About

StreamWriter Studio

Features
Read full description

IMPORTANT: This app is the free companion to StreamWriter Studio for Mac. Without the Mac app it cannot receive any music – it is not a standalone radio recorder. How it works: StreamWriter Studio on your Mac records internet radio – every song is saved as its own cleanly tagged file with real album artwork. This app brings those recordings to your iPhone: select tracks in the Mac app, tap "Send to iPhone", and your songs travel directly and encrypted over your local network. No cloud, no account, no server – your music never leaves your Wi-Fi. YOUR LIBRARY, EVERYWHERE • All transferred songs with title, artist and real album artwork • Create and manage playlists and favorites • History: recently played tracks at a glance • Fast search across your entire library GREAT SOUND • 10-band equalizer • Background playback and lock-screen support • Control from the Lock Screen and Control Center PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Transfer happens only on your local network, device to device • No cloud, no account, no data collection – everything stays on your devices REQUIREMENT You need StreamWriter Studio for macOS (available on the Mac App Store) on a Mac on the same network. Radio recording itself happens exclusively on the Mac – this iPhone app is for transferring, managing and playing your recordings.
