TiviMate information as of October 2026. EDGE IPTV does not record or replay past programmes: if you rely on that, keep TiviMate on your Android TV box and use EDGE IPTV on your iPhone and iPad.

Is there an official TiviMate app for iPhone?

No. TiviMate is built for Android TV boxes, Fire TV sticks and Android devices, and its developer has not released an iOS version. When you search "TiviMate" on the App Store you will still see apps with a similar name: they are other IPTV players, not TiviMate. Check the developer's name on the App Store page before installing one.

What carries over is your playlist. TiviMate, like EDGE IPTV, is only a player: the channels come from your IPTV provider, through an Xtream Codes login or an M3U link. Enter the same details in EDGE IPTV and you get the same channels on your iPhone and iPad.
