PhimCa turns your Android phone into a wireless remote and media bridge for the library you already own. Browse the files on your home network — NAS drives, Windows PCs, or any SMB/CIFS share — plus your cloud storage and the files on your phone, then play them locally or cast them to any DLNA or UPnP device on your Wi-Fi. Whether you are sending a 4K movie to the living-room TV or streaming lossless FLAC to a hi-fi DAC, PhimCa delivers exactly the bits your files contain, in a dark glassmorphism interface built for OLED screens.

Casting is free and ad-supported, with a 16-track cast queue limit. Screen mirroring is Premium. A single one-time purchase unlocks screen mirroring, removes all ads and lifts the cast queue limit — no subscriptions, ever. Bring your own library to life on every screen and speaker in your home.

What's new

Library, rebuilt: browse by Album and Artist, resume from Recently Played, and save your own playlists. Search by album, artist or track and add them to the Queue. New glass design and a landscape nav rail. For TVs and projectors that ignore .srt files, PhimCa can now embed subtitles into the video, and you can pick the track in-app. Fixes: cast queues no longer stall or skip tracks, music pauses when headphones disconnect and resumes after a call, and cover art stays put.
