AllCast – a Music Streaming App for Android
AllCast is another media streaming app that allows users to stream music and videos with AirPlay on Android phone/tablet. It helps to stream music to Apple TV or other AirPlay receivers with ease. Besides streaming locally-stored music, AllCast is also able to stream music from Spotify, Rdio, Pandora and other popular music streaming apps to AirPlay speakers. But you're required to Root access on your phone to let these streaming apps gain access to media audio, which voids your manufacturer's warranty. (Plus, AllCast is able to connect to Chromecast and other media sharing devices using DLNA protocol, like Roku and Xbox.)
Apart from paid music streaming apps, you can also find other free music streaming apps, such as AllConnect, AllStream and AirAudio. However, many users complain that these apps cannot work well with their devices. And they are always freezing and crashing. And the last but not the least big issue is that many apps need root. If you are fed up with various issues happening to these paid or free music streaming apps, 5KPlayer integrated with free AirPlay feature is worth a try. You don't need to pay for it. And no root required. It can stream music for you immediately and smoothly.
