  • Missing device-wide audio capture

Limitations

  • You can’t have multiple audio streams that send audio to AudioRelay’s virtual mic

Problems when logging in to my old Android 6 phone

Hello, I have observed three issues in this version.

  1. For Windows(host) → iOS(receiver), the audio stream seems to be defaultly disabled, and showed Another app played audio after we started even though there was no other app playing audio. Also, I would suggest to auto resume once the other app is not playing or let AudioRelay always play (New to iOS, not sure if that’s achievable)
  2. On Windows, non-ascii characters in the menu expanded by right clicking the app’s icon cant be rendered correctly and shown as square boxes (This can be seen by switching app language to Chinese). [Windows 11 Pro 25H2, with Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional and Japanese installed in the system]
  3. On Android, the welcome message cant be dismissed (no reaction after clicking) [Android 15, arm64-v8a, OriginOS5, Vivo S17T]

I can’t tell you how happy I am right now. Don’t know how often I’ve searched for software like this over the last 6 years and never found anything. When there was something it was always only for Mac or without an iOS app. Luckily I stumbled across the alpha announcement. This is exactly what I’ve always been looking for and it works wonderfully too! Thank you! thank you! thank you!

I have 2 questions.
For audio quality “uncompressed” can you say how many Kb/s that corresponds to?
On iOS the mic already has noise suppression/voice isolation. Does it still make sense to activate the noise suppression for the microphone in AudioRelay?
