How To Use Android Phone As PC Speakers by Smartixy(m): 10:23am On Jan 11, 2015
Here, is a quick tutorial to use Android phone as
PC speakers . Many a times it happens that you
want to listen the sound played on your desktop
which doesn’t have the speakers connected to it.
Also, there are situations when your laptop inbuilt
speakers stops working and you want to listen to
the audio or video being played on your laptop.

For this, you now use your Android speakers as
external speakers by wirelessly connecting your
Android phone with your PC. For this, we will be
using SoundWire app for Android. SoundWire app
allows you to wirelessly connect your Android
phone via PC and use Android speakers as PC
speakers to play sound from PC to Android. The
app works great on Android phones.
Steps To Use Android Phone As PC
Speakers:

Step1: Download and install SoundWire app on
your Android phone from Google Play Store.

Step2: Download and install SoundWire PC client
for your Windows PC. Select the appropriate one
according to the operating system you are using;
Windows 7 or Windows XP.

Step3: The PC client will be downloaded in the Zip
format. Unzip the PC client file using unzip
software and then launch the SoundWire PC
Client.

Step4: Connect your Android phone and
Windows PC on a same Wi-Fi network.

Step5: Launch SoundWire app on your Android
phone. You will be prompted to enter the server
address.



Step6: Copy the server address from the PC client
of the app and then enter it into the app on your
Android phone.



Step7: Tap on the SoundWire app icon and to
connect it via PC client.

Step8: The Android app will then start
communicating with PC client installed and get
connected.

Step9: Now, play a song in windows media
player or any other media player on your
Windows PC to start listening to them on your
Android speakers.

You can also use Android phone as PC mic . Also,
use Android phone as Wi-Fi hotspot for your PC
and other Wi-Fi supported devices.

While listening to the audio on your Android
device, there can be a slight breakage in the audio
due to some network lag. Also, you should adjust
the buffer size in the settings menu of the app for
low latency.

I truly like the app, as you can make your work
easier by playing music on your PC and listening
it on your Android sitting anywhere far from
your PC. SoundWire app is simple and easy to
setup and use.
