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.

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.
