Qualcomm Atheros' Skifta app brings DLNA media streaming to iOS

[![Qualcomm Atheros' Skifta app comes to iOS, delivers equal opportunity media streaming ](http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/boomskifta-hed.jpg) ](http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/10/qualcomm-atheros-skifta-app-ios/)

[Android users have been using Skifta](http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/03/skifta-android-app-nabs-dlna-certification-tablets-and-smartpho/), the mobile media streaming platform, for a couple years now, shooting media [to and from their phones](http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/27/skifta-leaves-beta-streams-media-to-and-from-your-android-devic/) and tablets wirelessly. Today, Apple users can get on the action, as Qualcomm Atheros has quietly released a version that brings the power of [DLNA](http://www.engadget.com/tag/DLNA/) to iOS. That means that iPhones, iPod Touches and iPads running iOS 5 or later can now stream content directly to and from a host of devices, including stereos, TVs and the PS3. Sound good? You'll find a gallery of screenshots of the Skifta's UI below, and should that sufficiently pique your interest, hit the source to grab the app for yourself.
