About

Presto! IPTV Player

Features
Read full description

Presto! is built for speed. Bring your own Xtream Codes account or M3U playlist and get to what you want to watch in seconds — on iPhone, iPad and Apple TV, with one subscription across all of them. Big playlists are where an IPTV app is really tested: tens of thousands of entries to fetch, parse, sort and search. Presto! is engineered around exactly that. BUILT FOR SPEED • Opens straight into your catalogue. Your channels, movies and shows are stored on device and ready before any network request finishes — no waiting on a refresh to start watching. • Parallel refresh. On Xtream accounts Presto! fetches your categories, channels, movies and series at the same time, so a full refresh takes about as long as the slowest single request instead of the sum of all of them. • Instant browsing and search. The catalogue is indexed on device, so switching category, sorting and searching stay immediate as your playlist grows. • Nothing heavy on the main thread. Parsing, indexing, sorting and search all run in the background, so scrolling stays smooth — even while a refresh is running. • The programme guide is parsed once and kept ready, so opening the EPG for any channel is immediate rather than re-reading the whole guide. • Artwork is cached in memory and on disk, so rails and grids fill instantly when you come back to them. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No ads, no analytics, no third-party trackers • Your accounts, catalogue and downloads stay on your device • Passwords are kept in the secure iOS Keychain • Presto! talks only to your provider, and automatically uses an encrypted (HTTPS) connection whenever your provider supports one • An optional, off-by-default film-info lookup keeps browsing private Presto! ships with no channels or content of its own. You connect the service you already pay for (or any source you're entitled to use), and Presto! turns it into a fast, organised library. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Live TV with a full programme guide (EPG) — a scrollable grid across all your channels, with "on now" highlighting • Catch-up: jump back to a programme that has already aired, on providers that keep an archive • Movies and shows, organised by category, with seasons and episodes • Fast search across your entire catalogue • Favourites, bookmarks, Recent Channels and Continue Watching that remembers where you stopped • Offline downloads on iPhone & iPad to watch without a connection • Picture-quality badges (SD, HD, FHD, 4K), subtitle selection and 10-second skip controls • Sleep timer, aspect-ratio control and quick channel zapping • Background audio with lock screen and Control Center playback • Works with Xtream Codes and M3U / M3U8 playlists, plus XMLTV guides A PLAYER, NOT A PROVIDER Presto! does not provide, sell or include any TV channels, films or streams. Use only content you are legally entitled to access — your own provider subscription, free over-the-air streams, or other sources you have the rights to. PRESTO! PREMIUM Fast. Smooth. Presto! A subscription unlocks the full player across iPhone, iPad and Apple TV, including offline downloads on iPhone and iPad, and starts with a 7-day free trial. Presto! Premium is an auto-renewable subscription. • Monthly and Annual options are available; prices are shown in the app and may vary by region. • New subscribers get a 7-day free trial. • Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. • Your subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. • Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. • Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
