Forward - AI Media Hub

Cloud NAS Video Player

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad

AI-organized media hub for cloud, NAS, Emby, Jellyfin, Stremio, and local videos. 1.3.17 also improves subtitles, detail pages, and tvOS playback. Forward is an AI-powered media aggregation hub and video player for people whose movies and shows live across cloud drives, NAS, Emby, Jellyfin, Stremio, modules, and local files. It does more than play videos: it organizes scattered sources, metadata, posters, subtitles, watch progress, and airing calendars into one personal cinema library. Key features: - AI media organization: recognize movies, series, seasons, and episodes, then match TMDB metadata, posters, stills, and trailers to reduce manual file naming and library cleanup. - Multi-source aggregation: bring cloud drives, NAS, WebDAV, SMB, media servers, modules, and local videos into one searchable playback hub. - Personal media library: customize your home screen, Continue Watching, watched states, watchlists, episode reminders, and cross-device sync. - High-quality playback: play common formats such as MKV, MP4, AVI, and MOV with support for HDR, Dolby Vision, spatial audio, and smooth controls. - Smart subtitles: auto-match subtitles, load SRT/SSA/ASS files, use secondary subtitles, custom subtitle-source headers, and flexible styling. - tvOS-first controls: optimized remote focus, progress bar interaction, still-image browsing, and intro/credit skip behavior. Metadata and artwork shown by Forward are provided by TMDB, a community-maintained movie and TV database.
