1. Before using SoundWire on your Android device you must install and run the SoundWire Server application on the Windows/Linux PC or laptop which is your source of music, web audio streaming, or other sounds.
2. SoundWire has low latency (audio delay), which means it can even be used to listen to the soundtrack of a movie or YouTube video while you watch (**Note you must adjust the buffer size in app settings for low latency).
3. SoundWire lets you stream any music or audio ("what you hear now") from your Windows or Linux PC to your Android mobile devices.
4. You can use any music player on your PC or laptop like Spotify, YouTube, or iTunes and stream the live sound over WiFi directly to your Android device.
5. SoundWire can work as a baby monitor or listening device with a computer such as a netbook that has a built-in microphone.
6. Hook up turntables to your computer's line input and stream a live DJ set to another part of the house over WiFi, or anywhere else over 3G/4G (additional network setup may be needed for 3G/4G).
7. The full version enables unlimited Opus audio compression, can handle multiple clients, and has no ads or voice identification.
8. Android TV: SoundWire will work on most Android TV devices but needs to be sideloaded.
9. Please consider purchasing the full version of SoundWire if you'd like to support the developer.
10. Download the server at (do NOT obtain the server from any other web site). - Excellent sound quality (44. - Runs on all Android versions back to 1.
11. SoundWire does audio mirroring (audio cast).
1. as the app is now, it is constantly trying to get the delay as low as possible, which makes sense, but if it's always changing, i can't give my co.puter a number and say "delay the video by this much."I experienced a consistent audio delay of 1 to 2 seconds with SoundWire, which makes it unusable for watching videos with people talking.
2. However some messages are quiet confusing: the app says my Android device supports low-latency audio at 48.0kHz, but what am I supposed to set on host, 16bit or 24bit?It's a great piece of software and does what it's intended to.
3. Right now for folks who are trying to connect their bluetooth audio devices to their PC through their phone, a cheaper and better solution might be to directly buy a BT dongle than actually buying the paid version of this software.
4. It's impossible to use it for tasks which require real time audio (movies, gaming, conference calls, etc.) due to the huge delay even on the lowest settings.
5. Not having to wait for the buffer to be full to stream audio seems to negate almost any delay.Surprisingly works not flawlessly though.
6. For those who actually need to overcome long distances to transfer sound to their phone and don't care about high latency, I can recommend it.Consider activating compression in the settings! I love this app but I had issues with the sound being choppy.
7. It does stutter sometimes, but when I'm watching stuff on Prime Video, I can't find any delay in the audio.
8. SoundWire is an interesting attempt, but I think I'll just splurge on a proper wireless headset.Great app to transfer audio from my PC to my phone.
9. The latency is still not perfect but I use this app a lot.It did the job for the evening, some dropouts occurred due to me using WiFi connection on the server instead of the cable, but auto reconnect feature made the experience hassle free.
10. Second, the delay is massive about 2 or 3 second delay which ruins the experience if you're trying to watch a movie or use it for gaming.
11. Getting things to sound good through phone speakers can be a nightmare, but with this software, I can master DIRECTLY through my phones speakers, making the process so much easier.
Hi. My phone cannot connect to the server!
I think there is problem with the modem.
Is there any way to find out what is the problem with the app?
