TV Viewer - IPTV Streaming

Free open-source IPTV player with community channels and opt-in analytics.
New in version 2.25.4
Improved optional crash diagnostics with a sanitized stack frame.
Fixed missing channel-failure reports and incomplete performance statistics.
TV Viewer is a free, open-source IPTV streaming app built around community-maintained playlists and privacy-first design.

Features:
• Live TV and radio channels from community-maintained sources
• Community Statistics page with anonymous aggregated usage insights
• Timezone-based country detection (no GPS or IP lookup needed)
• Background audio playback for radio streams
• Multi-source failover when one stream stops working
• Search, favorites, source selector, and watch history
• Picture-in-Picture (PiP) support where available
• No account required and no ads
• Optional usage and playback analytics (opt-in only)
• Optional community sharing is off by default; when enabled, health reports
use URL hashes and new playlist channels may be shared with their stream URLs
• Self-hosted web/Docker edition also available
• Regular updates with new channels and fixes from the community

Privacy:
• No account or contact details collected
• No account or login required
• Analytics are off by default; optional playback events include channel names
and URL hashes that can be matched to known streams
• Channel health reports and automatic playlist contributions are off by default
and can be enabled in Settings; URL hashes may be matched to known stream URLs
• Country detection uses device timezone only
• All source code is open and auditable

This app does not host or provide any streams. It aggregates publicly available M3U playlists maintained by the open-source community (iptv-org and others). Channel availability depends on the source providers.

Network services:
• Channel playlists are fetched from community and third-party hosts
• FMStream.org is queried for public radio-station listings
• Supabase provides the shared channel database, aggregated community statistics, optional analytics, and URL-hashed channel-health exchange
• Analytics and channel health/playlist contributions require separate opt-ins

Permissions:
• Internet: Required to stream content
• Wake Lock: Keeps playback active when needed
• Foreground Service: Background audio playback notification

Versions

Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.
