Works With
Third-party apps and tools that work together with BlueCaster, as told to us by their authors or users in the issues.
These are not part of BlueCaster and are not made, tested or supported by the BlueCaster project. They are listed only because someone reported that they work with BlueCaster. We take no responsibility if one does not work, stops working after an update of either program, or causes any problem. Please check each project’s own license and documentation, and report problems with a tool to that tool’s project first.

Apps and tools
| Tool | What it does with BlueCaster | Needs | License | Reported by |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EncoDeck | Earbud and headphone control (battery, noise control, EQ, gestures) for OPPO, Sony, HUAWEI, Xiaomi and others. Connects to the core’s pipe as a second client: shows the stream state and codec, starts and stops profiles, sets the AVRCP volume and helps with the WinUSB assignment. Earbud settings over BlueCaster’s own Bluetooth link use the RFCOMM passthrough | EncoDeck 1.11.0 or later. RFCOMM passthrough: BlueCaster 2.0.2-beta.10 or later (tried only in the emulator so far) | GPL-3.0 | Its author, #194 |

For tool authors
Tools talk to the core over the same per-user named pipe as the BlueCaster window. The protocol, the methods meant for tools, the RFCOMM passthrough and the compatibility rules (feature check, the pipe’s rename in 3.0.0) are on Integration (IPC). The protocol and the core may still change during the 2.0.2 betas.
