FreeStreamer is an Objective-C streaming audio player library for iOS and OS X with a low-memory footprint. It supports HTTP and ShoutCast streams, buffering, caching, recording, and PCM sample access.
Use cases
- play internet radio streams in an iOS app
- stream audio with low memory usage on iPhone
- build a ShoutCast radio player for Mac
- cache streamed audio files locally for offline replay
- record an audio stream to a file
- access raw PCM samples for an audio visualizer
When to choose
- you need a native Objective-C audio streaming player for iOS or macOS
- memory and CPU efficiency are critical on mobile devices
- you need ShoutCast metadata support or stream recording
When to avoid
- you need cross-platform (Android, Windows) audio streaming
- you prefer Swift-first or actively maintained alternatives like AVPlayer-based solutions
- you need formats beyond HTTP/ShoutCast streaming
