Zapora
Features

Everything, everywhere.

32 features across Zapora on phones, Fire TV, Android TV, LG and Samsung. Items marked Premium need Premium; everything else is free.

Every way your service delivers

Add the logins your TV service gave you. Zapora works out the rest.

Xtream Codes, M3U and Stalker portals

Sign in with a username and password, paste a playlist link, or enter a portal address and MAC. Most players handle one or two of these; Zapora handles all three.

As many sources as you like Premium

Keep a backup service next to your main one and switch in a tap.

Type logins on your phone, not with a remote

On a TV, scan the code and fill the form on your phone. It appears on the TV a second later.

Live TV that feels like television

Fast zapping, a real guide, and everything you missed still there.

Full TV guide

A smooth grid across all your channels, with a live preview while you browse. Add an extra XMLTV guide if your service’s is thin.

Catch-up and start over Premium

Jump back into earlier programmes from the guide, or restart the one on now from the beginning.

Multi-view Premium

Up to four channels on one screen, with the sound following whichever one you pick.

Reminders

Set one from the guide and Zapora tells you, or switches channel for you, when it starts.

Score-safe mode Premium

Watching a game later? Zapora hides scores and results in the guide until you’re done.

Record live TV Premium

Record to your Android device and watch whenever you like.

Movies and series, done properly

Your service’s films and shows, looking like a streaming app rather than a file list.

Posters, plots, cast and ratings

Proper detail pages with artwork, trailers and ratings, matched automatically.

Skips intros and credits Premium

Intros, recaps and end credits skip themselves, and the next episode starts on its own.

Continue watching everywhere Premium

Stop on the TV, pick up on your phone at the same second.

New-episode alerts

Follow a show and Zapora tells you when a new episode reaches your service.

Download for later Premium

Save movies and episodes to your Android phone or tablet for the plane.

Trakt Premium

Your watch history and progress follow you to every app you use with Trakt.

A player that plays everything

Built on the best video engines for each device, with full control when you want it.

Choice of player

Zapora’s own player, ExoPlayer or VLC. Or hand any stream to VLC, MX Player or Kodi.

Subtitles that just work

Built-in tracks for free. Search online subtitles, load your own files and fix their timing with Premium.

Frame-rate matching

On Android TV the screen switches to the film’s frame rate, so pans stay smooth.

Picture in picture

Keep watching in a small window while you use other apps.

Cast to a TV Premium

Send what you’re watching to a Chromecast or smart TV.

Data saver

On mobile data Zapora picks lighter streams so your allowance lasts.

Up to six profiles Premium

PIN locks

Lock a profile, a category or a single channel.

Screen time and bedtime for kids

Set a daily allowance and a bedtime. When time’s up, the kids profile politely stops.

Watch together Premium

Host a room and friends anywhere press play, pause and seek with you, in sync.

Your phone as the remote

Scan the code on the TV and type, search and control playback from your phone.

Voice search

Say what you want to watch instead of spelling it with arrows.

Make it yours

Small things that add up to an app that fits.
