YOUR LIBRARY, FINALLY READABLE • Live TV, movies, series with seasons and episodes, catch-up and sports • Posters, synopsis, cast, ratings, year and trailers (TMDB), in the app language • Continue Watching row, Watched badge, episode queue and automatic Next Episode • My List and favorite channels • Top 10 and dynamic home screen • Global search across your whole library • Program guide: now and next, per channel • Sports: live, upcoming and finished matches A PLAYER THAT DOESN'T STUTTER Your videos start fast and play smoothly, making the most of your Apple device. MKV, AVI, 4K: common formats just play, with no conversion and nothing to configure. On Apple TV, playback is native, with HDR and Dolby support. ENCRYPTED iCLOUD SYNC Profiles (credentials included), favorites and playback progress move between your Apple devices through CloudKit, inside your private database, end-to-end encrypted. An account typed on iPhone shows up on Apple TV: no more typing with the remote. On/Off switch and "Erase my iCloud data" button in Settings. No server, no app account, no developer access. OFFLINE AND ON THE GO Download movies and episodes on iPhone, iPad and Mac (pause, resume, storage management). Send to Chromecast, or use AirPlay and Picture-in-Picture with the full experience.

Your parental code is never stored as it was typed. And if a device can't guarantee full encryption, your profile simply isn't sent there: we'd rather not sync than take a risk.
