About

IPTV Supreme

Features
Read full description

IPTV Supreme plays the playlists you already have. It ships no channels, no films and no series of its own. You bring an M3U or M3U8 link, open a playlist file, or sign in to your provider — and the app turns that list into something worth using. YOUR PLAYLISTS, IN ONE LIBRARY Keep as many playlists as you like side by side and open one in a tap. Each remembers its own channels, favourites and groups. Links refresh in the background on a schedule you choose; files are re-read from wherever you keep them, so editing the original is enough. A REAL TV GUIDE Point it at an XMLTV guide, or sign in to a provider that publishes one, and every channel carries what is on now, what is next, and the whole week's schedule. Set a reminder on a programme and you are told five minutes before it starts. LIVE TV, FILMS AND SERIES A provider account brings its live channels, its film catalogue and its series — seasons, episodes, plots and posters — into the same app, with search across all of it. CATCH-UP Where your provider offers an archive, the programmes that have already aired play straight from the guide. ON THE BIG SCREEN AirPlay to an Apple TV or an AirPlay 2 screen, with a choice of routing so that a VPN on your iPhone still applies to the picture. Picture in Picture, audio that keeps playing when the screen locks, and pinch to zoom or fill the screen when a channel's picture does not fit it. BUILT FOR IPAD A sidebar for the library, a grid or a list for channels, and Multiview: up to four channels at once, with the sound coming from whichever one you choose. KEEP IT TIDY Hide the groups you never watch, reorder the ones you do, and lock any of them behind a parental PIN. Favourites and recents put what you actually watch at the top. ACROSS YOUR DEVICES iCloud sync carries your playlists, favourites and group rules between your iPhone and iPad. Your provider password never leaves the device it was typed on, and neither does the parental PIN. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no tracking, no analytics, no advertising. The app talks to your provider and to nobody else. A NOTE ON CONTENT IPTV Supreme is a player, in the way that a music player is a player for your own files. It does not provide, host, resell or index any channel, film or series, and no playlist is built into it. What you watch, and whether you are entitled to watch it, is between you and whoever supplies your playlist. Requires a playlist. Works with M3U and M3U8 playlists and with Xtream-compatible provider logins. It plays HLS (m3u8), MP4, M4V and MOV, live channels sent as raw MPEG-TS, and MKV films and episodes whose video and sound Apple devices can decode — H.264 or HEVC video with AAC, AC-3 or E-AC-3 sound. When a file cannot be played, AVI or XviD for instance, the app says why rather than failing silently.
