Terms of Use

Last updated: July 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By installing or using Tunvio (the "App") you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the App and uninstall it.

2. What Tunvio Is

Tunvio is solely a viewer / player application. The Tunvio Project does not host, stream, distribute, sell, or curate any IPTV, video, audio, or other content. All channels, movies, and series that become visible inside the App originate exclusively from the source you configure yourself in a profile (Xtream Codes API, M3U playlist, a direct stream URL or a Stalker portal). The App merely establishes the technical connection to that source you have chosen and renders the signal locally on your device — or, where you ask it to, passes it on to a playback device on your own network (Chromecast / DLNA).

3. Responsibility for Your Sources

You are solely responsible for ensuring that your IPTV provider or playlist holds all rights necessary to transmit the relevant content to you. Use of the App with unauthorised, infringing, or otherwise unlawful sources is strictly prohibited. Violations may have criminal and civil consequences for you — the Tunvio Project bears no responsibility for them.

4. No Affiliation with IPTV Providers

The Tunvio Project has no commercial, contractual, technical, or personal relationship with any provider whose credentials a user may enter into the App. We do not endorse, advertise, or support any specific provider. The choice of provider is made by each user on their own responsibility.

5. Premium Features, Purchases and Subscriptions

Certain features of the App may be offered as paid premium features via in-app purchase or subscription.

  • Where you buy depends on where your copy of the App came from: payment is processed either through the store that distributed it (Apple App Store, Google Play or Amazon Appstore), whose respective terms also apply, or — for builds not distributed through a store — through a hosted checkout in your web browser. Either way the payment is handled by that provider; the Tunvio Project receives and stores no payment data.
  • Where no purchase channel exists — for instance on Samsung Tizen smart TVs, which offer no in-app purchases — nothing is sold, and the premium features are simply available.
  • Subscriptions renew automatically in accordance with the terms of the channel you purchased through, unless cancelled in time. Management and cancellation are handled through your App Store, Google Play, or Amazon account settings, or — for a purchase made in the browser — through the customer portal linked in your purchase confirmation.
  • Where required by law (e.g. the EU right of withdrawal), your statutory rights remain unaffected. Refunds are processed according to the policies of the channel you purchased through.
  • The App uses the RevenueCat service to manage entitlement status; details of the data processing are set out in the Privacy Policy (https://tunv.io/privacy-policy).

6. Metadata from TMDB and Online Subtitles

Tunvio displays additional information about movies and series from The Movie Database (TMDB). This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB. The enrichment is part of how the catalogue is displayed and has no separate on/off switch; what you can do at any time is delete the metadata cached on your device, under Settings → Data & Storage. Requests are made through a caching proxy operated by the Tunvio Project, which supplies the required TMDB key server-side; you do not need a key of your own. See the privacy policy (https://tunv.io/privacy-policy) for details of the data processing involved. The Tunvio Project has no commercial or other relationship with TMDB and makes no warranty as to the availability, accuracy, or completeness of the data supplied by TMDB.

If you search for subtitles online — or switch on automatic loading, which is off by default — Tunvio queries OpenSubtitles through a caching proxy likewise operated by the Tunvio Project, which supplies the required credentials server-side; you do not need an account of your own. Subtitles are user-generated third-party content: the Tunvio Project neither creates nor reviews them and gives no warranty as to their availability, accuracy, timing, or completeness. There is no commercial or other relationship with OpenSubtitles.

7. Recordings and Downloads

On platforms that support it, the App can record a running stream or save an item for offline viewing. This happens entirely on your own device and draws on the source you configured yourself; the Tunvio Project is not involved in the transfer and receives neither the files nor any information about them.

Whether you may make such a copy is your responsibility. It follows from your provider's terms and from the copyright law applicable to you, which in many jurisdictions permits a private copy only, and only for your own use. Passing recordings or downloads on to third parties, publishing them, or otherwise making them publicly available is prohibited.

The files are stored on your device. If you have chosen a destination folder of your own for them in Settings, they remain there when you uninstall the App and, depending on the folder chosen, may be readable by other apps — the privacy policy (https://tunv.io/privacy-policy) explains this in more detail.

8. No Warranty

The App is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind, express or implied. In particular, no assurance is given that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for a particular purpose, or that any specific source will be reachable or compatible.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Tunvio Project shall not be liable for any indirect, direct, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising out of the use of, or inability to use, the App — including but not limited to: legal consequences resulting from the choice of unlawful content sources, loss of data, loss of use, content received from, or damage caused by, third-party servers. Mandatory statutory liability (e.g. for intent, gross negligence, or under product liability law) remains unaffected.

10. Acceptable Use

The following is in particular prohibited: (a) any use that violates applicable law; (b) reverse engineering of the App for malicious purposes; (c) using the App to automatically retrieve or redistribute third-party content or data, beyond the recording and download features the App itself provides (see Section 7); (d) any use that harms third parties or infringes their rights.

11. Changes to These Terms

These Terms of Use may be updated when future changes to the App warrant it. The current version is always available at https://tunv.io/terms-of-use and in the App under Settings → About → Terms of Use. Continued use of the App after a change constitutes acceptance of the new version.
