Timonation IPTV vs Zus Player

Timonation IPTV is a media player. You supply your own playlists; we host no content. Add the M3U URL or file, Xtream Codes login, Stalker Portal (Ministra) login or provider code you already use, and Timonation gives you a fast, native player for it on iPhone, iPad, Mac 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 put most of our effort into player reliability, so zapping feels instant. - One purchase, every device. Buy Pro once and it is unlocked on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV. - Control playback from the Lock Screen, Control Center, StandBy, AirPods and the Live Activity, and add controls for Control Center, the Lock Screen and the Action button. - Your TV, your way. Cast a channel to a Chromecast, or on iOS 27 use Play on TV with a display on USB-C or HDMI while your iPhone or iPad keeps the controls. (Pro) - Your logins stay yours. They are kept in your Keychain and, when sync is on, travel in your own iCloud sync record, which is not end-to-end encrypted. They are never sent to us. - TV guide from your provider's XMLTV feed, with catch-up where supported, reminders and an overnight refresh. (Pro) - Movies and series. Browse your provider's catalogue and resume where you left off on any device. - Search where you are. Each section searches its own content, one search covers everything, and on supported devices Ask finds channels and programmes from a request in your own words. - Parental controls. A PIN, locked groups, Kids and Guest profiles, a daily Kids limit, and Face ID or Touch ID. On iOS 27 a profile's age can be suggested from Family Sharing. - iCloud sync of playlists, favourites, profiles and progress across your devices. (Pro) - Widgets, Siri and Shortcuts. Open a favourite from a widget, Spotlight or a Shortcut for free, see now and next in the What's On widget (Pro), and use Handoff between iPhone, iPad and Mac. - Open in New Window. On iPad, give a channel its own window. - Recordings. Record a live channel to watch later. The app saves a copy of the stream, nothing re-encoded, in its own folder, which you can see in Files. (Pro) 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. No server of ours is in the playback path; the only one the app contacts is the provider code lookup. The free version shows at most one non-personalized ad per session, never on a kids profile. PRO Free with one playlist, the full player, favourites, recents, search and Shortcuts. A one-time Pro purchase adds unlimited playlists, the guide with catch-up, iCloud sync, profiles, Multi-View (up to four channels on iPhone, iPad and Mac, two on Apple TV), recordings, casting and Play on TV, the What's On widget, favourites in your own order and private recents, and removes ads. One purchase covers all four platforms. No subscription. Family Sharing supported. SUPPORT https://timonation.app/support
