Reddate TV

Android TV · early test build

Watch together. Pick up exactly where you left off.

Reddate TV invites your whole household in one press, remembers the stream you like, and resumes from the same provider.

25 seconds. The dialog, invite pop-up and “Same as last time” are the real app; the chat is a dramatisation.

Watch parties

Invite a profile, a TV, or everybody.

Start a party and invite one profile on your account, or all of them at once. A pop-up appears on the other TV: Join, or Not now.

  • Friends outside your account join with a short code. The host doesn't have to approve anyone.
  • No limit on how many people can join.
  • The host drives play, pause and seek. A guest can pause on their own and press Sync to jump back.
  • Subtitles and audio language are chosen on each screen.

It remembers

Pick your stream once. Never scroll through a hundred again.

Reddate TV remembers the addon, quality, source, language and format you chose for a show. The next episode, the one after that, and tomorrow's resume all start the same kind.

You see it marked ★ Your usual, with the message "Same as last time".

Continue watching

Same spot. Same provider.

Your Continue watching row keeps the exact stream you used. Press OK and it resumes where you stopped, from the same addon and quality, and moves on to the next episode when this one ends.

Every profile has its own row.

Home screen

Your addons

You choose what's on Home and where streams come from.

Add catalog addons for your rows and stream addons for playback. Each one shows its logo on its streams, so you always know who a stream came from.

Never added an addon? Start here.

Know before you press

A connection check on every stream.

Each stream is tested on your TV's own connection. Green means plenty of headroom, yellow means just enough, red means it will probably buffer. The best ones come first.
