AnyStream TV

The site becomes the channel. Other apps ask you for an m3u8 link. AnyStream TV asks for the address of a site. Paste it, and AnyStream TV opens the page, finds the channels it carries, and saves them to your library. One import can bring in a whole site's worth of channels at once β and once they're in, you never need to open that site again. No m3u8 to find. No M3U playlist that works today and is dead next week. HOW IT WORKS β’ Paste the address of a site that streams TV β’ Or share the page to AnyStream TV straight from Safari β’ The channels it finds are added to your library, named and sorted β’ Tap one and watch FOR THE SITES YOU ALREADY WATCH AnyStream TV ships with no catalogue and hosts nothing. It organises what you already open in your browser, so the pages you visit for live TV become channels in one app instead of a folder of bookmarks. M3U WORKS TOO Already have a direct .m3u8 link or an M3U playlist? Paste it and add it directly to your library. M3U is fully supported β you just don't need one to get started. IMPORT WHILE YOU BROWSE AnyStream TV has a browser built in. Land on a page that's streaming, tap Import as Channel, and its channels are added to your library. YOUR LIBRARY, EVERYWHERE Everything you import syncs automatically over iCloud. Your library stays up to date across iPhone and iPad β and with Pro, on Apple TV and Apple silicon Mac too β with your channels, playlists and favourites ready wherever you use AnyStream TV. Search your library, filter by country or category, and organise channels into playlists. YOUR IPHONE BECOMES THE REMOTE Cast a channel to your TV with AirPlay and AnyStream TV turns your iPhone into a remote. Zap between channels, use CH+ and CHβ, or enter a channel number to jump straight to it β without interrupting what's playing on the big screen. ANYSTREAM TV PRO β’ Unlimited channel imports β’ No ads, anywhere β’ AnyStream TV on Apple TV β’ AnyStream TV on Apple silicon Mac Apple TV and Apple silicon Mac access are exclusive to Pro.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PhoneMouse at none against AnyStream TV's 3. PhoneMouse also leads on ads (none vs shown). AnyStream TV's advantage is iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
