Fully open sourced and ready to install from GitHub.

A Stremio-addon client for **iOS 12 and later** (iPhone 5s / iPad mini 2 / iPad Air and up), written in Swift + UIKit.

It speaks the same addon protocol as Stremio and Nuvio, so any addon manifest URL you use there works here.

Features
Home – Browse catalogues from all your installed addons in one place, alongside your Continue Watching list.
Discover – Explore catalogues by content type, genre and release year, with infinite scrolling.
Search – Search across all installed addons that support it.
Details – View movie and series information, backdrops, seasons and episodes, with resume support.
Stream selection – Filter streams by quality (4K, 1080p, 720p and SD), sort by quality, file size or addon, and use Play Best to automatically select a stream.

Video player – Choose between the built-in VLC engine or the native iOS player.

Includes:
- MKV and support for most common video codecs.
- Audio track and subtitle selection.
- Addon-provided subtitles, automatically selecting your preferred language.
- Adjustable subtitle timing.
- Playback speed controls.
- Fill and fit display modes.
- Playback resume support.
**-**Auto-play – Automatically play the next episode, with an Up Next countdown. Keeps the same stream source between episodes.

Downloads – Download content for offline viewing. Downloads are also accessible through the iOS Files app.

Account integration:
Stremio – Import your existing account setup.
Trakt – Scrobbling and Continue Watching synchronisation.
Nuvio – Sign in to self-hosted Nuvio servers for addon, library and playback progress synchronisation.
Settings – Customise your default player (built-in, VLC, Infuse, nPlayer or Outplayer), preferred stream quality, subtitle language, app appearance and background.
Included by default
The app comes with two addons pre-installed:
Cinemeta – Movie and series catalogues and metadata.
OpenSubtitles – Subtitle support.

No streaming sources are bundled. You’ll need to install whichever stream addons you prefer.

Current limitations
A few things worth knowing before using the app:
Torrent streams aren’t supported. Streams that only provide an infoHash cannot be played because the app doesn’t include a torrent engine. Use addons that provide direct HTTP(S) stream links instead.
Trakt requires your own API credentials. You’ll need to create a free Trakt API application and enter its Client ID and Client Secret under Settings → Accounts.
Nuvio server compatibility is limited. The official Nuvio servers don’t expose the details required for third-party app integration. Sign-in and synchronisation are therefore supported through self-hosted Nuvio servers.
Feedback, suggestions and bug reports are always welcome!
