webIPTV is a player for iPhone, iPad & Apple TV — Live TV, TV-Shows, Movies & Sports

Hi everyone,

I got tired of IPTV players that bury your playlist under ads and upsells, so I tried building my own. It's the first app I've ever made, and I'm still very much learning as I go.

It's a player for the sources you already have — you add your own Xtream or M3U playlist, and it plays your live TV, Movies and TV Shows.

Key Features

  • Quick onboarding filters the catalogue down to your languages and interests
  • iPhone, iPad and Apple TV, with the Apple TV set up from your phone
  • Channels and watch progress sync through your own iCloud — no account with me, nothing on my servers
  • Movies and TV Shows get posters, descriptions and ratings on their own
  • A sports section that tells you which of your channels is showing a match
  • Live TV with three views: on now, a guide grid (Hold press to preview) and a full schedule
  • Personalized Feed view
  • Picture in Picture, AirPlay, subtitle and audio track selection
  • Data ist stored local on your devices

It's not a content service, to be clear: no channels, no subscriptions, nothing included. Without your own source it's an empty player.

I'd like to get it right before making it public, and honestly I don't know yet where the weak spots are. If you have a few minutes to try it, I'd be grateful for anything you notice — bugs, things that feel awkward, things you'd expect that aren't there. Apple TV especially, that's had the least testing. Critical feedback is welcome, that's the whole point.
