About

SafeOne Player

Features
Read full description

SafeOne is a player for the IPTV playlist you already have. We do not provide or sell content: you connect your own provider's playlist (Xtream Codes or M3U) and SafeOne makes watching it comfortable. Designed in landscape, end to end. No rotating the phone, no menus meant for another screen: every control sits where your thumb reaches while you hold the device. WHAT YOU GET • Live TV with a guide — see what is on every channel straight from the list, with a progress bar. Open the day guide and tap a programme that already aired to watch it again, if your provider allows it. • A complete player — switch audio tracks and subtitles, adjust speed, set the sleep timer, lock the screen so nothing gets tapped by accident, and control brightness and volume by sliding over the video. Swipe sideways to change channel. • Movies and series — with artwork, synopsis, seasons and episodes. Pick up exactly where you left off, on any of your devices. • A home that changes with you — the cover shows what you left unfinished and what is new in your own playlist, with details and synopsis. • Profiles for the household — everyone with their own favourites and continue watching. The kids profile hides adult content. • Light and dark themes — sixteen combinations, for daytime and for watching at night without being dazzled. • Built to keep working — if a channel drops, it reconnects on its own. It stores your catalogue so it opens instantly and keeps going even when your provider has a bad moment. And if something fails, the diagnostics screen tells you exactly where the problem is. HOW TO START Open the app and you will see your device code. You can type your playlist details right there, load them from the web portal, or use the code your reseller gave you. Just want to see it working? Tap "Explorar demo" and try the app with royalty-free content, no sign-up. IMPORTANT SafeOne is only a player. It does not include, sell or offer channels, movies or events. You need your own IPTV playlist, contracted by you with the provider of your choice. Nothing is purchased or renewed inside the app.
