Streamy · v1.0.0 · Android

On Air

Go live from your phone.

Streamy is an Android app that sends your live voice to a SHOUTcast internet-radio server — and keeps broadcasting, even with the screen off.

How it works

What it is

A pocket-sized broadcast studio.

Your phone becomes a live broadcast source.

Speak into the mic, and Streamy encodes your voice and sends it over the internet to a SHOUTcast v2 server — the same kind of server that powers thousands of internet-radio stations. Anyone tuned in to that server hears you in real time. No laptop, no mixing desk, no studio required.

Features

Built to stay on air.

Everything below ships in v1.0.0 — written for humans, not protocols.

Ch 01

Broadcasts to real radio servers

Uses the genuine SHOUTcast v2 source protocol — the standard behind thousands of internet-radio stations. Live-tested against DNAS 2.6.1.

Ch 02

Your choice of audio quality

From voice-friendly 16 kbps up to music-grade 192 kbps. Pick the bitrate, sample rate, and mono or stereo.

Ch 03

Stays live in the background

A foreground service keeps the mic and connection alive with the screen off — and reconnects after the system reclaims the app.

Ch 04

Drops? It reconnects itself

Automatic retry with growing pauses between attempts — plus a one-tap stop when you'd rather give up.

Ch 05

Now-playing titles, no admin login

Type a song or show name while live and listeners see it instantly. No server admin password needed.

Ch 06

See your voice as a waveform

A real-time oscilloscope drawn straight from your mic signal, glowing like a broadcast tally light.

Ch 07

Save multiple stations

Keep a profile per server — host, port, password, and audio settings — and switch between them.

Ch 08

A console that feels like a console

Late-night tally-light design: deep ink, on-air red, and a monospace readout. Built with Hallmark.

How it works

From your voice to their ears.

Four steps, happening continuously while you're live.

  1. 01

    You speak

    Your phone's microphone picks up your voice.

  2. 02

    Streamy encodes

    It compresses your voice into MP3 audio in real time.

  3. 03

    Sent to your server

    The audio travels over the internet to your SHOUTcast v2 server.

  4. 04

    Listeners tune in

    Anyone connected to that server hears you, live.
