With smart phones becoming a staple in day-to-day music listening you'd think that they'd be sporting decent quality speakers. Well that isn't the case, unless of course you're rocking an HTC One. You could be one of the folks with an S4 that has Group Play installed which allows up to 8 devices to blast music almost creating a stereo/surround sound-esque effect. Everyone else sadly has to put up with the one speaker on the back of their device. Well, not anymore as XDA member jekatt created an app that emulates that very function. SoundSeeder works on any device with Android 2.2 and up. With SoundSeeder you'll be able to:

Stream and spread your music at home or on your party to multiple devices in different rooms.
Start a portable Hotspot and listen to your music via SoundSeeder on multiple devices wherever you want.
Similar to Samsung Group Play – Share Music™
Supports mp3, mp4, m4a, aac, 3gp, ogg, flac Media formats.

The music player itself requires Android 4.1 but you'll be able to use any device with a speaker that's packing Froyo or newer. With it you'll be able to sync up to 16 devices at once and they don't even have to be in the same room. The free version of the app will give you a four minute demo mode and purchasing the app will unlock it's full capabilities. As per the norm we have your download links, QR codes, video and gallery after the break. If you and you're friends are wanting to rock out with your Android devices this is the app to get.
