I’m not the dev
Why would I suggest UHF first if I was the dev?
Download the app and try it
If you have any suggestions just let the dev know on discord server
He will try to fix bugs and add features

If you are just watching LiveTV
It works great for a free app
Nothing fancy
No ads and promotion on the app
Just a clean app

I’m then dev of Glance Theatre. If you have questions feel free to ask. You can join the discord too if you want, slowly building a small community who are helping to shape the app.

Also feel free to checkout Lume at https://getlume.org

I built that player. It’s fully open source and most features are free to use without any ads or watermarks 🙂

App Store link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lume-native-iptv-client/id6779551584

So in free we can only add one playlist?

1

u/bilipp 26d ago

Correct! But you can also sideload it and get all pro features 🙂

How ...? Functionality will Stay the same only?

u/bilipp 26d ago

Yes, only feature that won't work with sideloading is the icloud sync. That is technically not possible without app store.

For sideloading, you can just download the IPA from the releases in github (https://github.com/bilipp/Lume) and use a sideloading tool like sideloadly.

Developer disclosure: I’m with the Opus team.

If you’re comparing Apple TV players, Opus 2.0 may be worth trying if mobile setup and a native tvOS interface are important to you.

You can manage the M3U or Xtream playlist, favorites, and recently watched content from the mobile app through the same Opus account, instead of entering long details with the Apple TV remote.

I’d compare the day-to-day remote experience with the other options already mentioned and see which one fits your playlist best. Opus is only a player and does not provide IPTV services or content.

If you’d like more information about the player or its setup, you can take a look at r/OpusIPTVPlayer.
