Tivifyer turns your IPTV lists into a real television experience on your iPhone and iPad: a live guide, multiview, catch-up, recordings and a web organizer that syncs everything across your devices. Fast, elegant and no fuss. IMPORTANT: Tivifyer is a media player only. It does not include or provide any channel, broadcast or content. To watch anything, add your own lists (Xtream Codes or M3U). WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Multiview: several live channels at once, from any list. Pick the audio with a tap and jump to full screen whenever you want. • Recordings and catch-up: record what you're watching and rewind what already aired. • Web organizer: reorder, hide, rename, change logos and create groups from a comfortable browser. It shows up on your device instantly. • End-to-end encrypted sync: your lists travel encrypted and our servers only ever store encrypted data, never your key. We cannot see which channels you have. • Live guide (EPG): full grid, a "now" line, program descriptions and jump-to-past. • Continue where you left off: resume every movie and series with Simkl or Trakt, with cinema info (posters, synopsis and cast). • Automatic source switching: if a channel fails or won't start, Tivifyer tries the same channel from your other lists. MADE FOR YOU • Pair your list with a QR code, no typing URLs. • Multiple M3U and Xtream lists at once, with search and favorites. • PIN parental control. • iPhone and iPad, with touch support and Picture in Picture. PREMIUM A single lifetime payment, with no subscription and no ads. Unlocks multiview, recordings, catch-up, web sync and more. Restore your purchase on all your Apple devices with the same Apple ID. And with your email, use it on up to 5 more devices: save your Premium to your email and sign in with it on each one. Tivifyer is not affiliated with any content provider and does not promote the use of illegal sources. Any premium purchase unlocks app features only; it does not include, or give access to, any channel, broadcast or content.
