## What is XPlayer?

XPlayer is a clean, fast player for your own IPTV / M3U playlists. Add your M3U/M3U8 link or a local file and enjoy live channels with grouping, search, an EPG guide, and favorites — on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

XPlayer does NOT provide, host, or include any channels or content. You bring your own playlist; XPlayer simply plays it.

FEATURES
• Import any M3U / M3U8 — paste a URL or pick a local file
• Channel grouping and instant name search
• EPG (XMLTV) programme guide, with a clear empty state when a channel has no guide
• Favorites — one tap to keep the channels you watch most
• Clean, distraction-free playback with simple controls
• Universal app: iPhone, iPad, and Mac from one purchase
• Open source

XPlayer is a tool for playing playlists you already have the right to access. You are responsible for the content of any source you add and for complying with the laws and rights in your region.


## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 2.6.0 — 2026-08-19

Casting Fixed
• Fixed casting finding no devices on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. The cast panel used to sit on "No devices found" — TVs and DLNA renderers on your network are now discovered properly.

Playback Stability
• Fixed occasional endless reconnect loops on live streams. The player used to mistake normal live buffering for a stall and kept reconnecting.

Personalization
• New theme colors — 8 presets, switchable anytime from the side drawer under Interface. Works in both light and dark mode.

Other
• Side drawer reordered — Sources & Guide moved to the top for quicker access.

### 2.5.8 — 2026-07-13

No release notes.
