M-SPEAKER Server

M-speaker is a neat software that lets you turn an Android smartphone into a Wi-Fi speaker by connecting it to the same network as your computer.

M-speaker functionality is closely related to the symbiotic relationship between the Server executable and the Android apk. The server version has to be downloaded and installed, while the Android apk has multiple sources – either you snag the apk and manually move it to your phone via USB or scan the QR code from the developer’s website (or from within the Server app) to directly install it on your smartphone.

The UI comes as a one-piece panel that provides a list where the connected devices should show up, and a Record feature that may come in handy for capturing audio.

M-speaker was developed for repurposing old smartphones that have no use besides being tossed in the trash can. The phone’s specs shouldn’t matter as long as the audio output is clear or at least satisfactory.

M-speaker is an interesting piece of software that can turn old smartphones in Wi-Fi PC speakers in a couple of minutes. Keep in mind that both elements (Server and apk) are required to run at the same time to successfully switch the phone to a speaker.
