You bring the IPTV. Streamly brings the player. HYBRID PLAYBACK ENGINE Streamly pairs Apple's native AVPlayer with a built-in VLC engine.

ABOUT IPTV Streamly is a player — comparable to VLC or a web browser. It does not host, distribute, sell, or recommend any video content. Every stream you load is one you supply, from a source you have a legal right to access. If you don't have a provider, the Quick Add rail offers a few free public-broadcast playlists (NASA TV, France 24, DW News, Al Jazeera English, and more) from the open iptv-org catalog.
