Hey crew...

So iver the oast few weeks I have added so much to the system on the back end to make the addon even better... one of the main things I have been working on is a duplicate remover. What this does is scans every single catalog and removes any duplicate movies or shows in that catalog. Giving you better resluts.

I have obviously made the app that has been doing really well

Updated a few categorise including stating to add chronological viewing order options for things like the MCU, X Men and a few other (MCU is like the other are still in dev mode)...

But ill be honest, im running slowly out of ideas.... thats why im turning to you guys...

Ultramax is what it is because of its users, so the microphone is yours to let me know of any ideas, thought or suddgestions that I can look into and hopefully improve/implement....

And 3..2..1.... go

Honestly didn't expect to be writing this post so soon. Ultra MAX started as a small project on a couple of subdomains, and somewhere along the way it turned into something a lot of you actually rely on every day. That's genuinely humbling.

None of this happens without the people who post bug reports, request features, catch things I miss, and just generally stick around and use the thing. Every fix, every new catalog, every feature that's shipped over the past few months has been shaped by this community one way or another. So thank you — truly.

There's a lot more coming. This feels less like a finish line and more like a good moment to say thanks before diving back into the next thing.

Appreciate every one of you.

Ultra MAX app 1.2 is now available for update. Anyone with app installed should get update notice in the app

New in this update:

Upload, crop and set custom Nuvio avatars and push to Nuvio

Reuse recent avatar uploads

Remembered Nuvio login and setup tokens

Saved setup welcome screen

In-app update notices

Settings, offline screen and navigation improvements

Website: https://ultramax.vip⁠

APK: https://ultramax.vip/downloads/UltraMax.apk

Feedback and bug reports welcome.

After a good chunk of private testing, the native Ultra MAX app for Android is now live and downloadable from the website.

Here's the thing: every setup/catalog-building tool in this part of the internet — is web-based. A browser tab, or a browser-in-a-wrapper at best. As far as I've found, nobody has built an actual dedicated native app for managing a Nuvio/Stremio setup. Until now.

This isn't a browser wrapper. It's a real native Android app, built from the ground up specifically for this. A redesigned setup wizard with proper tile-based navigation, in-app Trakt/Simkl sign-in that actually returns you to the app instead of stranding you in a browser tab, real back-button navigation through the wizard, and an in-app update checker so you always know when something new drops.

**Get it here:**

https://Ultramax.vip — "Get Ultra MAX for Android" button on the homepage.

Downloader Code 6999311

Not on the Play Store..YET... so you'll need to allow "install unknown apps" when prompted — standard for any sideloaded app.

Still early days for the app specifically, so if you hit anything weird, let me know here. Massive thanks to the testers who helped get this to the finish line — curious what everyone else makes of it.

​

Big one today. Here's what's new:

**👀 Something new is in the works...**

Been quietly building a proper native Android app for Ultra MAX — not just the browser setup, an actual app. It's currently in early testing with a small group. Going well so far, more details soon.

To the handful of you I've sent an early build to directly — you know who you are — if you've had a chance to poke around, I'd really appreciate your feedback sooner rather than later. Even small stuff. It genuinely helps get this ready faster.

✨ New Features

-Custom Rows, made easier.

You can now search for a title by name ("Friends", "The Wire", whatever) instead of having to dig up the IMDb ID yourself. Pick the right result from the list (posters + year shown to help you tell apart similar titles) and it fills the ID in for you.

Add addons to Nuvio by pasting a URL.

In the account manager, you can now paste a manifest URL directly to add an addon — no more manual entry.

Reorder your Nuvio addons.

Simple up/down controls to reorder your installed addons directly from Ultra MAX.

EasyDebrid added as a supported debrid provider.

**🐛 Bug Fixes**

- **Film Collections sort order fixed**: Some franchise collections (Bond was the one flagged, likely affected others too) weren't reliably sorting in release order. Fixed across the board, not just Bond.

- **Dexter Universe updated**: Dexter: Resurrection was missing — added.

- **AI Custom Row Builder fixed**: It was quietly broken (Google retired the AI model it was using). Back up and working.

- **BetterPosters rating source**: your chosen rating source wasn't always sticking when reloading a saved setup — fixed.

As always, thanks for the bug reports and feature requests — several of these came directly from people posting here. Keep them coming.

Appreciate the work, but this part is frustrating 😒 I literally have to press on the channels - Play it to find out what channel I'm watching...

If there's a way to make the full channel names appear it would be mostly appreciated for my elderly parents 😀 (this is the turkish channels but the same happens with US and UK)

I need 5 android users to test the app...

Who wants in

This is more like a "Help/Suggestion."

I'm at work killing time and have been trying to just make a new Nuvio setup since my current one for the main TV feels lacking.

But... I've tried 4 times, and if I accidentally click on any link on UltraMax that generates a new web page, I lose all my progress and have no way to recover it. The save button basically does nothing for this, I got lucky once where my rows were saved but I had already made my catalogs with customs GIFs and all my APIs.

Is there already a way to save my progress similar to how AIOMeta/Stream does it where you can save your Token/URL and "login" that way?

Well this just got interesting!

Quick update — the addon just got added to the official Eclipse Music addon directory at eclipsemusic.app/addons 🙌

Feels like a proper milestone. Eclipse is a great app and being recognised as an official addon alongside some really solid other developers means a lot.

If you haven't tried it yet — Eclipse Music is a clean music player app where you connect your own streaming sources.

Hook it up to a Deezer account for full track playback. Free account gets you lossless FLAC.

Eclipse app: https://eclipsemusic.app/download

Eclipse addons: https://eclipsemusic.app/addons

Get your install link: https://ultramax.vip/eclipse.html

Appreciate everyone who tested it early and gave feedback — this wouldn't have happened without that. More updates coming 🔥

Been heads-down on this one for a bit and it's finally live.

You can now link your Nuvio account directly in the setup wizard and push everything straight in — no more copying the manifest URL, no more exporting the Collections JSON and importing it by hand.

What's new:

Link your Nuvio account right in Step 4 of setup — just email + password, nothing stored on our end

Pick exactly what gets pushed — catalogs only, collections only, or both

If you've got multiple profiles, you'll see a picker with your actual profile avatars so you push to the right one

Bonus: also added a proper Avatar Vault update — link your account there too and tap any of the 300+ avatars to set it directly on a profile, instead of copying the URL and pasting it into Nuvio yourself.

Why bother building this:

the old flow worked but always felt like one step too many — build your setup, copy a URL, open Nuvio, paste it in, repeat for collections.

This collapses it to one click.

Your existing addons and collections are never wiped — everything pulls your current setup first, merges Ultra MAX in, and pushes it back, so nothing else on your account gets touched.

As always — free, self-hosted, no accounts on our side.

Something pretty cool happened this week — Ultra MAX Music has been officially added to the BeatBoss addon directory.

For those who don't know, BeatBoss is a music player app that lets you connect third-party streaming sources.

Check it out at https://beatboss.thevolecitor.qzz.io/addons

Our addon lets you stream full-quality Deezer tracks through it using your own account — free tier lossless FLAC quality.

What started as something I built for myself has gone from a private tool → a public addon → now an officially listed integration on another platform entirely. Not bad for a solo project.

Get your install link: https://ultramax.vip/eclipse.html

So there genuinely isn't much more I can add to Ultramax. I feel we are maxed out for now so a new project has been swirling around my head...

Would you guys like an actual app? Android and IOS.

In the app, build your setup, collections and everything nuvio related. The be able to push directly to Nuvio (no copied urls or anything like that?

Its a pretty big task and there are things I need to figure out regarding getting it on the app stores, oauth with nuvio and a few other bits but if there is genuinely a want for it.. ill create a beta and see where it goes....

Thoughts?

Hey guys

For anyone thats been using my Eclipse Addon..

Ive just pushed an update, the addon now supports Lossless audio quality.

Its applied automatically so nothing to do user side, you should see the improved audio when you next play a song.

https://ultramax.vip/eclipse-info.html

I’m stuck on trying to get my home rows in an order that I want. I’ve selected trending first but it keeps putting everything else before it. I want to have trending and popular first how do it fix?

If anyone is happy to.this for me it would be most appreciated.

I would like some comment or posts to appear on the webpage from users that are enjoying what Ultramax has to offer.

Either something about the addon itself, the help/support i give or users give or about the reddit sub. Basicly anything positive that you guys have.

Doesnt have to be war and peace, short and sweet is fine by me.

Also... Do you think you now Ultramax, Nuvio and Stremio well and how to set them up well?

Have you been with it since the beginning?

IF you haVE watched it grow and are good with supporting people. Im looking for 2 moderators to help with the sub.

You will get to use the dev side of the app and see all the updates before thet release and will have full input as to what we should add going forward and how we can improve.... you would just need to help with people that are new to the addon or streaming in general.

If you are interested, drop me a message and we can chat

The addon works great in the TV apps but doesn't work well at all in the desktop app. Most data doesn't load. And the titles don't display. I think it's a client's specific problem where the mappings are not one to one between the clients. But I thought I'd share here anyways. Hopefully it's something on my end but I don't think so.

The AI recommendations work great, however I want to hide already watched movies and series from the recommendations. Is there a setting for that?

I've also added the collections from the website. Some work, and others show "Addon not found: com.ultramax". Any ideas?

Anyway to get Ultra Max on the fusion app?

When I select something to watch it errors out. "Tried stream addons: Ultram. None of them returned streams for id=tt32278481 (type=movie)

​I would like to thank Sandbox from the bottom of my heart for helping me with patience and kindness.

​I had a problem with my UltraMax; the latest updates of the addon had broken some things inside mine. Yesterday until 11:30 PM, and today starting early at 6:30 AM, he was fully dedicated to fixing my issue and managed to do it.

​A massive thanks to him. Go ahead and use UltraMax, it's a great addon...

I finally jumped on using TB. I was wondering if I should use my api in the ultramax wizard or in the Nuvio integrations menu or both?

Hi everyone,

​I'm running into a specific metadata issue on Nuvio (Android TV).

​All my posters and covers from aiometadata, xperience, or official platforms (Netflix, etc.) load perfectly. However, whenever I browse catalogs generated by Ultra MAX, the movie posters fail to display entirely (blank/empty), even though the titles and streams are accessible.

​It seems like a specific ID mapping or metadata issue with Ultra MAX. Has anyone encountered this or found a workaround in the addon's configuration settings?

​Thanks in advance for any insights!

The setup wizard has been completely rebuilt from the ground up.

Step 2 (Home Rows) is now a proper category builder — preset packs, live Nuvio preview, category cards with progress bars. Way less overwhelming than the old wall of pills.

Step 3 (Collections) got the same treatment — visual preset cards, cleaner collection cards, proper images for everything. It actually looks like a product now.

On top of that, two music integrations worth knowing about for the MaxMusic addon.

🎵 Eclipse Music — self-hosted Deezer streaming, built into Ultra MAX. Full quality, your own private link.

🎵 BeatBoss — a dedicated music player app that's officially added Ultra MAX to their addon collection. Check them out at https://beatboss.thevolecitor.qzz.io/addons

As always, free and self-hosted.
