Best free multistreaming apps and services for iPhone
From an iPhone you can multistream two ways. Device-side apps such as EveryCord (three outputs, free, no watermark) and Larix Broadcaster (multiple outputs with Premium) send a separate stream to each platform, so upload need grows with each output. Cloud services such as Restream, Castr, OneStream Live, Streamlabs Ultra and PRISM Plus take one upload and fan it out, usually for a price or with branding. Each fact about another product is what its page said on October 21, 2026.

Device-side or cloud: what it means for your upload
A device-side app encodes one stream per destination on the phone and sends each itself. If one output drops the others keep running, but each output needs its own upload. EveryCord uses about 3 Mbps per output, so three outputs need about 9 Mbps.
A cloud service takes one stream from the phone and copies it to every platform on its servers, so upload stays at one stream, but it usually charges or adds branding beyond a free tier.
EveryCord is made by Symaro, LLC, which also publishes this blog, so this roundup is not independent. Each fact about another product is what its own page said on October 21, 2026.
