StremioX is now a native app on iPhone, iPad, and Mac alongside Apple TV, all running the same stremio-core engine and libmpv player. This release retires the old iPhone and iPad web host. Below is everything in the apps today, what each platform adds on top, and what is coming next. Full per-version history is in CHANGELOG.md.

New in 0.3.0

  • In-player next / previous episode, an episode list, and end-of-episode auto-advance on iPhone, iPad, and Mac (episodes switch in place, carrying resume and quality forward).
  • Sleep timer (15 to 90 minutes, or stop at the end of the current episode).
  • A native macOS menu bar: a Go menu with keyboard shortcuts, Settings on Command comma, and Check for Updates.
  • A translucent top bar on iPhone browse screens, a streaming-server log in Settings, and the launch animation on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
  • The iPhone streaming server is far more stable (device-scaled torrent cache), finishing a mid-series episode no longer clears the series from Continue Watching, series find their sources, playback records to Continue Watching and resumes, and a long list of iPhone display fixes (see the betas in the changelog).

On every device (iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV)

  • Your account, add-ons, library, and Continue Watching, kept in sync.
  • Cinematic detail pages and ranked Watch Now with a two-level quality picker (resolution, then variant).
  • An interactive auto-rotating featured hero with a muted trailer on Home, Library, and Discover.
  • Live TV: channels from your installed tv / IPTV add-ons as channel tiles, with a now-and-next strip from the channel's EPG and live-tuned playback.
  • Torrent streaming (now on Mac too, which bundles the streaming server), plus debrid and direct links.
  • HDR, Dolby Vision, and HEVC playback.
  • Skip intro and outro from crowd timestamps.
  • In-player episode navigation with auto-advance, and a sleep timer.
  • Profiles, eight accent themes, and a launch animation.
  • External player handoff (Infuse, VLC) for direct and debrid links.

Apple TV adds

  • A focus-and-remote interface tuned for the living room, with the focused dynamic backdrop and rail viewport.
  • Automatic performance mode on the memory-constrained Apple TV HD (every Apple TV 4K stays full).

iPhone and iPad add

  • A touch-native interface with a custom tab bar.
  • A streaming-server log in Settings.
  • A manual landscape lock in the player.

Mac adds

  • A native menu bar: a Go menu with Command-key shortcuts (tabs and Search), Settings on Command comma, and Check for Updates.
  • Runs as a resizable desktop window.
  • Ships as a drag-to-install .dmg: no Apple ID, no re-signing, and it never expires.

KNOWN ISSUES

Movies are not found reliably by the sources
The streaming server Crashing in iOS and iPadOS
Continue Watching resume player not showing all the controls and chooses wrong stream

Coming next

  • Next-episode pre-search and sticky release-group auto-play for iOS, iPadOS and Mac just like TVOS(so quality does not jump mid-season).
  • An animated hero background, an HTTP/HLS quality selector, and wider iPad and Mac layouts.
  • A fuller accessibility pass, and more of the ongoing quality audit.

Install

Mac (.dmg, easiest, never expires). Download StremioX-macOS-0.3.0.dmg, drag StremioX into Applications, then clear Apple's one-time quarantine: open it once, click Done, then System Settings > Privacy & Security > Open Anyway (or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/StremioX.app). Full guide: Install on Mac.

iPhone, iPad, Apple TV (sideload the IPA). The IPAs are unsigned, because StremioX is open-source and distributed outside the App Store with no Apple Developer ID yet, so you re-sign them yourself with Sideloadly, AltStore / SideStore, or Signulous. No jailbreak. Full guide: Installing on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV.
