# SberBoom Remote: reconstructing local speaker control and StarOS messages

> SberBoom Remote implements Android and Windows clients for local control of SberBoom speakers over StarOS WebSocket messages. It ports the TLV protocol from a credited Home Assistant integration, then records pairing behaviour, opcodes and responses measured on a SberBoom Mini. An accompanying investigation examines the official Салют APK for device settings and their transport.
