The most powerful IPTV experience on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV 4K — built by people who use IPTV every day. Snappier does not provide any content. You bring your own provider, and you are responsible for the content you stream. BUILT FOR SERIOUS VIEWERS • Two powerful media players: KSPlayer (native Picture-in-Picture, HDR10, Dolby Vision) and VLC • Picture-in-Picture on iPhone and iPad • Multi-screen view with up to 9 simultaneous streams • Automatic display-mode matching on Apple TV 4K WATCH EVERYTHING • Live TV, Movies, TV Series, and Catchup in SD, HD, and 4K (provider dependent) • Xtream Codes login and M3U / Xtream M3U import; TinyURL-style short links supported • External EPG URL support, including IPTVEditor and other 3rd-party EPGs • Lightning-fast M3U and EPG parsing in the background or foreground, optimised for huge playlists • Multiple playlists with one-tap update of all playlists or EPGs, plus a pinned default playlist that opens on launch • Search across every playlist at once — channels, movies, TV series, EPG entries, and actor names • Multiple user profiles, each with their own favourites, watch history, and parental settings TAILOR IT YOUR WAY • Custom categories to group your favourites exactly how you want • Super Playlists — combine items from multiple playlists into one curated view • Rename channels, categories, and VOD items (scoped per category if you like) • Per-playlist tag mapping for awkward M3U files • Sort by date added, name, original order, or any custom order you choose • Favourites, parental controls (Live TV and Movie categories), and a one-off network stream URL player SMART METADATA • TMDB-powered metadata with multi-language plot descriptions, posters, backdrops, cast, and ratings • Manual TMDB match overrides — fix the wrong-poster problem once and have it stick across devices • JustWatch streaming-availability data (via TMDB) • OpenSubtitles integration plus internal subtitle and audio-track selection • Skip Intro and Skip Credits powered by TheIntroDB • Trakt integration — scrobbling, Continue Watching, Recently Watched, and Recently Aired RECORD AND DOWNLOAD • Scheduled recordings for live channels • Download movies and episodes for offline viewing PLAYBACK, YOUR WAY • Auto-save and auto-resume for movies and TV episodes • Internal audio-track and subtitle selection • Video de-interlacing (KSPlayer) • Aspect ratio, buffer size, and audio delay adjustment • Skip forward / backward • Swipe gestures on iPhone/iPad for quick volume and brightness control • Alternative list view for Live TV alongside the standard grid • Viewing Statistics dashboard — see what you actually watch and when SYNC ACROSS YOUR DEVICES Secure cloud sync keeps your favourites, custom categories, renames, watch progress, scheduled recordings, and metadata fixes in step across every Apple device you own. Each device controls its own sync preferences, and sync can be disabled per playlist. NOTES Not every provider supports every feature — for best results use an Xtream Codes–compatible provider. Free-to-air M3U playlists work but with limited functionality. Apple TV HD is supported, but Apple TV 4K is strongly recommended. Data sources: TMDB, JustWatch (via TMDB), OpenSubtitles, Trakt, TheIntroDB. Players: KSPlayer and VLC. Support: join us on Discord — the server address is in the app under Settings. IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ Snappier IPTV is a player only — it doesn't include any playlists, channels, movies, or TV shows. Just bring your own provider or M3U source, and whatever you choose to stream is your responsibility.
