Read full descriptionHide full description
Melyro is a media player designed to let you watch your own authorized sources, simply and quickly. Melyro doesn't provide any content. There is no built-in channel list, movie archive, provider directory or catalog of any kind in the app, and Melyro does not sell channels or content subscriptions. What you watch is decided only by the sources you add yourself and have the right to use. WHAT IT DOES • Adds your own M3U playlist from a file or a URL • Signs in with the server address, username and password your provider gave you (Xtream-compatible login) • Opens the movies and series on your own Jellyfin or Emby server • Brings your live streams, movies and series together in one layout, and picks up where you left off • Offers the next episode as one ends; it can move on by itself • Hides, reorders and renames the channels in your own list • Shows what's on now and next, and a schedule for each channel • Changes channel without leaving the player: the next channels sit right under the picture • Searches your channels, movies and series • Refreshes your source whenever you ask • Puts the categories you choose behind a PIN • Shows a subtitle file you bring for a movie • Sends to your TV with AirPlay, an external display or Chromecast • CarPlay: live channels, movies and series on your car's display. Video plays only in cars that support video in CarPlay, and only while parked (iOS 26.4 or later) • Picture in Picture and background audio • English, German and Turkish DESIGN A dark, calm, content-focused interface. Upright, the picture sits at the top with the controls and channels right under it; on its side, the picture fills the screen. Dynamic Type and Increase Contrast are supported. PRIVACY Melyro has no servers and no accounts, shows no ads and does no tracking or analytics of its own. Your sources stay on your device, with passwords in the Keychain, and are sent only to the provider you specify. If you turn on iCloud Sync (Pro), they sync through your own iCloud account. Purchases are checked by Apple and RevenueCat, with no name or e-mail attached. Google's Cast SDK is embedded for Chromecast support and collects data under its own privacy notice. MELYRO PRO Optional Melyro Pro unlocks: • Catch-up and starting the programme on air from the beginning (where your provider supports it) • Programme reminders and your own TV guide (XMLTV) address • iCloud sync: favourites, where you left off, channel arrangement and sources across your devices; pick up on another device where you stopped • More than one source, with one-tap switching • Player extras: sleep timer, playback speed, remembered audio and subtitles • Arranging Home, alternate app icons and accent colours It is offered as a monthly or yearly subscription (the yearly plan starts with a 7-day free trial) or a one-time lifetime purchase. Pro provides or unlocks no content. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. A subscription renews automatically for the same period and price unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage and cancel subscriptions in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://cenkgundev.github.io/melyro-site/privacy-en.html REQUIREMENTS To use Melyro you need your own playlist, provider account or media server. The app provides no content on its own.
