    <description>Sports Hub

Follow live scores and upcoming fixtures across leagues, then jump straight to the channel showing the match from your own content. Filter by league, open a fixture for lineups, statistics and match events, and auto-follow the teams you care about. On iPhone, keep an eye on a match with Live Activities and Home Screen widgets.

Skip Intro

Skip intros and recaps with one press, learned from what you skip and from chapter markers where available. Double tap to seek on iPhone. The version you pick for a film is remembered. Choose which stream details appear in the player info panel.

AnyTV account &amp; sync

Sign in with an email code, or link a TV with a pairing code or by scanning its QR code from your phone. Restore your library on a new device, and see exactly what a subscription covers.

Watch progress, favourites, custom lists, hidden channels, channel renames, category order, subtitle and audio choices and your chosen versions now follow you across every device. Delete your account from within the app at any time.

Profiles

Unlock a locked profile with Face ID or Touch ID on iPhone and iPad, or with your iPhone on Apple TV. Repeated wrong PINs slow down before the next try.

Also in this release

A new startup sound and launch animation. Refined dark appearance across both apps. Grouped, filled icon Customise lists on iPhone.

Fixed a crash when the app was sent to the background during library work, and many smaller fixes to sync, onboarding and account screens.</description>

    <description>Picture-in-Picture on Apple TV

Picture-in-Picture arrived on tvOS, rebuilt on the system's now-playing session so it behaves like every other Apple TV app rather than a private imitation of one.

A scrubber worth using

High-resolution scrub thumbnails, with a floating preview that follows the playhead as you move it. Finding the moment you half-remember stopped being guesswork.

Artwork that stops flashing

Hero images hold their blurred placeholder for a moment rather than snapping from low to high resolution in front of you, and full-resolution artwork on cellular became a setting rather than an assumption. Detail screens moved to a steadier grid that does not stutter as you scroll.

Matching that corrects itself

Title matching learned to version itself, so when the rules improve, the titles matched under the old ones are re-examined instead of staying wrong forever. A one-off pass cleared out mis-matches caused by contradictory years.</description>

    <title>AnyTV 6.0, The biggest release yet, and the one that made the library feel instant</title>

    <description>A library that loads like it is already there

The largest release in AnyTV's history, and most of it went somewhere you cannot point at: episode merging, metadata overlays and playlist viability checks moved off the main thread, the guide gained segmented caching with priority merging, and enrichment learned to settle around what you are doing instead of competing with it.

Genres that mean something

A curated genre crosswalk replaced the provider's own labels, so Drama means Drama whichever source it came from, with the poster chosen from your own library rather than a stock image.

Restoring a device

A native restoration flow for a fresh install: sign in, and the library comes back rather than being rebuilt from scratch.

Subtitles and the guide

Better subtitle probing and synchronisation for on-demand content, and channels you watch recently refresh their guide data by themselves.

Also in this release

Version selection when a provider offers the same title more than once. Focus states on the player header. Input fields that work properly with the iPhone continuity keyboard and iCloud Keychain.</description>

    <title>AnyTV 5.9, Very large playlists stopped being a problem</title>

    <description>Imports that fit in memory

Series import became a constant-memory stream rather than something that grew with the size of your playlist. Temporary storage is throttled, image caches are capped, and progress is reported live while it runs instead of leaving you with a spinner.

One library from several sources

Playlists and network shares stopped being two separate worlds: series from both merge into one list, so a show you have in two places is one show.

Playback that does not fight the import

Background enrichment pauses on constrained devices while you are watching. The work still happens; it stops happening at the expense of the thing you actually asked for.

Episodes that resolve

An episode-key bridge reconciled legacy and canonical identifiers, which fixed a class of bugs where the right episode existed but the wrong one played.</description>

    <title>AnyTV 5.0, Profiles took charge, and the interface loosened up</title>

    <description>Profiles that own their content

Playlist management became a per-profile matter: which sources a profile may manage, which it sees, and which one it opens on. A profile now remembers the playlist it was last using.

Channel logos, your way

A redesigned logo browser with search and paste-a-URL, circular logos as an option, and a way to filter out the ones that never load.

A calmer interface

Zoom transitions into content detail, a unified media tab for people who would rather not switch between Movies and TV Shows, tab-bar minimisation on newer iOS, and a landscape layout that stops fighting the featured carousel.</description>

    <title>AnyTV 4.9, Subscriptions, codes, and a much faster guide</title>

    <description>Subscriptions in one place

StoreKit purchases and redemption codes became one status rather than two competing ones, with offer-code redemption in the app.

A guide that gets out of the way

The guide loads fewer future days by default, resolves channel identity off the main thread, and lays out faster. Timeline slots show their day when they are not today.

Clearer about what deleting means

Deleting a profile now says plainly that it removes watch history, favourites and downloads, rather than letting you find out afterwards.</description>

    <title>AnyTV 4.6, Catch-up, a mini guide in the player, and a home screen you arrange</title>

    <description>Catch-up and a mini guide

The programme archive arrived, along with a mini guide inside the player, a live guide button in the controls, and continue-watching in reach while something is playing.

A home screen you arrange

Sections can be reordered and hidden, so the first thing you see is the thing you actually watch.

Detail pages that look like a streaming service

Backdrops take priority, the header gradient was rebuilt in the style of the Apple TV app, and the action buttons run the full width.

Under it

Network-share domains are encrypted. Sync notifies only the tables that changed, retries properly, and stops uploading during an import instead of racing it.</description>

    <title>AnyTV 4.0, Network shares, and a catalogue that remembers</title>

    <description>Your own files

Network shares became a first-class source, with their own models, persistence and authentication handling, so a NAS sits in the library beside everything else.

A catalogue that remembers

Deleted profiles, playlists and shares stopped coming back from the dead during a sync, and cached detail pages open instantly instead of rebuilding themselves each time.

Episode data worth reading

Air dates on episode cards and detail pages, filled in from metadata where a provider left them out.

Favourites, redesigned

Categorised sections, a heart rather than a bookmark, and live channels whose favourite state is correct.</description>
