Beamcord Français
Guide

Watch a PC screen live on a phone

Follow a game from the couch, show something to someone who only has their phone, keep an eye on a long render: all it takes is opening a link.

The Beamcord window during a live stream: the streamed picture, a preview of what viewers see, and the bitrate and latency readouts.

No app to install on the phone

The stream opens in the phone's browser, or in the Discord app if the link was shared there. Nothing to install, nothing to set up, and no account to create to watch.

A smooth picture, even on a phone

It isn't a promise, it's measured: on iPhone, each frame is displayed in 6 ms in Safari and 7 ms in Discord, the most demanding case, without a single frame dropped out of 120. The stream keeps its 60 frames per second.

On the PC side, the picture is encoded by the machine's video chip, in 1080p, and arrives in 96 ms (measured median).

How it works

  1. On the PC, open Beamcord and pick a screen or a window.
  2. Start the stream and send the link to yourself, or to whoever is watching.
  3. Open the link on the phone: the stream starts.
