Installation, step by step

  1. App Store

    Search for “Nipo Player” on the App Store and install it like any other app.

  2. First launch

    Open Nipo Player: the home screen appears, ready for you to add a playlist.

iPhone and iPad

First setup: add your playlist

On iPhone and iPad, type your playlist’s address (M3U or an Xtream login) directly into the app, or scan the QR code Nipo shows on a TV that already has it installed.

Phone pairing page: entering the playlist

Touch controls and AirPlay

On iPhone and iPad, everything is touch-driven. Playback can be sent to a TV or device that supports AirPlay.

AirPlay

From the player, send picture and sound to a TV or AirPlay-compatible device on the same network.

Long-press

On a channel or a poster, holding it opens a quick menu (favourite, hide, move).

TV guide

The guide shows as a simple list, easier to read than a grid on a small screen.

Limits on this device

  • No recording or multiview on iPhone/iPad: limited to Android TV and computers.

When something goes wrong

  • Some movies are refused (error 406)

    Some playlist servers only serve movies to recognised players. On iPhone/iPad, playback goes through the system engine, which can’t always send the right signature.

  • AirPlay can’t find my TV

    Check that the phone and the TV are on the same Wi-Fi network, and that AirPlay is enabled on the TV.

  • Nothing happens when opening a channel

    Nipo shows a step-by-step diagnosis (connection, account, channel) and a report you can copy for support.
