Browse live TV, search your library, check the guide, and start watching — no account, no recurring fees, no ads.
Privacy
AnarchTV is designed with privacy as a default, not an afterthought.
No analytics, no crash reporters, no third-party SDKs that phone home. Ever.
Your channel list, watch history, and favourites live only in a local SQLite database on your device.
Xtream Codes passwords are stored in the system Keychain. They are never sent to any server other than your IPTV provider.
The app only connects to your IPTV source, TMDB (for trending posters, optional), and Apple's AirPlay infrastructure.
