Timonation IPTV is a media player. You supply your own playlists; we host no content. Bring your own M3U URL or Xtream Codes login and Timonation gives you a fast, native player for it — on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. Built for people who already pay a legal IPTV provider and want a player that feels at home on Apple's platforms. WHY TIMONATION - Fast channel switching. We invest disproportionately in player reliability so zapping between channels feels instant. - Now on Apple TV. A native big-screen app with its own programme guide, catch-up, and Siri Remote channel switching — and it is the same purchase. Buy Pro once and it is unlocked on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. - Cast to your TV. From iPhone or iPad, send a live channel to a Chromecast on your Wi-Fi and keep browsing on your phone, with audio to AirPlay speakers. (Pro) - Native design on every screen. SwiftUI throughout, with the platform conventions you expect — and a focus-driven 10-foot layout on Apple TV rather than a stretched phone one. - Bring your own playlist. An M3U URL or file, an Xtream Codes login, or a Stalker Portal (Ministra) login. Credentials are stored in the device Keychain. Between iPhone and iPad they sync only through iCloud Keychain, end-to-end encrypted; Apple TV receives them inside your own iCloud sync record, because Apple TV never receives iCloud Keychain items. They are never sent to us. - TV guide. Point Timonation at your provider's XMLTV feed and browse what's on; jump into catch-up where your provider supports it. - Movies & series. Where your provider offers an on-demand catalog, browse it and resume right where you left off — on any of your devices. - Fast, native search. Find channels, programmes, and on-demand titles as you type — with system dictation on iPhone and iPad. - Parental controls. A PIN, locked groups, and kids and guest profiles keep the household setup under your control. - iCloud sync. Playlists, favourites, and movie & series progress follow you between iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. - Shortcuts, Spotlight, and widgets. Open a favourite channel from Spotlight, a Shortcut, or a Home Screen widget on iPhone and iPad — included free. Available in English, Portuguese (Portugal and Brazil), Spanish, French, German, and Italian. WHAT TIMONATION IS NOT Timonation does not host, distribute, or curate any media. No sample playlists ship with the app. You are responsible for the legality of the content you choose to play. Please only use playlists you have the right to access. PRIVACY AND ADS No account required. Your credentials stay in your Keychain and are never sent to us; we have no servers in the playback path. The free version shows at most one non-personalized (contextual) ad per session — and never on a kids profile. Timonation Pro removes ads entirely. PRO Timonation is free to use with one playlist, the full player, favourites, recents, search, and Shortcuts. A one-time Pro purchase adds unlimited playlists, casting to your TV, the TV guide, iCloud sync, household profiles, Multi-View (up to four live channels at once on iPhone and iPad, two on Apple TV), favourites reordering — and removes ads. One purchase covers all three platforms. No subscription. Family Sharing supported. SUPPORT Visit https://timonation.app/support.
