Broadcast from the phone's cameras, plug in a USB camera, bond several networks into one connection, and read your chat over the top of it all.

IRL+ BOND
Our own streaming protocol, built around the way mobile connections actually fail:
• A weakening network is rested before it glitches the stream, then brought back when it recovers
• Keyframes ride two networks at once, so losses stop greying out the picture
• When a network dies, packets still in the air are resent on the survivors immediately
• A connection that drops rejoins at full strength
• Traffic is shared by what each network can genuinely carry
• Every packet is encrypted, and each connection negotiates its own keys

BROADCAST FROM YOUR CAMERAS
• Full screen live view from any lens, with its field of view listed
• Pinch to zoom, presets from 0.6x to 10x
• Video stabilisation, on by default
• 30 or 60 fps, with 720p and 1080p landscape presets
• Battery level and temperature on screen

EXTERNAL CAMERAS
• USB cameras wired straight into the phone
• Popular DJI and Huawei action cameras over USB
• DJI cameras over RTMP, connecting to the app directly
• SRT and RTMP in from a second phone, GoPro or Osmo
• Choose where the audio comes from

PICTURE-IN-PICTURE
• USB, RTMP and SRT cameras live at the same time
• Front camera inset over the rear feed, or the reverse
• Draggable, pinch to resize, one button to swap
• Adjustable frame border with a colour picker

NETWORK BONDING
• Cellular, Wi-Fi and Ethernet combined into one stream
• IRL+ BOND, SRTLA, or Moblink relay using spare phones
• Adaptive and Balanced modes with per-link priority
• Maximum bitrate per connection
• Bonded links panel showing each link's rate and share

MULTI-PROTOCOL STREAMING
• IRL+ BOND
• RTMP to your own server
• SRT, built on libsrt, with optional AES encryption
• SRTLA for bonded connections
• UDP RAW for low latency on a local network

TWITCH AND KICK CHAT
• Read both platforms over your stream, no account needed
• Merged into one window, each message tagged with its service
• BTTV, FFZ, 7TV and Kick emotes, animated included
• Draggable and resizable, with text size and opacity controls

SCREEN CASTING
Capture and stream exactly what is on your screen in real time.

CONNECTION HEALTH
• Live RTT, buffer, loss and retransmits
• Adaptive bitrate that responds to real conditions
• Bitrate turns red below your low bitrate threshold
• Per-connection data usage, live and in history
• Data warnings per link, with optional vibrate
• Automatic bitrate reduction when the phone overheats

PRIVACY MODE
Pixelate the camera in both the preview and the stream, with a notice on screen while it is active. Screen lock freezes the controls against stray presses.

OBS INTEGRATION
Connect to OBS Studio over WebSocket and switch scenes from the phone.

ALSO INCLUDED
• Dead spot map, so you learn where your routes fall over
• Stream history with the numbers that matter
• Multiple connection profiles, switched instantly
• Settings export and import
• Microphone selection including USB mics, with a live level meter
• Keeps streaming when you switch apps

PRIVACY FIRST
No ads, no analytics, no tracking. All settings are stored on your device. Your stream goes straight to your server. We never see it, touch it, or store it. ## Rankings - #2,198,965 — Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE` - `android.permission.BLUETOOTH_CONNECT` - `android.permission.BLUETOOTH_SCAN` - `android.permission.CAMERA` - `android.permission.CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_MULTICAST_STATE` - `android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_CAMERA` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MEDIA_PROJECTION` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MICROPHONE` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS` - `android.permission.NEARBY_WIFI_DEVICES` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO` - `android.permission.VIBRATE` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE` - `com.screen.caster.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` ## Similar extensions and apps - [IRLwhatever](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.irlwhatever.app) — 908 users - [LOLS IRL: Live Stream Bonding](https://chrome-stats.com/d/gg.lols.irl) — 97 users - [Larix Broadcaster: Live Stream](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.wmspanel.larix_broadcaster) — 430,821 users, 2.87 / 5 - [Super Simple IRL](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.ssirl.app) — 6 users - [CamStream - Live Camera Stream](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.mobzapp.camstream) — 322,753 users, 4.26 / 5 - [FastIRL Pro](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.supskysoftware.fastirlpro) — 25 users - [IRL+ Chat](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.screen.chat) — 922 users - [Live-Reporter+ Security Camera](https://chrome-stats.com/d/net.kzkysdjpn.livereporterplus) — 3 users - [IQ-Connect Pro](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.live.lcam.stream.reporterlite) — 1,954 users - [LifeStreamer](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.dimadesu.lifestreamer) — 625 users - [Larix Screencaster: LiveStream](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.wmspanel.larix_screencaster) — 107,876 users, 4.03 / 5 - [Omnistream Live Video Creator](https://chrome-stats.com/d/three_d_innotech.poc_3dinnotech) — 164,002 users, 2.98 / 5 --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.screen.caster)
