An IPTV player built for iPad

An iPad is the closest thing to a television you carry around, and most IPTV apps treat it as a stretched phone. Tivsy lays out for the screen it is on: more posters per row, a guide you can read across hours rather than one channel at a time, and a player that behaves like the rest of iPadOS.

Set up once, on either device

Add your M3U playlist or Xtream Codes account the same way as on iPhone. Sources, favourites and resume positions belong to the device they are on — nothing passes through a server in between, because there is no account.

Use the screen you have

Channel and film grids reflow to the width available, so a landscape iPad shows a shelf of posters rather than a phone column stretched wide. The programme guide becomes a real grid: channels down, hours across.

Keep watching while you do something else

Picture in picture keeps the match running in the corner while you answer mail. Split View and Stage Manager are supported, and playback continues when the app is beside another one rather than in front of it.

Add a keyboard or trackpad

With a Magic Keyboard attached, space plays and pauses, arrows scrub, and the pointer changes shape over controls the way iPadOS expects.

Common questions

Is it a separate app from the iPhone version?

No — one universal app, one download. Buying the ad-free upgrade once covers both, and Apple TV when it ships.

Does picture in picture work with live channels?

Yes, with live and on-demand alike. The stream continues in the floating window.

Does it play in Split View?

Yes, alongside another app, in Slide Over, and under Stage Manager.

Which iPads are supported?

Any iPad running iPadOS 18 or later.

Same on iPhone: the interface follows the screen rather than assuming one size.
