NovArc Player

Samsung · LG · Android TV · Android phones and tablets

Your playlists, beautifully played.

NovArc Player brings your IPTV service to the big screen: live TV with a full guide, and movies and series that pick up where you left off, in English or Arabic.

Coming soon to the Samsung, LG, Google Play and Amazon app stores.

The NovArc TV guide: a grid of channels and their programmes through the evening.

Everything you want from your TV service

Made for the remote first, and just as comfortable on a phone.

  • Live TV, a full guide and catch-up

    Browse channels by category, see what's on now and next, and scroll a full programme grid. Replay earlier shows where your provider keeps an archive.

  • Movies and series

    Posters, details, seasons and episodes. Pick up where you left off, and the next episode starts on its own.

  • Plays what TV browsers can't

    The Android app plays HEVC, Dolby Digital, DTS and MKV itself, and Samsung and LG TVs use their built-in player. Pick audio and subtitle tracks, or load your own subtitles.

  • Profiles and parental controls

    Up to 8 profiles, each with its own favorites and history. Kids profiles and a PIN keep adult categories locked.

  • English and Arabic

    The whole app, with a right-to-left layout for Arabic. It follows your TV's language, or choose one in Settings.

  • Backups, and an easy move

    Favorites, history and settings are backed up, encrypted. Moving to a new TV? Copy them over with your old TV's device ID and key.

Bring your own playlist

NovArc Player is a player. It doesn't include, sell or host any channels, playlists or other content. Add a playlist from a provider you're entitled to use, as an Xtream Codes login or an M3U link.

Video always plays straight from your provider to your device. It never passes through our servers.

Try it free for 7 days

Every TV and phone gets its own free trial. After that, keep watching with a yearly or a lifetime license for that device.

Questions and answers

Does NovArc Player include channels?

No. It plays playlists you already have from your provider. We don't provide, sell or host any content.

Which devices does it run on?

Samsung smart TVs (Tizen) and LG smart TVs (webOS) from 2022 on, Android TV and Google TV, and Android phones and tablets. The apps are on their way to the app stores.

Does video go through your servers?

No. Streams play straight from your provider to your device. Our servers handle activation, the portal and backups. On Samsung and LG TVs they also pass along your channel list and TV guide (never the video), because those TVs can't fetch them directly.

Is a license for one device?

Yes. Each TV or phone has its own trial and its own license.

How do I move to a new TV?

On the old TV, open Settings › Backup & restore and choose Back up now. On the new TV, choose Restore from another device and enter the old TV's device ID and key.

Where are my playlists kept?

Playlists you add on the TV stay on the TV. Playlists you add in the portal are kept on our servers so your TV can fetch them, with their passwords encrypted.
