Everything you watch.
One app. Every screen.

A curated set of features that make every other player on your device look like a homework assignment.

🔲

Multi-View with 8 streams

Build a wall of live streams, promote one to a hero tile, save the layout, reload with one click.

🏠

Your server, built in

Host your library on your Mac and stream it anywhere. It is part of the same app, and your video never touches our cloud.

📶

Adaptive streaming

On a weak connection, your server lowers the stream quality in real time instead of buffering.

🎛️

A real picture suite

Sixteen live controls for gamma, color temperature, red/green/blue balance, sharpness and denoise, applied as you watch, on every screen.

🎧

Sync that fixes itself

Per-content lip-sync trims and automatic Bluetooth latency correction, so voices match mouths, even on AirPods.

Live captions & translation

On-device captions for any stream, then translated live into your language (iPhone, iPad & Mac).

⬇️

True offline downloads

Survive locks, restarts and bad Wi-Fi, then play anywhere, even in Airplane Mode. Subtitles come along for the ride.

Combined Mode

All your playlists behave as one lineup. Duplicate channels fold into a single row, and Rivue picks the best source for you automatically.

📱

Your phone is the remote

Control Rivue on your Mac, iPad or Apple TV from your iPhone. Type searches with a real keyboard instead of a remote.

🏈

Why Rivue exists

Every player I tried looked like it was built in 2009, buried my shows under ads, or quietly shipped my viewing habits off to an ad server.

So I built the one I actually wanted, and it has taken more hours than I can count. Properly native on every screen. Good looking enough that you want to leave it on. No ads and no trackers.

I want Rivue to be great for the people who use it. If you ever have feedback, I read every message.
