Hey!koFor iPhone and Mac
Your iPhone becomes your Mac's speaker.
Your Mac's sound plays on your iPhone, over your Wi-Fi. The sound never leaves your home, no account.

How it works
Three steps to start.
Hey!ko comes in two parts: Hey!ko on your iPhone, and Hey!ko Link, a small free app that lives in your Mac's menu bar.
Install Hey!ko Link
On your Mac. It picks up whatever your Mac plays — music, video, games, calls — and sends it to your iPhone.
Type the code
Open Hey!ko on your iPhone: a 4-digit code appears. Pick your iPhone in the Mac's list, and type that code.
Listen
Your Mac's sound comes out of your iPhone, or the headphones connected to it. Even when it's locked.
What it does
Made so you can forget it's there.
All of your Mac's sound
Not just one app: everything your Mac plays goes to the iPhone.
Only hear the iPhone
One switch mutes the Mac while it sends. It speaks again as soon as you stop.
Lock screen
The sound keeps playing with your iPhone in your pocket. A card on the lock screen mutes or stops everything without opening the app.
Video mode
For a video on the Mac, the iPhone keeps its screen on — black, using almost no power — and the sound keeps closer to the picture.
Encrypted link
The sound is encrypted between your two devices. Another device on the Wi-Fi can neither listen in nor pretend to be your iPhone.
The sound stays home
Your Wi-Fi is enough: no server, no account, and the sound never goes over the Internet. The sound goes straight from the Mac to the iPhone.
Honestly
Wi-Fi isn't a cable.
Sound takes about two tenths of a second to travel from the Mac to the iPhone. For music, a podcast or the radio, you won't hear it.
For a video, a slight gap between lips and voice can show. Video mode reduces it; with the iPhone locked, the gap is larger (about three tenths).
Privacy
Your sound never leaves your network.
Hey!ko has no account and no server, and the sound never goes over the Internet: it goes from your Mac to your iPhone, then it's gone. Only the optional purchase goes through Apple's App Store.

Price
Try it, then decide.
Hey!ko gives you enough to try it. If you keep it, you pay once, and that's it. Hey!ko Link, on the Mac, stays free.
