Get it from the Mac App Store
The easiest route: open the Mac App Store, install IPTV Player One and it just opens. No right-click, nothing to allow first. Updates arrive through the App Store, the app is in 31 languages, and it is the same app as on Apple TV and as the iPhone and iPad app.
Unlike many IPTV apps in the Mac App Store, it also runs on Intel Macs, not only on Apple Silicon. You need macOS 13.3 or newer.
IPTV Player One is a player only. It ships with no channels, content or subscriptions, so you bring your own playlist from a legal source, as an M3U link or an Xtream Codes login.
What the Mac App Store version does
Live TV is sorted by group and by country, with search across your whole playlist. Movies and series remember where you stopped, so pressing play continues instead of restarting. The home screen is yours to arrange, with rows like Top 10 in your country, Recently added, Highly rated and In 4K, and the TV guide shows now and next. Favourites are kept apart for live TV, movies, series and radio, and radio gets artwork that keeps moving instead of a still picture.
It plays .mkv, HEVC and 4K. You choose the audio track and the subtitle track, set the subtitle size, and correct the lip sync when a stream drifts. The parental lock puts groups behind a PIN, and you can keep several playlists side by side, each with its own library. Messy lists get cleaned up: separator rows hidden, titles tidied, duplicate channels merged.
It casts live TV, movies and series to a Chromecast (also called Google Cast), Google TV or Android TV, where you choose the subtitle and audio track on the cast itself and the subtitles stay in sync.
After the trial your subscription runs through the Mac App Store: no device code, no license to link, it simply follows your Apple Account. The installation guide walks through every step.
Also on Apple TV, with the same subscription
IPTV Player One runs on Apple TV 4K and Apple TV HD too, on tvOS 16.4 or newer. It is the same App Store listing, so one subscription covers your iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV as long as they use the same Apple Account. On the television the app plays on the TV itself, so there is nothing to cast, and you enter your playlist on your phone through a short code instead of typing it with the remote.
Also on Windows, Android and your TV
- Windows 10 and 11, 64-bit, from our own installer or the Microsoft Store
- Android phones and tablets from Google Play, Android 7.0 or newer
- Android TV and Google TV, the same Play package with a layout made for the remote
- iPhone and iPad from the App Store, iOS 16.4 or newer, on that same subscription
Fire TV, Roku, Samsung Tizen and LG webOS are not supported.

Frequently asked questions
What can the Mac App Store version do?
It is the same app as on Apple TV: load your own M3U link or Xtream Codes login, and watch live TV, movies, series and radio. Live TV has search, groups and a country view, movies and series remember where you stopped, and the home screen is yours to arrange with rows like Top 10 in your country, Recently added, Highly rated and In 4K. There is a TV guide with now and next, favourites per type, a parental lock with a PIN, several playlists side by side, and playback of .mkv, HEVC and 4K with audio and subtitle choice.
What does it cost, and is there a free trial?
The first 14 days are free, starting the first time you play something, with no account and no payment details. After that it is a subscription with Apple: $5.99 per year, renewing until you cancel, and it covers your iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV on the same Apple Account. Apple charges in your own currency and shows the exact price before you confirm. The pricing page has the full breakdown.
Does the App Store subscription also cover my Apple TV?
Yes. One subscription in the App Store works on your Mac and on your Apple TV as long as they use the same Apple Account, and it covers iPhone and iPad too.
Which Macs and macOS versions are supported?
macOS 13.3 or newer, on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.
Is it the same app as on Apple TV and iPhone?
Yes. The Mac App Store version is the same app as on Apple TV and on iPhone and iPad, with a layout for a bigger screen. All three come from the same App Store listing, and one subscription covers them together.
Do I get updates?
Yes, through the Mac App Store, like updates for every other App Store app.
Does it support AirPlay?
No. Apple does not allow AirPlay video from the kind of app the Mac version is (a Designed for iPad app), so that route is closed on the Mac, not just missing. Cast from your Mac to a Chromecast (also called Google Cast), Google TV or Android TV instead; the Chromecast page covers that. AirPlay does work on the iPhone and iPad app.
IPTV Player One contains no channels, content or subscriptions. It is a media player for playlists you legally own or are licensed to use. Using it for pirated content is not permitted.
