Get freedom from your phone’s obvious limitations. Use SDR driver, made by Signalware Ltd, a Tools app on your PC or Mac with BlueStacks, and level up your experience.
About the App
SDR driver is the behind-the-scenes helper that lets your Android device talk to popular USB software-defined radio receivers and stream them over your network using rtl_tcp. Built by Signalware Ltd, this Tools app focuses on doing one job well: providing a stable driver layer so your favorite SDR apps can handle the tuning and visuals. It’s simple, lightweight, and gets out of the way so you can listen, decode, and explore without extra clutter.
App Features
-
rtl_tcp streaming: Turn your phone or tablet into an rtl_tcp server and send IQ data over Wi‑Fi or Ethernet to clients on the same device or elsewhere on your network.
-
Made for SDR apps: It’s a driver, not a full tuner UI. Pair it with third‑party SDR clients that handle tuning, demodulation, and recording while SDR driver feeds the data.
-
Broad RTL‑SDR support: Works with RTL2832U‑based USB sticks from many brands—Terratec, Leadtek, Compro, MSI, ASUS, and more—covering a wide range of common DVB‑T and DAB/DAB+ variants.
-
HackRF compatibility: Plug in a HackRF One, Rad1o, or HackRF Jawbreaker and stream wideband captures through the same clean rtl_tcp pipeline.
-
Lightweight by design: Minimal interface, low fuss. Start the service, grant USB permissions, and let your client app handle the rest.
-
Open‑source roots: Based on the rtl_tcp and libhackrf stack and released under GPL2+, so what’s happening under the hood is transparent and community‑driven.
-
Desktop-friendly option: Prefer running Android apps from your PC? You can install SDR driver on BlueStacks to keep your SDR workflow close to your desktop setup.
BlueStacks brings your apps to life on a bigger screen—seamless and straightforward.
