Bring your own server.
OliPlay is the player.
OliPlay opens the web interface of your home media server — Plex, Jellyfin, or any web front-end — and plays video in a fast native player built on the VLC engine. On iPhone and iPad.
Your server. Your content. One great player.
OliPlay doesn't host, sell, or stream anything. It connects to the media server you already run — and makes playback feel native.

FAQ
Which servers work with OliPlay?
OliPlay connects to the web interface of Plex, Jellyfin, or any web front-end your server exposes (part of OliPlay Pro). DLNA/UPnP servers on your local network are discovered and browsed for free.
Does OliPlay host or provide any content?
No. OliPlay is only the player. You connect it to your own server and your own media. The app ships with no content and no catalog.
Where is my data stored?
Nowhere but your device. No accounts, no analytics, no tracking. Server addresses and playback positions stay on the device and are deleted with the app. See the Privacy Policy.
Is OliPlay Pro a subscription?
No. It's a one-time purchase of $4.99, and Family Sharing is included.
What can I do without Pro?
Discover and browse DLNA/UPnP servers, play local files, use the full native player, and resume playback. Pro adds web-server connections, Picture in Picture, and audio boost.
What formats does it play?
OliPlay's player is built on the VLC engine, so it handles practically all common containers and codecs, with multiple audio tracks and embedded or external subtitles.
What about Android?
An Android version is in the works. The iOS app ships first.
