IPTV player for phone, tablet and Android TV
A lightweight player for the M3U and Xtream Codes playlists you already own. StratoStream ships with no channels and no subscription — you add your own playlist and it plays it.

StratoStream is a player, and only a player. It ships with no channels and no subscription: you bring a playlist from a service you already pay for, and it plays it.
M3U, M3U8 and Xtream Codes. Add one by URL, by Xtream login, or from a file on the device — the same account and the same playlist on your phone, your tablet and your TV box.
XMLTV guides load automatically when your playlist declares one, and can be added by hand when it does not. Programme reminders arrive as a notification shortly before something starts.
Watch what has already aired on channels whose provider offers an archive. Catch-up has no standard, so StratoStream implements all five conventions in circulation — Shift, Flussonic, Xtream timeshift, append and template URLs — and picks the right one per channel.
Favourites, groups and search, so a channel takes a moment rather than a scroll. Picture-in-picture keeps it playing in a corner while you use another app.
Android TV and set-top boxes get a leanback layout designed for a d-pad — and no ads at all.
Providers hand out playlists with tens of thousands of channels and guides that run to hundreds of megabytes. The guide is streamed straight to storage instead of being held in memory, the channel list is paged, and a refresh never leaves you with half a playlist if the connection drops.
Hardware decoding with a software fallback, adjustable buffering for unreliable providers, tunneled playback for 4K on TV boxes, and per-channel headers for providers that require them. HLS, DASH, RTSP and RTMP.
There is no account to create and no server of ours in the middle. Your playlists, credentials and viewing history stay on your device, and playlist passwords are stored encrypted. The privacy policy sets out exactly what the ads see.
The free version is fully functional and supports up to three playlists, with ads. One optional payment removes every ad and lifts the playlist limit, for good. No subscription.
