About

VisioneViva

Read full description

The diary of what you watch. And the player for your own lists. VisioneViva keeps track of the films and shows you watch, tells you when the next episode airs, and lets you talk about them with people watching the same things. If you have your own IPTV subscription, it plays that too. YOUR DIARY Mark episodes as watched, rate them, write a note that stays private. The numbers: how many hours, how many episodes, how many films โ€” and how many times you rewatched the same show. RELEASE CALENDAR A month grid showing the days something lands, and the list of upcoming episodes of the shows you follow. Dates are in your own time zone, not the American one. Reminder on release day. COMMUNITY Comments under every episode, with photos and GIFs, and any comment can become a discussion. Public profiles: follow people who watch what you watch and browse their library. Spoilers stay covered until you tap them. You can report and block anyone, and every report is reviewed by a person. LIVE SPORT Today's matches with the channel showing them. Before kick-off, how both teams are doing; during the game, score, scorers, possession and shots. Plus a chat with everyone else watching. COMING FROM ANOTHER APP? Bring your history from TV Time, Trakt and others: watched episodes, ratings, watchlist and lists. And whenever you like, download all your data as an archive. YOUR LISTS, IF YOU HAVE THEM Connect the credentials of your own service (Xtream Codes or M3U) and VisioneViva puts them in order: posters, plots, cast, seasons and episodes where they belong, TV guide, subtitles, skip-intro and next episode. No content is included, hosted or distributed: you bring the sources. On iPhone, iPad and Mac. PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTION The subscription is ONLY for using the player with your own lists (multiple lists, advanced video engines, downloads, AirPlay and Cast). The diary, calendar, community, stats and import are free and stay free. WHERE THE ARTWORK COMES FROM Posters, plots, cast and dates come from TMDB through its public API. VisioneViva does not host, stream or distribute any video content: our servers serve no movies, shows or channels. This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB.
