Ove TV is a fast, modern player built for one thing: your IPTV playlists. Bring your own M3U URL or Xtream Codes login and watch with a clean, animated interface — on your phone, tablet, or Google TV. Ove TV hosts no channels of its own. It's a neutral player: you bring your own playlist, and you're responsible for having the right to view the content on it. WHAT YOU CAN DO • IPTV playback — add a playlist by M3U URL or Xtream Codes login. Browse channels by group, search instantly, and switch between multiple saved playlists. • Cast to your TV — discover and cast channels to Chromecast / Google Cast from your phone. • Built for Google TV — full remote/D-pad navigation and a TV-optimized layout. (Casting is hidden automatically when running on a TV, since the TV is already the screen you're watching on.) • Channel controls — jump to the next or previous channel in a category, or open a channel drawer to pick any channel without leaving the player. • Favorites — star any channel and find them all in one place. • Lock-screen & notification controls — play, pause, and skip channels from your lock screen or notification shade. • Beautiful, responsive UI — an animated gradient backdrop with frosted-glass panels, light/dark/system themes, and a layout that adapts from phone to tablet to TV. WIDE FORMAT SUPPORT Ove TV plays live HTTP/HLS/TS streams without extra codecs. PRIVACY Ove TV ships with no built-in content and no account. Your playlists stay on your device. Note: Ove TV is a media player only. It does not provide, host, or recommend any channels or streams. You must supply your own legal playlist source.
