Icecast Streaming

Turn your phone into a professional audio transmitter. Capture audio from your device's microphone or an external one, encode it in real time in high-quality AAC format, and send it directly to any Icecast or SHOUTcast server.

Ideal for online radio, live streaming, podcasting, sporting events, religious services, news coverage, and any situation where you need to stream live audio from your cell phone.

Key Features

- Real-time Streaming — AAC-LC encoding at 44.1 kHz with minimal latency. Audio is captured from the microphone, encoded, and sent to the server continuously and reliably.

- Multiple Bitrates — Choose from 32, 48, 64, 96, 128, or 192 kbps depending on your internet connection quality and bandwidth needs.

- Automatic Reconnection — If the connection is interrupted, the app automatically reconnects to the server without any intervention. It works when switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data.

- Audio Visualizer — A real-time visual indicator that displays the audio level captured by the microphone, allowing you to verify that the audio is being transmitted correctly.

- Stream History — Automatically records the last 5 streams with their duration, data sent, average bitrate, and number of reconnections.

- Built-in Timer — Displays the current stream time in HH:MM:SS format.

- Always-On Display — An option to keep the screen active during streaming, preventing your phone from locking.

- Icecast and SHOUTcast Compatible — Works with any Icecast 2.4+ server and SHOUTcast servers that support AAC encoding.

- Two Color Themes — Choose between the Musas (light) or Athena (dark) theme according to your visual preference.

- Simple and Intuitive Interface — A clean design focused on the essentials: set up, start, and stream. No complications.

How does it work?

1. Enter your Icecast server details (host, port, mount point, username, and password).

2. Configure your stream metadata (name and description).

The app sends AAC-encoded audio using Icecast's HTTP source protocol, ensuring compatibility with most players and clients.
