The picture freezes. The sound drops out, comes back, drops out again. Anyone who knows IPTV knows the ritual: switch away, switch back, reload. You know the frozen frame. Neverlag is built differently. KEEPS PLAYING We didn't guess why IPTV stalls. We measured it, stream by stream, over weeks. Neverlag is the result: up to a minute of the running programme held in reserve. If your provider drops out for a moment, the stream plays on from that reserve while the connection recovers. You see none of it. Neverlag reconnects only when the reserve runs low, and it tells you that it did. WHEN 4K WON'T COME THROUGH If the 4K stream keeps stalling, Neverlag switches to Full HD and says so on screen. One button takes you back to 4K. WHEN YOU SWITCH NETWORKS Wi-Fi to mobile data, home to hotel: the stream plays on from the reserve while Neverlag reconnects over the new network. If your provider still rejects the new connection because the old one is counted as active, you get the reason and a reconnect button instead of a black screen. KNOW WHOSE FAULT IT IS Every session is measured. When something does stutter, Neverlag says in plain words whether it was your provider, your network or your device, and a network test checks your line against a neutral server. A verdict only for what was measured: no issue, no verdict. SET UP APPLE TV FROM YOUR IPHONE No typing server addresses with the remote. Your Apple TV shows a code, your iPhone or Mac sends the credentials over your home network. ONE SUBSCRIPTION FOR ALL YOUR APPLE DEVICES Mac, iPhone, iPad and Apple TV: one subscription, Family Sharing included. Favourites, tags and playback positions follow you via iCloud. GUIDE, RECORDINGS, MOVIES Seven-day guide with recordings straight from it, as far as your provider supplies programme data.
