About AirheadWaves
AirheadWaves streams audio playing on an Android device to a receiving server on the same network. The app captures internal device audio, encodes it as AAC, and sends it over a TCP connection. This can be used to play phone audio through a home audio setup or other local receiver without routing playback through a separate cable. Users can adjust volume, bass, and treble, and choose audio quality settings including bitrate, sample rate, and mono or stereo output. Multiple server profiles allow switching among receiver configurations. An audio-reactive visualization pulses with the music, and the interface supports light, dark, or system themes. The app is designed to preserve its state when sent to the background or when the device configuration changes. AirheadWaves requires Android 10 or later, network access, and a receiving server configured to accept its stream. Its usefulness depends on that receiver setup; it is a streaming source rather than a standalone multi-room player. The app is described as free and open source, with no ads or tracking. The controls for encoding and sound processing make it suitable for local audio projects where the user wants to adjust stream quality and basic tone before playback on another device.
