## What is Tifo?

Tifo is a fast, beautiful player for your own IPTV service and media servers.
Add your Xtream Codes login, M3U playlist or Stalker portal — or link your Plex, Jellyfin or Emby server — and Tifo turns it all into one organized library of movies, series and live TV, with posters, a full TV guide, and none of the clutter.

PLAYS WHAT OTHERS CAN'T
A built-in VLC engine plays the formats other players choke on — MKV, AVI, MP4, TS and HLS — alongside fast native playback.

ONE ORGANIZED LIBRARY
• Movies, series and live TV in a single library
• IPTV playlists and Plex, Jellyfin or Emby libraries side by side
• Posters and artwork, grouped by category

• Cast and ratings on every movie and series page

BUILT FOR LIVE TV
• Full TV guide (EPG) — what's on now and next
• Catch-up TV — replay programmes your provider archives
• Favourites and resume where you left off
• Watch up to four channels at once in split view

WATCH YOUR WAY
• Picture in Picture and AirPlay
• Multiple audio tracks and subtitles, switchable on the fly

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No ads. No tracking. No account. Everything you add stays on your device.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.5.0 — 2026-08-27

Tifo 1.5 — your home page, four ways. And your media server.

• Home now switches between Home, Live Now, Sport and Movies — each
  appears when your playlist supports it.
• Plex, Jellyfin and Emby: add your media server as a source — its
  movies and shows arrive with posters, cast and ratings.
• Catch-up TV: play past programmes straight from the guide on
  channels your provider archives.
• Live Now: the full timeline guide, right on the home page, over
  channels you pick (Pro).
• Sport: fixtures, league tables and broadcasters for the leagues
  you follow — playable when the channel is in your own playlist.
• Movies: your provider's movies and series in one hub, now with
  cast and ratings.
• Fixed: purchases unlock the app immediately; Plex sign-in no
  longer times out early; the last row of lists no longer hides
  behind the mini-player.

### 1.4.2 — 2026-07-30

Tifo 1.4.2 — hola, olá.

• Tifo now speaks Spanish and Portuguese (Brazil)
• Category Lock: hide adult categories in one tap, lock any category
  behind a 4-digit PIN (Settings → Privacy).
• Playlist expiry notice: Tifo warns you before your provider
  subscription runs out — no more silent dead playlists.
• Mac: Report a Problem now always reachable (via support address).

### 1.4.1 — 2026-07-28

Tifo 1.4.1 — pick your look.

• Themes: System, Light and Dark — plus Tokyo Night and Synthwave.
  Settings → Appearance, one tap to switch.
• iPad: the Edit Home panel now opens as a proper full-height sheet.
• Fixes: theme colors apply instantly everywhere, and movie pages
  keep their cinematic dark look in every theme.
• Reported a bug and were promised an unlock? Email us from
  Settings → Report a Problem — your code is waiting.

### 1.4 — 2026-07-25

Tifo is now free to use.

• Free forever: live TV, EPG, favorites and search — no ads, ever.
  A single one-time purchase unlocks everything else. No subscription.
• Full TV Guide (Pro): search programmes across every channel, and
  browse a timeline grid — in your library and right from the player.
• Autoplay next episode, with a skippable countdown card.
• Edit a playlist without deleting it. Hide channels and categories
  you never watch.
• Choose your player engine per channel ("Play with VLC").
• Subtitle size and contrast settings.
• Storage & Cache screen, diagnostics with private redacted logs.
• Fixed: black screen with sound on some HEVC streams — Tifo now
  switches engines automatically. Live TV resumes properly after
  pausing. Channel +/- works on Apple TV.
• Tifo now speaks French, German, Dutch and Italian — automatic, or
  pick a language in Settings.

### 1.3 — 2026-07-12

Stalker portal support. Connect MAC-based portals (MAG/Ministra) alongside Xtream Codes and M3U — Tifo now speaks all three.

Incognito Mode. What you watch is your business. Flip it on and nothing lands in Recently Played, search history, or resume points — on iPhone, iPad and Apple TV.

One player for everything. Every stream format now gets the full experience — flip channels, browse the guide, and pick audio tracks the same way whether your playlist serves HLS, MPEG-TS or MKV.

Home Screen Layout. New in Settings: make the cards on your Home screen as big or as compact as you like — 100% to 200%.

Sturdier playback. Streams that fail now recover in place with a proper retry instead of a black screen, and the player chrome stays put while it happens.

Polish. Redesigned Apple TV settings and dozens of smaller fixes across both platforms.
