Plex client for Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, Mac & Android

A Plex client that treats your librarylike the main event.

Riveo connects to your Plex Media Server and turns it into a fast, cinematic library on Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, Mac, Android phones, tablets and Android TV. Sign in once, and your movies, shows and collections appear alongside everything else you watch.

It is a player, not a replacement for your server. Plex keeps managing your files and metadata; Riveo focuses on browsing and playback with 4K UHD, HDR10 and Dolby Vision, subtitles, multiple audio tracks and offline downloads.

Free download. No account required. Riveo PRO is optional.
