## What is Lit IPTV Player?

Lit IPTV is the smart IPTV player built for your playlists. Import your M3U playlist or Xtream Codes login and get a fast, modern IPTV player with a full EPG guide, live TV recording, offline downloads, and cloud sync across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

IMPORTANT: Lit IPTV is a media player ONLY. This app does NOT provide, host, or stream any TV channels, video content, or media files. You must have your own IPTV subscription and playlist URL (M3U, M3U8, or Xtream Codes) from a legally authorized provider. We do not sell or resell IPTV subscriptions.

SUPPORTED FORMATS
• Xtream Codes API
• M3U / M3U8 playlists
• EPG via XMLTV — provider EPG, community guides, or your own custom EPG URL
• Multiple playlists and multiple Xtream accounts — switch in one tap

LIVE TV RECORDER (PRO — NEW)
Record any live TV channel to your device with one tap. Recordings save locally and are browsable in the Files app — play them in our player or any third-party video app. Your recordings stay on your device; we never receive them.

CATCH-UP & REPLAY (PRO — NEW)
Missed a show? On catch-up channels, scroll back through the TV guide and replay past programmes — as far back as your provider's archive allows. Switch between replays right inside the player, pick any moment to rewind to, and download a replay to watch offline. Continue Catch-up remembers where you left off.

ENHANCED EPG THAT WORKS
Full 24-hour TV guide per channel, refreshed in the background. Combine your provider's EPG with community guides or paste your own XMLTV URL (Pro). Instant guide lookups with no freezing, even on huge playlists.

RICH MOVIE & SERIES METADATA
Posters, backdrops, cast, trailers, ratings, and similar titles — resolved automatically for your IPTV library. Trending and Top 10 rows, mood shelves, and themed search.

OFFLINE DOWNLOADS (PRO)
Queue movies and TV episodes for offline viewing. Downloads continue in the background, resume automatically, and subtitles are fetched in your preferred language.

CLOUD SYNC ACROSS DEVICES
Sign in once and your Xtream accounts, M3U playlists, watch history, favorites, custom lists, and EPG preferences follow you across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

SMART PLAYER
Hardware-accelerated playback with adaptive buffering. Native Picture-in-Picture, subtitle search with styling control, audio track selection, playback speed, aspect ratio modes, and a Player Lock against accidental taps — great for kids.

• Custom Lists — synced channel collections
• Multi-account switching for power users
• Stream quality badges and smart sorting
• Smart search — typo-tolerant and fast

### 5/5 — Great Player After Trying Many - Great Support

*2026-07-01*

I have tried many, many different IPTV players that claim to be great.  I am a big fan of Tivimate on Google TV and have been trying to find something of similar quality and capabilities for MacOS and iOS.  

This is the closest thing to functionality and customization within Tivimate.  I had some questions on settings, etc. and the developer responded right away via email, even making some changes that were immediately released in app updates.  The developer also has listened to suggested changes and I truly believe that this app will only get better.

It’s worth downloading and I think you’ll be more than pleasantly surprised.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your positive feedback :) We hope to make it the best out there and your feedback really helps :)

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-06-13*

Bad

### 2/5 — Has potential but VERY new

*2026-05-27*

The player itself is solid and I even paid for the lifetime to support the development. however it needs more frequent updates that include feature parity with other players.  They have to get to feature parity quickly or people won’t adopt it.  The fact it’s marketed as cross platform is perfect for many but the current lack of appleTV support means it’s not really there yet. 

The user login seems to work and pickup the lifetime pro purchased from Apple Store even on android devices so that’s good. 

Does not seem to be a limit to devices. 

The guide view should be the default for live TV

There’s no player in picture when in guide view

It doesn’t support more than one XC server (I’m told that’s coming)

It doesn’t support appleTV (yet)

Very few player settings available yet

Player view has no “info” like playback quality, audio info etc 

Don’t see any recording options

Like o said it’s got potential so happy to adjust the stat rating as it’s improved.  They need to use TiviMate and UHF as the gold standard for comparing features BUT more than that add things they don’t have.  Tivate doesn’t sync across devices so they have that at least but UHF does.  Both can record/DVR as well.  So what else can set this one apart to make it stand out from the others besides cross platform, sync and a lifetime subscription option (UHF has that as well)

**Developer response:** Dear CColotti,

Thank you so much for the constructive feedback. We have made a recent huge update to our app following yours and many other customer's feedback. We have tried to incorporate most of the features you requested and others are in the pipeline as well. We welcome you to try our most recent update and please do share any feedback and further feature requests via our app or email us at litpublishinguk@gmail.com. Your support means a lot to us and we hope you continue using Lit IPTV.

Thank you once again.

Regards

### How often is Lit IPTV updated?

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.45 — 2026-08-24

• Downloads rebuilt from the ground up: proper resume, background downloading, per-download pause, and a progress bar that only moves forward.

• Fixed live TV recordings on iPhone and iPad that produced an empty file.

• Fixed a recording being deleted when another recording of the same channel was removed.

• See at a glance which of your servers are online, with a warning before a subscription expires.

• Resuming a series from Continue Watching now queues the next episode.

• Dutch is now supported.

• Stability and performance improvements throughout.

### 1.44 — 2026-08-11

Subtitles in your language

• Subtitle search now covers over 100 languages, including Indonesian, Malay, Vietnamese, Thai, Dutch, Polish and many more. Pick your language once in Settings and every search uses it.

• Fixed Portuguese and Chinese subtitle search returning no results at all.

• Downloads now work with providers that only allow one connection at a time. Instead of failing, a download waits its turn and starts automatically — and the app no longer competes with itself while fetching the TV guide.

• Fixed playlist channels that opened to a grey screen instead of playing. Playlists that require a specific User-Agent now work.

• Signing in to a server now sticks — the app no longer switches back to your playlist the next time you open it.

• Stability and performance improvements throughout.

### 1.43 — 2026-07-25

Separate favorites and Continue Watching for every server

If you use more than one playlist, this update is for you.

• Favorites are now kept separately for each server. Adding a film, series or channel on one playlist no longer makes it appear in another — and removing it only removes it from the list you're actually using. Your existing favorites are sorted onto the right servers automatically; nothing is lost.

• Continue Watching now shows only what you watched on the server you're currently using. Switch playlists and you'll see that library's progress, exactly where you left off. Switch back and everything is still there.

• Manage Categories has been rebuilt. Each category now has a switch that shows whether it's actually visible, and changes save the moment you make them — no more selecting items and then applying. Show all, Hide all and Invert now act instantly on whatever you've searched for.

• Stability and performance improvements throughout.

### 1.42 — 2026-07-18

• Catch-Up & Replay (Pro): rewind live TV and replay past programmes on catch-up channels.
• Stream quality badges (HD/FHD/4K), quality filters and smarter sorting.
• Fixed: switching accounts now keeps each account's playlists, server and watch history separate.
• Smoother Home and TV Shows.
• More bug fixes and performance improvements.

### 1.41 — 2026-07-17

• Catch-Up & Replay (Pro): rewind live TV and replay past programmes on catch-up channels.
• Stream quality badges (HD/FHD/4K), quality filters and smarter sorting.
• Fixed: switching accounts now keeps each account's playlists, server and watch history separate.
• Smoother Home and TV Shows.
• More bug fixes and performance improvements.
