Streaming that survives the background

Real IRL streaming means checking maps, replying to a message, or pocketing the phone — while the stream keeps running.

Foreground service

One Tap IRL runs the stream in an Android foreground service, the mechanism Android provides for work that must not be killed. Switching apps or turning the screen off does not stop your broadcast.

Battery reality

Streaming is honest work: encoder + modem typically draw 8–15% battery per hour depending on device, resolution and signal strength. A small power bank effectively removes the limit.

Heat management

Hardware encoding keeps thermals manageable, and the adaptive engine reduces load rather than letting the phone throttle mid-stream.
