One engine. Four Apple platforms. Your add-ons, your library, your history, on every screen.

One engine, every screen

The same app, native everywhere.

Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, and Mac, all on the same Rust engine and the same real player. What you watch follows you, because it is one product, not four ports.

What it feels like to use

Press play. Watch the best.

No wading through a wall of links. VortX scores every source the way you would, plays it on a real player, and gets out of the way.

One press, the best source

Watch Now, ranked.

Press play once and VortX plays the best release your add-ons return. Resolution leads, a true remux beats web, Dolby Vision and lossless audio carry weight, and file size only breaks ties. The full per-add-on list stays a button away for the times you want to choose.

A real player, not a wrapper

libmpv under the hood.

A true mpv core, the same engine power users trust, drives playback. TrueHD and Atmos, HDR and Dolby Vision, and subtitles that render properly. Hold to seek, switch quality without losing your place, skip intros, jump to the next episode, or hand off to Infuse or VLC.

Browse like the big apps

Cinematic by default.

Detail pages go full bleed. Artwork fills the screen, a muted trailer plays behind it, and a living backdrop drifts as you move. Continue Watching, every catalog, Discover, Live TV, and search all run on the engine, so it behaves like the official clients because it is the same core.

No paywalls, no asterisks

Everything other clients charge for.

Profiles, skip intro, keyword filters, enriched metadata. All of it ships here free, on our own implementations that lean on nobody’s gated backend.

Show a code on your Apple TV, scan it with your phone, done. A VortX account, free and login-less. Sync arrives with the app.

Honest answers

Questions, answered.

Is VortX affiliated with Stremio?

No. VortX is its own product. It is built on the open-source stremio-core engine and works with Stremio add-ons, but it is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Stremio.

Does VortX host or provide any content?

No. VortX hosts and indexes no media and provides no content of its own. It plays only what your own installed add-ons return. You bring your own add-ons.

How do I install it?

The apps are sideloaded for now, with Sideloadly, AltStore, SideStore, or Signulous on iPhone and Apple TV, and a right-click to open on Mac. A self-hosted update channel is on the way.

What does it cost?

Nothing. VortX is free and open source under GPL-3.0. Everything other clients moved behind a paywall ships here free, on our own implementations.

Everything, VortXed.

Bring your add-ons. Keep your privacy. Watch on every Apple screen you own.
