Your favourite TV channels, movies, and series. Playing beautifully on the big screen.
UHF is a smart, modern IPTV player made by people who actually care about how software feels. Whether you use M3U8, Xtream, Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby playlists, UHF turns your streams into a clean, super-smooth Apple TV experience that feels just like a premium streaming service.
And because we put our users first, we don’t lock the essentials behind a paywall. You get all our core playback and content tools completely free. No tricks, no nonsense.Here’s what you get for free:
- Search everything, instantly: Find that live channel, movie, or series across all your playlists in seconds. Handy colour-coding shows you exactly where each stream lives at a glance so you spend less time searching with your remote and more time watching.
- A TV guide built for Apple TV: Forget clunky, old-school grids that are a nightmare to navigate with a remote. We designed our EPG (Electronic Program Guide) from the ground up so gliding through schedules feels fast, responsive, and natural from your couch.
- Stream securely with a built-in VPN: Protect your privacy and avoid ISP throttling right on your Apple TV without needing a separate app. Our built-in VPN client connects effortlessly to all major VPN providers using WireGuard or OpenVPN protocols—so you can secure your big-screen stream in just a few clicks.
- Never miss a moment: Jump back in time with silky-smooth catch-up support, or pop your stream into a Picture-in-Picture window so you can keep an eye on a live game while browsing other apps.
- Track what you watch: Connect your Trakt account to log watched episodes, rate movies, and check your watchlist directly from the UHF home screen.
- Your library, your rules: Mark favourites, rename channels, reorder categories, or lock specific folders behind a PIN code to keep your living room setup tidy and kid-friendly.
- Record live TV with your own home server: Take full control of your recordings with UHF Server. Run our free companion app on any Mac, Windows, or Linux machine on your local network, and manage or watch your scheduled recordings right on your television.
- Watch your way: 4K HDR, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos support, seamless OpenSubtitles.com integration and more.
- No Wi-Fi drops, no worries: If your connection stutters, you don't need to back out and reload the channel. UHF quietly handles common playback errors and reconnects automatically.
Want to go PRO? UHF is free to use, but if you want to supercharge your setup (and support our little team while we build new features), we offer an optional PRO plan:
- Magic multi-device sync: Make a change on your iPhone or iPad, and it instantly updates on your Apple TV. Your playlists, recent views, favourites, and customisations stay perfectly in sync everywhere. It feels like magic.
- Zero ads and watermarks: Pure, uninterrupted viewing.
- Unlimited TV guide & alerts: Scroll as far ahead in the schedule as you like, and set alerts so you never miss a kickoff or a season premiere.
