Aura is a free, cross-platform IPTV media player. Bring your own provider — Xtream Codes, Stalker middleware, or a plain M3U playlist — and play your live channels, movies, and series on every device you own. WHAT IT DOES - Plays live IPTV channels via Xtream Codes, Stalker Middleware, or M3U. - Shows a 7-day Electronic Program Guide where your provider supplies one. - Browses Video-on-Demand libraries from your provider. - Continues watching where you left off, across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. - Saves favorite channels for one-tap access. ABOUT THE APP - No content included. Aura is a player — you bring your own IPTV subscription. Think of it like a browser for IPTV streams. - No ads. No paid tiers. Free and free of upsells. - No tracking of what you watch. Anonymous telemetry covers playback reliability only (how long until the first frame, how often a stream rebuffered) — never which channel or which program. - Provider credentials are stored locally in Keychain. They never leave the device. WHO IT'S FOR - Subscribers of IPTV resellers and middleware providers who want a consistent, fast, modern player across their phone, tablet, and Mac. - Resellers who want a clean, white-label-ready player to ship to their customers without writing their own. DISCLAIMER - Aura does not provide, host, broadcast, or include any TV channels, movies, series, or other media content. It is a media player only — comparable to a web browser or VLC. - You must add your own IPTV subscription, portal, or playlist. You are solely responsible for the content you access and stream through the app. - Aura has no affiliation with any IPTV provider, broadcaster, or content owner whatsoever. - We do not endorse or encourage the streaming of copyright-protected material without permission of the rights holder. PRIVACY - See https://auravision.live/privacy for the full policy. - See https://auravision.live/terms for terms of service.
