Clients automatically find available servers via mDNS. Manual IP connections automatically detect if the host is using Unicast or Multicast.Unicast & Multicast Support: Stream directly to a single device (Unicast) or to multiple clients simultaneously (Multicast), ideal for multi-room setups.Advanced Configuration: Customize sample rate, channels, buffer size, and manually select your active network interface to bypass VPN routing issues.Modern Interface: Built with Jetpack Compose and Material Expressive, the UI is clean, responsive, and features dynamic colors.The project is also available for Windows and Linux! Turn your computer into a wireless audio transmitter, receiver, or web server. Find the desktop version at GitHub and at GitLab.
