SoundWire Server turns your Windows PC into a robust media server that allows you to stream your music to mobile devices.

Even though music streaming platforms have become very popular in recent years, many people want to listen to the songs and playlists that they have curated on their own. SoundWire Server will allow you to create a remote server on your Windows PC so that you can easily stream all of your music directly to your mobile devices. This is the perfect software for any audiophile, and it is completely free to use.

After you download SoundWire on your Android device, you will need to install the SoundWire Server on your Windows PC. Once both of those installs are complete, you must put all of the devices on the same WiFi connection and then log into the same account. From there, you will be able to stream any music that you have on your computer directly to your Android smartphones and tablets.

In addition to streaming your personal music library, you can also use SoundWire to cast music from your favorite streaming platforms. Some people even use this software as a simple and effective baby monitor that can be taken all over the home.
