There’s been an upgrade to the popular DoubleTwist AirSync app which adds a serious new feature that Android phones can take advantage of. Using the feature known as “AirTwist,” Android phones can now stream video wirelessly to a TV through an Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 game console. More DLNA devices are also coming.

Once enabled, the AirTwist feature in the DoubleTwist app makes the user’s Android device appear on the game platform’s media menu where it can stream movies, photos and music directly to the TV . The upgrade is free and is compatible with devices running Android 1.6 and above.

Owwanthony

Air twist is not a free upgrade, it is 4.99 to use this feature! Thanks for the wasted time!

  It’s a “free update” if you already own the AirSync companion app.
