ScreenStream is a user-friendly Android application that allows users to easily share their device screen and view it directly in a web browser. No additional software is required other than the ScreenStream itself, a web browser, and an internet connection (for Global mode).

ScreenStream offers two work modes: Global mode and Local mode. Both modes aim to stream the Android device screen with unique functionalities, restrictions, and customization options.

Global Mode (WebRTC):
  • Powered by WebRTC technology.

  • End-to-end encrypted communication.

  • Stream protection with password.

  • Supports both video and audio streaming.

  • Connect using unique stream ID and password.

  • Requires an internet connection for streaming.

  • Individual data transmission for each client, with more clients requiring increased internet bandwidth to maintain optimal performance.


  • Local Mode (MJPEG):
  • Powered by MJPEG standard.

  • Utilizes PIN for security (no encryption).

  • Sends video as a series of independent images (no audio).

  • Functions without an internet connection within your local network.

  • Embedded HTTP server.

  • Works with WiFi and/or mobile networks, supporting IPv4 and IPv6.

  • Clients connect via web browser using the app's provided IP address.

  • Highly customizable.

  • Individual data transmission for each client, with more clients requiring increased internet bandwidth to maintain optimal performance.


  • In both modes the number of clients is not directly limited, but it's important to keep in mind that each client consumes CPU resources and bandwidth for data transmission.

    Important Warnings:
    1. High Traffic on Mobile Networks: Use caution when streaming via mobile 3G/4G/5G/LTE networks to avoid excessive data usage.
    2. Delay in Streaming: Expect a delay of at least 0.5-1 second or more in certain conditions: slow device, poor internet or network connection, or when the device is under heavy CPU load due to other applications.
    3. Video Streaming Limitation: ScreenStream is not designed for streaming video, particularly HD video. While it will function, the stream quality may not meet your expectations.
    4. Incoming Connection Limitations: Some cell operators may block incoming connections for security reasons.
    5. WiFi Network Restrictions: Some WiFi networks (usually public or guest networks) may block connections between devices for security reasons.
