About

IPTVS

Features
Read full description

IPTVS is a general-purpose media player and organizer for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV. IPTVS does not provide, sell, curate or grant access to any channel, playable catalog, media service, playlist, subscription or provider account. The app contains no preset playback endpoints. It plays only titles and streams from sources that a user manually enters and is authorized to use. BRING YOUR OWN AUTHORIZED SOURCE Connect one or more M3U/M3U8 playlists or Xtream-compatible servers that you have the legal right to access. The source chosen by the user supplies all channels, playable movie and series titles, guide data and streams. IPTVS does not select, broker or resell that material. ORGANIZE SOURCE METADATA Create separate lists for channels, movies and series. Pin useful categories, hide others and prioritize the regions that matter to you. Search the metadata supplied by your connected sources and see a clear source label on each item. Movie and series discovery can use public metadata and rankings from TMDB to show views such as Trending, Popular, Top rated, regional Now playing and On the air. These views contain only titles safely matched to a playable movie or series already present in your own sources. TMDB does not provide streams or unlock any title. The local catalog index and TMDB cache contain metadata only. They do not store media, credentials or private playback URLs. GUIDE AND PLAYBACK Browse now and next when your source supplies EPG information or you add an XMLTV URL. Replay is available only when the user's authorized Xtream source explicitly supports TV archive. IPTVS does not download or export media for offline use and does not provide file sharing. For compatibility with some source formats, the app may temporarily remux an active stream into short HLS fragments served only to the local player over the device loopback interface. These temporary playback fragments are not exposed to the user and are removed when playback ends. SYNC YOUR SETUP When iCloud Sync is active on devices using the same Apple Account, IPTVS can keep source setup, favorites, custom lists, movie and episode progress, preferred regions, subtitle language and selected settings in step. Credentials are stored with Apple Keychain where supported and with encrypted fields in the user's private iCloud database for cross-device access. Private playback URLs and credentials are not stored in watch history. FREE TO DOWNLOAD After a user adds an authorized source, IPTVS currently applies no daily playback limits. Use as much as you want. Feel free to support the development with optional Premium. No media, stream or provider access is included with either tier. The app contains no third-party advertising SDK. Only connect sources and play material that you have permission to use. Terms of Use (Apple Standard EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
