zabb IPTV Player - open beta for a cross-platform IPTV player (Android TV + Windows) FREE
*mods please let me know if this goes against rules*
Hey — I've been building an IPTV player called zabb and it's finally in a state I'd call good enough to share. Opening it up as a public beta. Premium features are free for everyone during the beta, no card needed.
What it is
You bring your own playlist (M3U, Xtream, or Stalker) — zabb doesn't host, resell, or distribute any content. It's just the player + sync layer on top.
What works today
- Android TV and Windows builds
- Live TV, VOD, series
- EPG (basic + advanced views)
- Recordings + timeshift
- Cloud sync across devices (favorites, watch history, playlists)
- Web dashboard for managing your account, devices, and playlists
Android TV will be next with highest priority.
Then iOS / iPadOS.
Family sharing (the bit I'm most proud of)
If you've ever shared an IPTV setup with a partner, your kids, or a friend, you know the usual pain — everyone fights over the same favorites list and watch history, or you end up sharing your login. zabb does it properly:
- Up to 5 profiles, up to 5 devices on one plan
- Each profile has its own favorites, watch history, and paired devices — totally separate
- You send a short invite code, they enter it in the app, and they get a managed profile under your plan
- Revoke any invite at any time, no password resets, no awkwardness
It's basically "Netflix profiles" but for your own playlist.
How to try it

What I'm looking for
Bug reports, weird playlists that don't parse, devices it crashes on, missing features that would block you from switching. Reply here or open an issue via Discord.
Cheers.
