Your streams. Your privacy. No ads. Want to enjoy your channels, movies, and series without ad banners, without tracking, and without an app quietly logging everything in the background? Then SafeIPTV is the player for you: built natively for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV, connected directly to your own IPTV provider, and designed so your data stays with you. PRIVACY WITHOUT COMPROMISE • No data collection: no tracking, no analytics, no user profiles. We don't run any server that stores your catalog, history, or usage data. What's never collected can never fall into the wrong hands. • No account needed: no sign-up, no email address, no tracking ID. • Everything stays local: SafeIPTV keeps your favorites, history, playback progress, and settings on your device only, never with us. • Passwords locked down: encrypted in the iOS, macOS, and tvOS Keychain, tied to your device, and never stored in plain text. A pasted playlist, including its stream addresses, stays on your device only. • No middleman: SafeIPTV connects directly to your provider. No proxy, no detour through our servers, and no storing of your device's MAC address. • You're in control: clear your history anytime. When you remove an account, SafeIPTV also deletes its password, pasted playlist, catalog, favorites, and history from your device. That's why our App Privacy label reads: Data Not Collected. Developed in Germany, under EU data protection law. AD-FREE, UNDISTURBED VIEWING • Truly ad-free: no banners, no pop-ups, no commercials before your stream. SafeIPTV never inserts ads anywhere, not in the interface and not in the player. • No hidden costs: no subscription, no premium tier. After a 7-day free trial, a single in-app purchase unlocks every feature for good. • No distractions: no push notifications, no ad SDKs running in the background. Just you and your shows. TRY FIRST. BUY ONCE. FOUR DEVICES. Try SafeIPTV with your own provider for 7 days. The trial simply ends; you're never charged automatically. Like it? Unlock the full version once and use it on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV. On the big screen, you control everything from the couch with the Siri Remote, and on the Mac with a keyboard and mouse. And with Apple's Family Sharing, your family can use the full version too, without buying it again. MORE FEATURES • Quick setup: enter your server URL, username, and password, or simply paste your provider's M3U link. On iPhone, iPad, and Mac you can also create your own playlist by pasting M3U entries directly. The app checks them right away and points out lines with errors. • Live TV, movies, and series in a clean catalog. You search the current category or the whole catalog, sort by name, date, or rating, and save favorites for titles and entire categories. Everything stays on your device. • Pick up right where you left off, plus “Recently Watched” and “Recently Added” • Program guide (EPG) with live preview and a time offset for each account • Choose the audio track, subtitles, and aspect ratio right in the player • Manage multiple IPTV accounts and switch between them quickly • Playback built on VLC, with advanced settings for power users: buffering, hardware decoding, and automatic reconnection when a live stream stalls GOOD TO KNOW SafeIPTV is a player only and does not include any playlists, channels, movies, series, or other content. The purchase price covers the software only, not IPTV content or a provider subscription. You need your own lawful access from a provider that supports Xtream Codes or M3U playlists. We are not a broadcaster and do not provide any sources. Support: support@safe-iptv.de Website: https://safe-iptv.de/en/ Legal: https://safe-iptv.de/legal/?lang=en
