Your media, your way. Curatio is a premium player for the library you already own. Bring your own server and the sources you already use — Curatio gives them a beautiful, cinematic home on Apple TV, iPhone, and iPad. It hosts nothing and tracks nothing. Your library stays entirely yours. Powered by a custom mpv engine with HDR10 and HLG, Curatio plays your video the way it was mastered. On Apple TV it matches your TV's refresh rate and dynamic range automatically. On iPhone and iPad it matches ProMotion frame-for-frame.

  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Curatio 2.0 rebuilds how playback starts. • Automatic source selection. Curatio now picks a stream for you instead of taking the first one offered — favouring lighter, compatible sources that hold up on cellular and Wi-Fi, and reserving bandwidth headroom so playback doesn't stall mid-scene. • Faster, more reliable starts. Several sources are checked at once and playback begins as soon as a good one passes, usually within five seconds. Dead links and error pages are caught before they reach the player, and short placeholder clips can no longer mark a title as watched or wipe your resume point. • Automatic recovery. If a stream fails partway through, Curatio moves to the next best source on its own and stops retrying a provider that's already failing. • A clearer source list. Quality options now show resolution, release type, size and provider together at a glance, with 4K labelled as 4K. • Better skip prompts. "Skip intro" and "skip recap" now appear at confirmed segment boundaries, and a new Wrong timing button lets you flag a prompt that fired in the wrong place. • Smoother season switching. The season menu on a series no longer lags behind the page when you scroll while it's closing, and your selection always takes effect. • Search now follows your server's own ranking instead of reordering results on device. • Fixes: the watched badge no longer overlaps ratings on movie and series pages, and Continue Watching in your Library now matches the home screen exactly.
