Best for IRL
Phone straight to your platforms
Your phone, Pyre's cloud, your platforms. Starts in seconds, with nothing but the phone. No overlays or alerts on stream.
Use case
Stream from your phone.
The Pyre app for Android turns your phone into a camera with its own encoder. Go live straight from the phone, or use it as a camera for your PC or Cloud Studio.
Set up in minutes
Install Pyre from Google Play
The listing is called Pyre. It is the Pyre.Stream app, the one with the camera.
Sign in with a QR code
Open Add a phone on the Sources page at pyre.stream and scan the code with the app. No password is typed on the phone.
Pick how you go live
Choose a setup once. You can change it any time you are not live.
Ways to go live
No PC
Phone with your overlays
Your phone sends to Cloud Studio, which puts your scenes, alerts and overlays around it. Takes about a minute to start, in 16:9.
With your PC
A camera for your PC
Your phone shows up in the Pyre app on your PC as a camera, and your PC adds your scenes before the stream goes out.
Shoot in 16:9 or 9:16, and keep your merged chat one tab away.
Test before anyone sees it
The Test button sits next to Go Live.
A test is a real stream that goes nowhere public. It plays back in a private player only you can see, for up to 30 minutes, and you can share the private link for a second opinion.
Read the guide: Test your streamLeave the app, keep the stream
While you are live or testing, leaving the app shrinks your camera into a small floating window, so you can check a map or answer a message. Your stream keeps running, and Mute, Pause and End stay at hand in the window.
Pause sends black video and mutes your mic together, without ending the stream. Resume brings both back.
