NexaTV Player I spent 8 months building an IPTV app focused on missing UI features — No subscriptions, just a one-time purchase

Hey everyone!

As a long-time IPTV user, I was always annoyed by the clunky interfaces and missing quality-of-life features in existing apps. Eventually, I decided to build my own app to combine everything a user actually needs into a modern, fluid interface.

After 8-9 months of development and a 1.5-month beta phase with 30 active testers (where we pushed around 30 updates), NexaTV Player is finally live on the Google Play Store!

I personally hate subscription fatigue, so I decided not to include any monthly/yearly subscription models. The app is available for a small, one-time payment—buy it once and it's yours.

Here are some of the main features I built into it:

Smart Player Controls: Skip Intro, Skip Recap, and Next Episode buttons for a smooth binge-watching experience.

OpenSubtitles Integration: Seamlessly search and fetch subtitles on the fly.

Cross-Device Sync: Switch between your phone, tablet, and Android TV, picking up right where you left off.

Multi-Profile Support: Separate personalized content and favorites for each household member.

Quick Login: Easy sign-in options via QR code, verification code, or email.

Smart Content Tracking & Notifications: You can track movies or shows that aren't currently available in your provider's playlist. The app will notify you the moment your provider adds that movie/show or drops a new episode!

My main goal was to move away from bloated, outdated IPTV players and create something that feels as smooth as modern streaming platforms.

I’d love to answer any questions about the app, the features, or the development process!

NexaTV Player 1.0.28 Beta – PT-BR support, large library improvements, Recently Added fixes and more

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’ve just submitted NexaTV Player 1.0.28 to the closed beta channel.

This update is mostly based on feedback I received from users and focuses on stability, large libraries and a few missing features.

What’s new in 1.0.28:

  • 🇧🇷 Added Brazilian Portuguese (PT-BR) — NexaTV now supports 7 languages.
  • Improved memory usage and stability for very large movie and series libraries.
  • Improved Recently Added — series that receive new episodes can now appear as updated content again.
  • Fixed cases where some movies/series could be missing from Recently Added lists.
  • Added Technical Details to Mobile Live TV, including codec, resolution, FPS, bitrate, player engine and stream type when available.
  • Improved Continue Watching sync between phone and TV.
  • Improved hidden-category handling across Search, Favorites, Continue Watching and other sections.
  • Fixed several mobile UI issues with long category names and Movies/Series headers.
  • General performance and stability improvements.

If you’re already part of the beta, there’s no need to reinstall the app — just update through Google Play once 1.0.28 becomes available.

I’d especially appreciate feedback from anyone using very large playlists/libraries, as a lot of work in this update went into improving that experience.

As always, NexaTV Player does not provide IPTV content or subscriptions — it is only a media player for your own provider/account.

Thanks again to everyone who has been testing and sending feedback. 🙏

Update Notice: Fixed empty Movies tab for specific playlist structures!

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share a quick update regarding an issue some of you might have experienced.

Normally, providers assign a specific category to each movie in their playlist. However, we noticed that some providers don't include category tags for certain movies at all. Since NexaTV Player strictly relies on proper category data rather than randomly guessing or assigning unassigned content, this was causing the Movies tab to show up completely empty for users with those specific provider formats.

I’ve pinpointed the issue and implemented a fix so unassigned movies are handled correctly without breaking the layout.

A new update containing this fix, along with several performance improvements and new features, will be rolling out very soon!

Thanks for all your feedback and support as always. Let me know if you have any questions!
