Make a twenty thousand channel list yours in one evening
Favorite, pin, lock, hide, reorder and bulk-edit from one menu, with a Control Center that can undo every change you ever made.
A raw playlist arrives with thousands of channels in nobody’s order. mtivi gives you the tools to fix that in minutes, and a safety net so you can be ruthless about it.
One menu, everywhere
Long-press OK on any channel, category, film or collection. The same menu appears across the whole app.
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Favorite | Puts it at the top of the list |
| Pin | Holds it at the top, or pins a whole category into My Collections |
| Lock | Asks for your PIN before it plays |
| Hide | Takes it out of the lists without deleting anything |
| Move | Sends a channel into another category, or into Kids or Private |
| Add to a collection | Your own category, built from anything in the list |
The Manage screens, for doing it in bulk
Live TV has Manage Channels, Manage Categories and Manage Sections. Tick a run of rows and favorite, lock, pin or hide the lot in one action, and the app tells you how many it changed. Movies and Series have the same. Tidying a fresh playlist takes minutes rather than an evening of single presses.
Control Center is the undo for all of it. Under Settings, it gathers every hide, lock, pin and reorder you have made anywhere in the app, with a reset for the lot. That is what makes aggressive tidying safe: nothing you do here is permanent, and nothing is ever deleted from your playlist.
Your own categories
Create a collection, add anything to it, rename it, lock it, or pin a whole category into it. Unlike your service’s categories, these are yours to name.
It survives a refresh
Favorites, pins, locks, hidden items and your order are tied to the playlist, so a daily refresh or a channel renumbering at your service does not undo your work.
