TV Launcher brings many live US TV channels that you know and love into one convenient launcher across Apple platforms. As the perfect app for cord-cutters, it’s never been easier to start watching live channels. * As featured on iMore & 9to5Mac * Appleʼs TV app makes it easy to track programs that have already been on but for the occasions where you want to watch live, it’s not so straightforward. You’ll have to open the app, find where the channels list is within the app, locate the channel you want to watch and the press play. TV Launcher takes away that pain by combining live channels from across multiple streaming apps into one location. Selecting a channel will then take you directly to the channel in the app without jumping through any hoops! TV Launcher contains these great features: US STREAMING PLATFORMS TV Launcher supports many US streaming platforms that have live TV! You’ll be able to jump straight to channels in CBS, ABC, NBC, FXNOW, TNT, TBS, Nat Geo TV, Tubi, Pluto TV, Amazon Prime Video, YouTube, Plex, ESPN, DAZN, NBA, MUTV, CNN, Bloomberg, Sky News, euronews, France 24, Al Jazeera and NHK World. WIDGETS & SHORTCUTS Multiple widgets are available so you'll be able to see what's on and select channels without even opening the app! Support for Siri Shortcuts means you can watch channels, fetch listings and perform other actions using just your voice on this device or a connected HomePod! There is also a Shortcut that will allow you to open the channel on your linked Apple TV too! APPLE WATCH Quickly see what's on now & next or add a Complication to your Watch Face with the TV Launcher app for Apple Watch. There's support for viewing a full day's listings and details about each program too. LIVE CHANNELS View what’s on for every channel in one place with full artwork for each channel and the ability to jump into the program to find out more. TV GUIDE Check out a full guide of listings for every channel so you can decide what to watch! WATCHLIST Add programs to your Watchlist and get notified when they’re about to start. NOW & NEXT See what's currently on and what will be on straight afterwards. FAVORITES If you have a select few channels you always like to watch, add them to your favorites list. HIDE CHANNELS Not interested in the news or don’t have kids? Choose the channels you want to hide and only keep around the ones you’re likely to watch. ICLOUD SYNCING Your favorite channels, hidden channels and other settings all sync via iCloud so if you have multiple devices using TV Launcher, they'll all be kept in sync. REGION Choose from East or West so you get shown the channels you expect. UNIVERSAL PURCHASE Get this app across multiple Apple platforms with a single purchase.

Last update:
In this update: - When selecting a program in widgets, it is now possible to view it in the TV Launcher app instead of immediately launching the channel. Launching the channel is still the default but this can be changed in Settings. - Added the ability to filter by program titles as well as channel names on the Home tab so you can find what you want to watch more easily. - Tapping a notification will now open the program in the app or launch the channel depending on settings. A long-press/pulling down on the notification will show both options. - Added the following Shortcuts actions: * Open TV Launcher to a specific tab. * Get the program that is on at a specific time on the selected channel. * Open a specific streaming app. * Get the link to open a channel in TV Launcher. * View a program in the TV Launcher app. * View a program in Apple’s TV app. * Create, update & delete custom apps. * Get & set channel priorities for sorting by relevance. * Get, add, remove & toggle the favorite & hidden state of channels. This replaces existing actions to add & remove channels from Favorites or the hidden list. * Add channels that are not currently associated with a guide. - Added the ability to only show upcoming programs in the Get Channel Schedule Shortcuts action. - Updated the wording & attributes of existing Shortcuts actions. - Programs with long names will be repeated in the TV Guide on all platforms, not just tvOS. - Fixed a bug which prevented the Show Upcoming Only toggle from showing on the Get Watchlist Programs action. - Fixed a bug which prevented the TV Guide Shortcuts action from working correctly on days that weren’t the current day. - Fixed a bug where settings may get overwritten when using TV launcher on a new device. - Fixed a bug where hidden channels were shown on the Search tab. - Other bug fixes & improvements.
