Why sync matters for IPTV
A playlist with thousands of channels and a library of movies and series only feels like yours once the app knows you. Without sync, every device starts from zero: you search for the episode you were watching, you set your subtitle language again, and you type the same playlist address into a TV remote one character at a time.
With an account, the app on every device knows the same things. Pause a film on your phone in bed, and the TV in the living room offers to continue from that exact second. Mark a channel as a favorite on the iPad, and it is on the Apple TV a moment later. Change the subtitle language once and it changes everywhere.
How fast it is
A change is sent three seconds after you make it, so a burst of changes goes as one. Devices that are open keep a line to our server and hear about a change the moment it arrives; there is no fixed clock that makes you wait. A device that was off asks for everything it missed when you open the app.
Phones get special care. iOS and Android freeze an app about a second after you put it away, and a change can still be waiting at that moment. The app sends it immediately when it goes to the background, so you can change something on your phone, put it down and pick up your tablet.
Your playlists, encrypted
Your playlists live in a vault. The address, username and password are encrypted on your own device, with a key that only your devices and your recovery code hold. Our server stores ciphertext and cannot read it, and neither could anyone who broke into it. A new device gets the key from one of your devices, end-to-end encrypted, when you scan its QR code or tap Allow.
Progress, favorites and settings are stored encrypted on our server. There is no password to leak: you sign in with Apple, Google or a recovery code, and we do not need your email address.
Manage it all in one place
At account.iptvplayerone.com you see every device with the moment it last synced, and the last 250 changes by day. You can remove favorites, change your settings for every device at once, and see your playlists or, with your recovery code, add one from your computer. Removing a device frees a place for a new one.
What it costs
The account is $19.99 a year or $49.99 once, for lifetime, for up to 8 devices. Without an account the app costs $5.99 a year per device. Already bought the app? What you paid comes off the account price, wherever you bought it. The pricing page shows the three options side by side.
An account is never required. Every app keeps working without one, exactly as before.
What travels with you
- Continue watching: movies and episodes, to the second, plus the last channel and radio station you had on

Frequently asked questions
What exactly syncs between my devices?
Where you stopped in movies and episodes, the last live channel and radio station, your favorites (movies, series, live TV and radio), your settings and your playlists. Settings that belong to one screen, such as picture format, subtitle size, audio delay and the parental lock, stay on that device.
How fast does a change reach my other devices?
Within seconds. Devices that are open keep a line to our server and hear about a change as soon as it arrives; a device that was off catches up the moment you open the app. A change you make right before you put your phone down is sent immediately, so it is there when you pick up the tablet.
How many devices can I use?
Up to 8 per account, in any mix of phones, tablets, computers and TVs. You see them all at account.iptvplayerone.com, where you can also remove one to make room.
Can you read my playlists?
No. The address, username and password of a playlist are encrypted on your device with a key that only your devices and your recovery code hold. Our server stores ciphertext. Your progress, favorites and settings are stored encrypted on our server.
Do I need an account to use the app?
No. Every app works without one, with its own license and its own settings. The account is for people who watch on more than one device and want everything to follow them.
I already paid for the app. Do I pay twice?
No. What you paid comes off the account price: a lifetime license in full, a year for the part that is left, whether you bought from us, in the App Store or in Google Play. The account never costs less than $4.95 a year or $9.95 for lifetime.
What if I lose my phone?
Sign in on the new one with Apple, Google or your recovery code and everything comes back. Keep the recovery code safe: without it and without a signed-in device, we cannot open your vault either.
