• Jump between seasons, see what you've watched and start the next episode.
Playback
• Lucid Engine plays your media on iPhone, iPad and Apple TV, with Vivid's own controls.
• Subtitles and chapters from your media, plus optional intro, recap and credits skips.

Made for Apple devices
• Designed for touch on iPhone and iPad, and for the Siri Remote on Apple TV.
• Top Shelf on Apple TV shows what you're watching.
• Saved accounts and preferences sync through your private iCloud, so a new device is ready to go.

Optional extras
• Trailers, ratings, the Calendar and Studios & Networks are built in, with nothing to set up.
• Connect MDBList, Simkl or OpenSubtitles with your own free accounts.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• Fixed films closing a minute or two in when played straight after opening Vivid on a large library.
• Fixed going back to the server choice instead of sign-in after connecting to a server.
• Search, brand pages and collection rows use far less memory on large libraries.
