I have a machine with Ubuntu installed and simple speakers connected to this machine via cable. I want to be able to cast music on this machine via my iPhone. Is it possible? What software should I use?

Simply pairing your Ubuntu machine and iPhone over Bluetooth does the trick.– FazilCommented Jun 17, 2017 at 20:17
