What's New in Chroma

2.9.9

October 24, 2026

New widget: Currently Watching. Your next episode or movie leads with its artwork, and the rest of your list sits below it, each one tap from playing. Choose posters or artwork for the list. On iOS 27, the Movie Poster widget comes in a tall size that shows a full one-sheet. Held upright, the player's volume button now opens a slider, like the TV app's. On iPhone Duo it works folded, open, and in book pose, and the folded screen tucks Picture in Picture and AirPlay into the ··· menu. If the next episode is slow to start, the Up Next card stays up and tells you what it's waiting for. Fixed a Plex sign-in issue. Also: small fixes and improvements.

Really good!

All I wanted was an app where I could watch my mkv movie collection in a virtual cinema and this is that app. My only small gripe is the Spatial Audio doesn’t have head tracking and some of my movies won’t play. But overall this is the best app if you want to feel like you’re in a theater.

Easy to setup and use

Beautiful and seamless video player for digital libraries!

Great app (with one piece of feedback)

This is the only app that I found able to play my Plex library in a theater environment. It works great! One piece of feedback for the developer, when you move to another seat in the theater the animation is a bit nauseating. I’d like the ability to just teleport to the seat. Thanks for making such a great app.

New feature advice

One of the most important new features is the complete environment elements in a real cinema (such as people sitting in the seats, people talking and even some noise), with which you would feel you were really there and not alone and isolated. It is even better if you could invite your friends sitting beside you and watching the same movie.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the positive feedback. The rows will be adjusted as I agree with your statements. I think the custom seat picker idea is awesome, and have noted that feedback.
