## What is Sportem?

Sportem turns your own M3U playlist into a fast, clean live TV player for iPhone and iPad.

Add a playlist once — paste a URL or import an .m3u / .m3u8 file — and every channel in it is ready to watch in seconds.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Add playlists by link or file — paste an HTTP/HTTPS playlist URL, or import an .m3u / .m3u8 file from Files (up to 10 MB)
• Find anything fast — browse by category, search channels by name, filter down to what you actually watch
• Pick up where you left off — recently played channels stay at the top
• Favourites — tap the heart on the channels you watch most and keep them in one list
• Full-screen player — brightness and orientation controls, nothing cluttering the picture
• Picture in Picture — keep watching in a floating window while you use other apps
• AirPlay — send any channel to your Apple TV or AirPlay-compatible TV
• Background audio — keep listening with the screen off
• Live football — today's fixtures and kick-off times in one tab

SPORTEM PRO
• Unlimited playlists — keep providers, regions and backups side by side
• Unlimited favourites — star every channel you watch
• No interruptions, cancel any time

The free version includes one playlist, so you can try the whole app before you subscribe.

NO CHANNELS INCLUDED
Sportem is a player, not a provider. It does not supply, host, stream or resell any channels, streams or media, and nothing is preloaded. You bring your own M3U playlist from a service you have the right to use.

SUBSCRIPTION
Sportem Pro is available as a monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription. Prices are shown in the app in your local currency. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel any time in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions.
