Supported apps for an enhanced experience with Airfoil for Windows

This article is about a retired product. Existing owners can still download a copy of the software from our Legacy page, but it is no longer officially supported, nor available for purchase.


Airfoil for Windows can stream audio from just about any application running on your Windows machine. With a number of popular audio applications, an enhanced experience offering metadata and remote control is provided.

These Windows applications offer an enhanced experience with Airfoil:

We hope to add more supported sources, but we need help from developers to make their audio applications scriptable. See Supporting Additional Apps for more details!

An Enhanced Audio Receiving Experience

When you stream audio from supported sources through Airfoil Satellite (or the older Airfoil Speakers), an Apple TV, or many third-party AirPlay devices, you'll see enhanced metadata, including track titles and album artwork. These outputs will also be able to remotely control audio playback in the source application.

In the screenshot above, for instance, Airfoil Satellite for Windows is receiving audio from iTunes, via Airfoil. Album art and track titles are being shown, and remote control buttons are available to control playback.

MacOS Applications Offering an Enhanced Experience

An enhanced experience with many more applications is possible with Airfoil for Mac. For details on supported Mac applications, see the Supported Apps for an Enhanced Experience With Airfoil for Mac page.
