Free Restream alternatives for multistreaming from an iPhone

Published October 21, 2026. By Symaro, LLC, the maker of EveryCord.

Restream's free plan streams to two channels with Restream branding, and paid plans start at $19 a month, as its pricing page said on October 21, 2026. If you stream from an iPhone, EveryCord sends up to three outputs straight from the device for free with no watermark. Castr, OneStream Live, StreamYard, Streamlabs and PRISM Live Studio each cover a different need, and this roundup compares them on free destinations, branding, first paid price and iPhone screen support.

How this roundup was put together

People searching for a Restream alternative usually want more free destinations, no branding on the free plan, or a lower paid price. Streaming from an iPhone adds a fourth point: the service has to take the phone's screen, or accept a feed from an app that does.

Each service is scored on those four points, using what its own pricing page, help center or App Store listing said on October 21, 2026. No service was tried on a device for this post; the table says so where a page did not cover a point.

EveryCord is made by Symaro, LLC, so this roundup is not independent, and each fact about another product is what its own page said on October 21, 2026, as were Restream's.

Each service in brief

EveryCord: free iPhone and iPad app from Symaro, LLC. It streams the screen to YouTube, Twitch or any RTMP or RTMPS server on up to three outputs at once, each from the device. No watermark, no time limit, no paid plan.
Castr: cloud relay with no free plan. Starter is $19.99 a month with 6 destinations after a 7-day trial; plans go up to 30 destinations. From an iPhone, an app such as Larix Broadcaster or EveryCord sends the feed over RTMP.
OneStream Live: cloud service with a free plan of 2 destinations, 720p, 1 GB and 1-hour real-time streams. Basic is $15 a month with 5 destinations. Its app, for iOS 16.6 or later, says it can share your screen in a real-time broadcast.
StreamYard: browser studio. Free carries a StreamYard logo and lists no multistreaming; Essential at $18.99 a month adds 2 destinations and 1080p. Core at $44.99 adds custom RTMP and removes the logo. The iOS app is for guests.
Streamlabs: the free tier lists one portrait and one landscape platform; Ultra, listed as starting at $15.75 a month, adds multiple platforms or custom RTMP. Its iPhone app lets you share the screen or the camera.
PRISM Live Studio: free app from NAVER Corp. with 1 streaming channel on mobile. PRISM Plus at $9.99 a month or $79.99 a year raises that to 6 and removes ads and the watermark, with a 2-week trial for first-time subscribers.

Where Restream may suit you better

You stream from a computer or encoder and want one upload fanned out from the cloud.
You want more than three channels: Restream lists 5 on Professional and 8 on Business.
You use Restream Studio in a browser with guests, and want 1080p studio output, which Restream lists on Professional.

Where EveryCord may suit you better

You stream from an iPhone or iPad and want three outputs free, with no branding.
You do not want a relay. Each EveryCord output goes from the device; if one drops the others keep running.
You also want recording, editing, captions, a facecam on saved videos, co-hosts and clips in the same app.

How to choose

If the source is a phone screen and three destinations are enough, EveryCord costs nothing and needs no relay. If you need five or more destinations, Castr, OneStream Live or Restream's paid plans do that from the cloud, and EveryCord can feed any of them through a custom RTMP output.

If you want a browser studio with guests and layouts, StreamYard and Restream Studio are built for that, at a monthly price for multistreaming. PRISM Plus is the lowest paid step here and runs on the phone itself.
