CarTV - M3U IPTV Player & Cast

CarTV plays user-supplied M3U playlists, local videos and supported personal media servers.

Our take

Consider for passenger or parked-vehicle media only

Playlist groups and resume state help organize supplied content.

Keep in mind: It provides no channels or licenses. Universal car-screen and any-app mirroring claims need testing and can be blocked by hardware or DRM. Never watch while driving.

What you can do

  • Import eligible playlist links or QR codes
  • Browse supported Jellyfin/Emby libraries
  • Play local files offline and resume media

Good for

  • Passengers with authorized media and compatible equipment

Consider alternatives for

  • Drivers watching moving vehicles or users seeking included IPTV channels

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 18.
  • It provides no channels or licenses. Universal car-screen and any-app mirroring claims need testing and can be blocked by hardware or DRM. Never watch while driving.

Privacy & permissions
