In this guide, we will show you the step to stream or play music from your phone through the speaker of your PC. If the speakers on your smartphone aren’t working also the expected lines, then there exists a nifty method through which you could stream the device’s audio using your PC’s in-built speakers or even the external speakers connected to your PC. This is possible thanks to the Advanced Audio Distribution Profile Bluetooth technology.
Also known as A2DP, it comes built-in in near about every Android smartphone and Windows PC [Windows 7, 10, and 11, just not on Windows 8]. What is even more intriguing is the fact that you could control the volume of the audio directly from your smartphone itself, there is no need to interact with the PC. So without further ado, let’s check out how this could be carried out.
How to Stream or Play Music from Phone through PC Speaker
- To begin with, turn on the Bluetooth on your smartphone.
- Then open the Settings menu on your PC via the Windows+I shortcut.
- After that, go to Bluetooth and Devices, click on Add Device, and select Bluetooth from the list.
- Now select your phone from the list. You will now get a pairing request on your PC as well as the phone.
- Click on Connect on your PC and hit Pair on your device. That’s it. Your device is now paired with your PC.

- Moving on, now download and install the Bluetooth Audio Receiver app from Microsoft Store.
