How ARENALIVE works

ARENALIVE runs on iPhone with iOS 17 or later. Download it from the App Store, open it and go through the three short welcome screens.

Tap Add playlist and choose how your provider gave you access:

• M3U link: paste the playlist URL.
• Xtream codes: enter the server address, username and password.

Name the playlist if you like. Large playlists can take a minute to load. The link stays only on your iPhone, and an Xtream password is saved in the iPhone Keychain. You can add more than one playlist, and set playlists to update automatically every day or every week.

Browse channels by the groups your provider set up, or search by name. Your favorites and recent channels wait for you in the Library.

Playing channels needs a subscription. Pick a weekly, monthly or yearly plan in the app. The yearly plan can start with a free trial if you're eligible. Our How to subscribe page has the details.

Tap a channel to play it. If a stream doesn't load or you lose your connection, the app tells you and lets you try again.

Connect your iPhone to CarPlay and ARENALIVE shows your channels and favorites on the car screen.

• While you drive: audio only. Pick a channel and listen through the car speakers.
• While parked: video can play on the car screen, in cars that support it.

Video stops automatically when the car starts moving, and the audio keeps playing. Where video isn't available in your car, the app says so and plays audio. Never watch while driving.

An account is optional. Sign in with Apple or with a code we email you, and your subscription comes with you to your other iPhones.

In the app, Settings then Account lists every device signed in to your account. Remove one and it's signed out straight away. An account can have up to 20 devices.

Playlists stay on the iPhone where you added them, so add them again on a new device.

Write to our support email (in the site footer) and tell us what you see on screen. We'll help you get playing.
