What is it?

MicYou lets you use a phone as a microphone for a PC. An Android app and a separate iOS app send audio to a desktop server over Wi-Fi or USB (ADB). For phones without the app, Web mode streams audio from a mobile browser after you scan a QR code on the desktop.

The desktop side ships as a full GUI, a CLI, and an interactive TUI dashboard. Audio can pass through a processing pipeline with AI and traditional noise suppression, echo cancellation, dereverberation, equalizer, gain control, and voice activity detection. Live stats cover level, bitrate, latency, jitter, packet loss, and buffer status.

The processed signal is routed into a virtual audio device: VB-CABLE on Windows, PipeWire on Linux, or BlackHole on macOS. Calls, games, streaming, and recording apps can then select it as an input. The project is built with Tauri 2, Rust, and Vue 3 on desktop, and Kotlin with Jetpack Compose on Android.
