Extortionist pricing
Forces payment for even basic file formats like MKV. Extortionist pricing even if you’ve bought a previous version of the app.
Greedy devs that don’t deserve a cent.

Great app to replace Plex missing a couple of key features
If you have a Plex server, this is a great replacement for the native app. On AppleTV specifically, it’s a breath of fresh air. There are just a couple of features missing hence 4 stars. What needs adding IMHO:
Live TV, option to add a tuner either by using the server configuration from the Plex Server or, by adding a tuner on the same network. Of course the ability to setup show recording to the Plex server goes along with this.
Better browsing of friends’ Plex libraries, by this I mean, where a friend has added your Plex ID as having access to their libraries.
Currently on monthly pro with a view to lifetime, maybe, if I decide to stick with it.

Used to be great
This app used to be great, it could play most formats. And it was elegant. It showed all that you had in your library very beautifully. But initially some of the more premium Codecs like Dolby required pro and hence was a bit of an annoyance. But overall it was still pretty good.
Now it’s become almost worthless because they have added even some of the most basic codecs and formats into Pro requiring you to pay for a pro subscription just to play basic video. That’s not acceptable. It shouldn’t cost that much.

Update: The app seizes up, but support doesn’t answer my emails. Reported bugs/problems are ignored
I use mainly on Apple TV and sometimes on my Mac. App hangs on both Mac and Apple TV. It’s very frustrating. I have reported a number of issues but they have been ignored completely. In short, fair app, bad support.
Amazon Rain ForestGet this app!
This app does everything I need and more. Fantastic in every way!
T’was the best
No longer can watch on the external display only. Now the content must play on the iPhone screen too. Please fix this!
Metadaten-Cache Problem - gelöst!
Ich bin echt am verzweifeln!!! Ich kann die APP nur noch für ein paar Sekunden öffnen… dann kommt immer die Info : Metadaten-Cache Fehler… ich habe schon Apps gelöscht, alles neu gestartet… es klappt nix! Das Problem ist ja schon länger bekannt, aber es gibt keine Hilfe! Was kann ich denn noch machen???
Update: wir hatten einen Strom- sowie Internetausfall. Ich habe - nachdem Strom wieder da war - aus Frust alles an APPs auf dem Apple TV gelöscht und einige wieder neu geladen. Warum auch immer , jetzt läuft alles wieder. Vielleicht hatte Apple TV nicht genug Speicher mehr frei? Auf jeden Fall ist alles wieder gut jetzt 🤩

Vielen Dank für das Update! Es freut uns sehr zu hören, dass inzwischen wieder alles funktioniert. Danke, dass du uns wissen lässt, wie es ausgegangen ist!
Keeps freezing every time I pause/play/anything
No idea why it does it, but I’ll stick with the plex app instead.

キャスト時字幕を反映出来ない
Chromecast withTV HD を使って今迄は自作動画に複数音声や複数字幕をmp4ファイルに入れ込みキャストして再生出来ていたのに、infuseのいつのバージョンからは不明だが音声は切り替え可能だが字幕が反映されなくなってしまった。
iPhoneは16Pro iOS18.7.8
愛用していただけに残念で仕方ない。勿論iPhoneやパソコンでの再生では問題ない。
しかもAmazon fire TVのアプリからのキャストでは字幕は正常に反映されるがfire TVはキャストは標準対応ではなくアプリで強制的にキャストしてるので対応音声等や対応動画の種類も少ない為、使ってなかった。
どちらにせよ、以前はGoogleキャストで全く問題なかったのでinfuseのあるバージョンからの不具合と思います。
仮にiOS27にしなければならないのであれば残念。アプリの説明にはiOS18以降と明記してあるのに…

ご不便をおかけして申し訳ありません。Google Cast で字幕が表示されない件について詳しく確認したいので、Infuse > 設定の「問題を報告」からレポートを送っていただけますか。可能であれば、問題が発生するファイルの詳細もご記載ください。ぜひ調査させていただきます。
Poor customer service.
I was scammed out of one month free with a yearly subscription. I tried to contact firecore and they simply ignored me. App has a poor layout. Plex is better. Avoid paying for this app as firecore do not value their customers.
The king for remuxes
Infuse is an absolute delight to use, and it runs everything you throw at it. Completely recommend it.
⭐️⭐️⭐️
3 Stars! It may have horrible UI but I can watch my favourite cartoons in full episodes! But the downloads LITERALLY delete episodes/seasons PS: it needs to be fixed.

Only good way to use Jellyfin server on AppleTV
Paid for a 99$ lifetime subscription just for that. Looks really nice too. All the alternatives just are missing features or unreliable. Usually I don’t prefer paying for apps to use my own server but this was well worth
Great App — worth the cost
I’ll admit, I tried just about every “free” app similar to this one on the App Store to avoid paying the lifetime tier.
(I avoid monthly subscriptions when possible:”
Initially, the lifetime cost seemed like a lot. At a glance the GUI looked similar to the free apps. Not quite as polished or feature rich, but similar.
So I finally gave in because the other apps just didn’t work, they crashed, formats are hit and miss, no Dolby Atmos or look as clean.
This app has a clean polished interface, easy to use with Jellyfin, very responsive, customizable, works with just about every format I use, and useful ongoing updates.
This may not matter to many people but something worth recognizing is the fact that when the developer(s) update the app — they actually take the time document the updates or modifications that were made when clicking update in the App Store.
Vs the lazy, generic developer update notes: “fixed various bugs for better user experience.”
I highly recommend this app. Don’t waste your time with trial and error with other apps. Save your time and pay for high quality work.
Note: I was not paid or given any sort of promotion to write this review. In fact, I hardly write good reviews. But I believe in giving credit when quality and service is exceptional.
Also - maybe I missed the feature or perhaps there is a companion app that works with my music library in Jellyfin, but it would be a nice feature to have.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review and support! We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We also appreciate the feedback about Jellyfin music libraries and will keep it in mind as we continue improving Infuse.
Far better than Plex
I have Plex running on my desktop to run one TV, but use Infuse to cut out the need for a server. I’ve got a 205TB array of movies and TV shows, all in large format. I don’t need to the overhead of conversion Plex requires in streaming. I would love if there were profiles available on Infuse, just to keep watching history for people separated.

La meilleure tout simplement
Je suis un utilisateur depuis le début, mais je pense que le développement est pas suffisant, il manque un peut d’innovation et de prise de risque, comme rajouter la prise en charge de HomeKit comme dans certaines applications concurrentes pour pouvoir allumer et éteindre les lumières à la lecture ou l’arrêt d’un film, ou encore la prise en charge de l’ip Tv.
Sinon ras tout simplement l’application que j’utilise tout les jours depuis le début et jamais déçu des performances.

Merci beaucoup pour votre soutien depuis toutes ces années ! Nous apprécions également vos suggestions concernant HomeKit et l’IPTV. Nous cherchons toujours de nouvelles façons d’améliorer Infuse, et nous garderons ces idées à l’esprit pour de futures évolutions.

Actually bought lifetime pro…!
I was using 8player until fairly recently, when they took a good app and suddenly demanded a subscription. Usual reaction on my part: no. Limped along with a couple of other free apps for a while (VLC is way too basic), and finally got tired of it last weekend. I was an early adopter of Apple TV Gen 2 jailbreaking: these guys were legendary in the mod community and their aTV Black was installed by yours truly. I’ve been on firecore’s mailing list ever since, but only realised what infuse could do for me this weekend. Finally downloaded it and… holy cow, this really is was I was looking for. Watched a whole bunch of stuff on the trial, weighed up the monthly sub, then decided lifetime was the way. It’s genuinely worth it. ICloud sync appears perfect, the only fly in the ointment was buying the licence on the ATV 4K: authentication with the bank simply would not work. I downloaded on my iPhone, bought the licence there, and… both Apple TVs instantly sync’d everything including the licence.
The UI is just lovely, it’s taken my local NAS collection and turned it into a first class app amongst the streamers in there.
Really great app if you want to use a local media server. I’m just using SMB but it looks like it functions with a shedload more.
No regrets. Lifetime is expensive, but not when you consider what it brings back to life. This really is like Kodi-lite on ATV. And I know: I’ve built several RPi Kodi machines!
