Airfoil 5.12.8 for Mac, from Rogue Amoeba, sends any audio playing on your Mac to speakers and receivers around your home. macOS normally limits AirPlay output to certain apps and a single destination. Airfoil removes those limits: music from Spotify, a browser, or any other app can play through your Apple TV, HomePod, Chromecast, Sonos speakers and Bluetooth devices.

Better still, you can play to several outputs at once, in sync, and group speakers for different rooms. A free companion app, Airfoil Satellite, turns other Macs, PCs and phones into receivers and lets you control playback remotely. It is made for anyone building a flexible multi-room setup from hardware they already own.

Key Features

  • Streams audio from any Mac app, or all system audio, to AirPlay, Cast, Sonos and Bluetooth devices
  • Plays to multiple speakers at the same time with everything kept in sync
  • Speaker groups, auto-transmit on launch, menu bar mode and a built-in equalizer
  • Silence monitor can disconnect automatically when audio stops playing
  • Free Airfoil Satellite companion receives audio on other computers and mobile devices

Is Airfoil free?
Rogue Amoeba offers a free trial download. In trial mode, noise is overlaid after ten minutes of streaming in a session. Buying a license key unlocks the same download for unlimited use.

Can it play to different speaker brands together?
Yes. Airfoil can send one stream to a mix of AirPlay, Chromecast, Sonos and Bluetooth outputs at the same time, and it keeps them playing in sync.
