Coming soon to iPhone, iPad and Apple TV

Your IPTV playlist,
finally worth watching.

Velora is a player, not an IPTV service. We sell no playlists and there is no channel line-up inside the app. Connect the Xtream or M3U playlist you already pay for, and Velora renders it the way it should have looked all along — a real library, a live guide, and the episode you left half-finished waiting on every screen you own.

Velora does not provide an IPTV service.

We are not an IPTV provider, reseller or aggregator. Velora sells no IPTV subscriptions, no playlists and no channel line-up of its own. The app arrives empty and does nothing at all until you enter a playlist yourself. The Apple TV app bundles a short sample — Apple's public test streams and a Creative Commons short film — purely so you can see how it works first. That is demonstration media, not television.

We do not supply, bundle, recommend, rank or link to any provider, and we cannot help you find one. Everything you watch comes from a service you chose and you pay for, over a connection between your device and their server that we are no part of.

Bring your own playlist

Three fields, then it's just television.

You supply the subscription — we supply none of it. Velora just does the tedious part: reading the playlist, matching the guide, and turning ten thousand unsorted entries into something you can actually browse.

01

Connect your playlist

Paste an Xtream Codes server, username and password — or point Velora at an M3U URL with an optional XMLTV guide. Keep as many playlists as you like and switch between them at any time.

02

Velora builds the library

Channels, films and series are pulled once, sorted into their folders and cached on the device. Posters, descriptions, ratings and episode lists come along with them. Later launches read the cache, not the network.

03

Watch on anything Apple

Start a film on the iPhone, finish it on the Apple TV. Playlists, favourites, My List and resume points travel over your own iCloud — no sign-up, no password to remember, nothing on anyone's server.

What's inside

Built for the way IPTV actually behaves.

Real playlists are messy: half the films arrive as Matroska, the guide is gzipped XML, and the channel order makes sense to nobody. Velora was written against that reality, not against a demo feed.

Two engines, so it plays what you're actually sent

Apple's player where it shines — hardware decode, AirPlay, Picture in Picture, less battery. Everything it refuses, a bundled libVLC takes instead. Velora picks per stream, and you never see the switch.

iCloud, not an account

Playlists, favourites, My List and resume points mirror through your own iCloud. There is no Velora account and no Velora server. Not signed in? The app simply runs on local state.

A guide that fills itself in

XMLTV data is downloaded, unzipped and matched to your channels automatically — including the compressed feeds most providers ship. What's on now, what's on next, and how far through it you are.

Films and series, properly

Posters, synopses, cast, ratings, trailers and full episode lists — and a Home screen of shelves assembled from what's actually in your playlist. A shelf with nothing real behind it is dropped, never padded out.

A real Apple TV app

Not a stretched phone layout — its own navigation, built for the Siri Remote, with a Billboard catalogue, a folder-panel guide, and a Top Shelf row above the icon showing what you'd resume or zap to next.

Passwords in the Keychain

Provider credentials go to the iOS Keychain — never into a settings file, never off your device except through iCloud Keychain, which is also how your Apple TV signs in without you typing on a remote.

Fast on the second launch

The catalogue is cached, so Velora opens into your library instead of a spinner. A large Xtream panel is downloaded once and refreshed in the background, not re-fetched every time you open the app.

Search that spans everything

One field across channels, films and series — on the phone and on the television. Plus favourites, a My List you curate yourself, and resume points on everything you've started.

Live TV

Four ways to find a channel.

Each one is a genuinely different way of browsing, and every device remembers its own choice — what suits a phone in one hand rarely suits a television across the room.

ListDense, scannable, with what's on now beside every channel.
CardsLogo-forward tiles — two across on a phone, three on a television.
Zap gridEverything at once. Built for people who know their channel numbers.
GuideA full XMLTV timeline with a now-line, on the phone and the TV.
Privacy by construction

There's no server to trust.

Most of privacy-policy writing is describing what a company does with your data. Velora's is short, because the app has nowhere to send any. It talks to your provider and to Apple's iCloud — and that's the whole list.

The full text is on the privacy page.

  • No Velora account. Nothing to register, nothing to delete.
  • No analytics, trackers or ad SDKs. No third-party code watching what you play.
  • Your credentials stay yours. Keychain on the device, iCloud Keychain between your devices. We never receive them.
  • Your viewing history is never uploaded to us. Resume points sync through your own iCloud, encrypted by Apple.
  • No television of our own. Velora hosts, supplies and resells no channels or films. Everything you actually watch comes from the provider you chose.
Three screens

One library, three screens.

Pro travels with your Apple Account — buy it once and it's on every Apple device you own.

iPhone

The whole library in a pocket, with background audio for live channels when the screen locks.

iPad

Room for the guide to breathe — the timeline and the poster grids at the size they were drawn for.

Apple TV

A native tvOS app with Top Shelf, remote-first navigation and a catalogue built for a ten-foot view.

Free to start

Live TV is free. Pro is the rest.

Connect your playlist and watch live channels on iPhone and iPad without paying us anything. Velora Pro unlocks the parts that took the most building — and it is an upgrade to the app, never a channel subscription.

Free

Live TV on iPhone and iPad. One playlist, ten favourites of each kind, and browsing your playlist on Apple TV.

Velora Pro

Films and series, the full XMLTV guide and zap grid, playback and Top Shelf on Apple TV, casting, iCloud sync, unlimited playlists and favourites, and folders you control.

How to pay

Monthly, six-monthly or yearly — the yearly plan opens with a 7-day free trial. Or buy Lifetime once and never renew. Family Sharing is on for every option.

What it costs

Prices are set per country and shown in your own currency on the App Store, and again in the app before you buy. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled; cancel any time in Settings.

Questions

The things people ask first.

Is Velora an IPTV service? Does it come with channels?
No to both, and it never will be. Velora is a media player and nothing more — effectively an empty app until you connect a playlist of your own. It sells no IPTV subscriptions, carries no channel line-up, and offers no trial accounts or lists of providers. Velora Pro is an upgrade to the app itself, not a channel subscription. The Apple TV app does bundle a handful of openly licensed demonstration streams — Apple's public test streams and a Creative Commons short film — so you can try the interface before connecting anything; that is demo media, not television. What you watch beyond it, and whether you are entitled to watch it, is entirely between you and the service you subscribe to.
Which playlist formats does it take?
Xtream Codes panels (server address, username, password) and standard M3U / M3U8 playlist URLs, each with an optional XMLTV guide — plain or gzipped. You can keep several playlists connected at once and switch between them.
Why does it need a second video engine?
Because Apple's player cannot open Matroska, AVI or a bare MPEG-TS stream, and that is what most panels actually serve — nearly every film arrives as an .mkv. Velora bundles libVLC for those and uses Apple's player everywhere it works, since it brings hardware decode, AirPlay, Picture in Picture and better battery life. The app chooses per stream; you just press play.
Do I need to sign in?
Not to Velora. There is no Velora account, because there is no Velora server. You sign in to your provider, and those credentials go straight into the device Keychain. If you're signed in to iCloud, your playlists and progress follow you between devices; if you're not, everything still works locally.
How does the Apple TV get my playlist?
Through iCloud. Add the playlist once on your iPhone and the Apple TV picks it up, reading the password from iCloud Keychain so you never type it on a remote. If that item hasn't arrived, the TV asks for the password in a single field rather than making you re-enter the whole thing — and you can set up on the TV directly if you don't own an iPhone.
What will it cost?
Pricing is not final yet. Velora is a one-off purchase rather than a subscription, and it's a universal app — buy it once and it's on your iPhone, iPad and Apple TV. Leave your address and we'll tell you the moment it's on the App Store.
