Cathode is a clean, native video viewer for following channels and watching content on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Built with SwiftUI for a fast, lightweight experience.
FEATURES
• Follow channels and see all their latest videos in one feed
• Search for videos and channels
• Watch shorts and regular videos with a native player
• Picture-in-picture, background audio, and AirPlay support
• Save videos to Watch Later
• Pick up where you left off — playback progress syncs across your devices via your private iCloud account
• Read comments
• Compact mini-player while you keep browsing
• Curated channel suggestions across Tech, Science, Programming, Cooking, and Lifestyle to help you get started
CROSS-DEVICE SYNC
Watch Later, history, and saved channels are stored in your private iCloud account so they are always with you. Nothing is sent to our servers.
PRIVACY
Cathode does not collect personal information, has no analytics, and does not require an account. Your data stays on your device or in your private iCloud.
Videos do not load within the app unless they are from one of the suggested channels. I’ve added two channels and nothing loads.
Fix subtitles, improve feed, channel view video upload date
Browserer
Subtitles don’t seem to work. Improve the feed to show more content in an infinite scroll like YouTube and I think this app could be the best! Also, show upload date on the video listing when viewing a channel
Unusable
