- A remote speaker or wireless headphones
- A way to listen to music and movies from your computer anywherearound your house, or further over cell networks

SoundWire does audio mirroring (audio cast). You can use any musicplayer on your PC or laptop like Spotify, YouTube, or iTunes andstream the live sound over WiFi directly to your Androiddevice.

This is the full version of SoundWire. It enables unlimited Opusaudio compression, can handle up to 10 connections at the sametime, and has no ads or interruptions. It also has a special ProMode to set and display buffer latency precisely inmilliseconds.

SoundWire has low latency (audio delay), which means it can even beused to listen to the soundtrack of a movie or YouTube video whileyou watch (**Note you must adjust the buffer size in app settingsfor low latency). There are other uses too... SoundWire can work asa baby monitor or listening device with a computer such as anetbook that has a built-in microphone. Hook up turntables to yourcomputer's line input and stream a live DJ set to another part ofthe house over WiFi, or anywhere else over 3G/4G (additionalnetwork setup may be needed for 3G/4G).
