Tekstream

Tekstream connects your own media server to everything else you watch. Point it at Plex or Jellyfin and your library arrives with proper artwork, cast, ratings and descriptions. Browse it, search it, download for the flight, and pick up where you left off. BUILT AROUND WHAT YOU ACTUALLY WATCH • Your server, properly presented — Plex and Jellyfin libraries with rich metadata, not a file list • Trending on Trakt — see what people are watching right now, alongside your own collection • Live TV — your channels in the same place as everything else • Watchlist, Favourites and Downloads — kept in sync, available offline • Your Activity and Diary — a record of what you watched and when MEET CLEO Cleo is an entertainment companion built into the app. Ask her what to watch and she answers from what is actually available to you. Her feed covers new trailers, streaming releases, box office and casting news — so you find out a series was renewed without leaving the app you watch it in. DESIGNED FOR IPAD AND IPHONE A proper sidebar on iPad, a full-screen experience on iPhone, and a dark interface that stays out of the way of the artwork. Tekstream does not host or provide any content. You connect your own Plex or Jellyfin server, or browse public catalogue data from Trakt and TMDB. Tekstream Premium is an auto-renewing subscription. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and can be managed or cancelled at any time in your Apple Account settings.
