Kyro parses and caches your playlist — large catalogs (50k+ channels) take ~30 seconds the first time. After that, launches are near-instant.
iPhone and iPad quirks worth knowing.
Background playback keeps pausing
iOS aggressively suspends background audio unless the app has the right entitlement. Kyro Player supports background audio on Premium only — and iOS still requires you to keep the app in foreground for 1–2 seconds after switching streams for the handoff to stick.
AirPlay to Apple TV isn't working
iOS AirPlay for video only works over Wi-Fi on the same network. Disable Private Address on iOS Wi-Fi settings and re-pair if needed. Ensure your Apple TV has AirPlay enabled in Settings › AirPlay & HomeKit.
Picture-in-Picture
PiP works on iOS 15+. Tap the PiP icon in the player, or swipe home while a video is playing. PiP is supported across both free and Premium tiers.
Restrictions on 4K streams
Some older iPhones (8, XR) decode H.265/HEVC in hardware but not 4K H.265 above 30 fps. If 4K stutters, try streaming at 1080p or use an iPhone 11 or newer.
Cellular data
By default, Kyro streams on any connection. To restrict to Wi-Fi only, toggle "Allow cellular streaming" off in Settings. 4K HDR streaming can exceed 15 GB/hour — watch your data plan.
Family Sharing
Premium and Lifetime purchases support Apple Family Sharing when enabled on your Apple ID. Up to 6 family members can use the same subscription.
