The fast IPTV player for your TV.
Primio plays your own playlists on Android TV. It switches channels quickly, stays smooth with huge lists, and is built for the remote.
Player only. Primio includes no channels, playlists or streams. You bring your own source.
Everything a TV evening needs
Other players charge for much of this. In Primio it is part of the player.
Fast channel switching
Built and measured on budget boxes. The tile shows how long each switch took.
Guide and catch-up
A dense TV guide, reminders, and one press to replay a programme from the archive.
Recording and timeshift
Record a programme or a whole series, pause live TV and rewind.
Several sources, one app
Combine playlists from different providers. Each channel shows where it comes from.
Favourites and My Primio
Mark your favourite channels and find watchlist, history and reminders in one place.
Profiles for the family
Separate profiles with PIN, a kids profile with its own limits, and a content lock.
Set up from your phone
Scan a code and type your playlist on the phone. The data is encrypted in your browser.
Made for the remote
Every function within a few presses. Nothing needs a mouse or a touch screen.
Good picture and sound
Audio passthrough, frame-rate matching, subtitles and a clear stream info panel.
How it looks
All screens show demo data. Channel names and programmes are invented.
Primio Plus
The player stays complete on its own. Plus adds services that run on our side and cost money to operate.
Why Plus needs an account
Watching never needs an account. Plus does, so your subscription works on all your devices and nobody else can use it.

- Better guide matchingChannels find their programme data more reliably, even when the provider's guide is patchy.
- Your own favourite listsCreate as many lists as you like, for sport, kids or news, and arrange them your way.
- The same on every deviceFavourites and lists follow your account to every TV you use.
- More to comeWe announce price and start date here and on r/primio.
Questions
Does Primio include channels or movies?
No. Primio is a player. It does not provide, host or sell channels, playlists, streams, movies or series. You add a source you are allowed to use.
Do I need an account?
Not for the player. An account is only needed for Primio Plus.
Which devices are supported?
Android TV and Google TV: boxes, sticks and TVs. Phone and tablet versions are planned.
Which sources work?
M3U playlists, Xtream Codes and Stalker portals. Stalker support is experimental. Guide data comes from your provider or from an XMLTV address you add.
What does Primio collect?
Your playlists and what you watch stay on your device. Crash reports and usage statistics are only sent if you agree, and you can switch them off in the settings.
How do I report a problem or ask for a feature?
Post in r/primio. Many features started as a request there.
