How do I use several playlists in one app?
Add more sources under Settings › Playlists. The free version shows one playlist; with Tuner Plus all appear together in one channel list, and Best source merges the same channel from several sources into one row.
What you need
- Several links or logins
- Tuner Plus for more than one active playlist
Step by step
Add a playlist
Settings › Playlists › Add Playlist, then paste the link.
Set the order
The order of your playlists decides which source comes first.
Tidy up
Hide groups, rename channels or set rules – it all survives every update.
Merge variants
With Best source, FHD, 4K and backup of a channel appear as one row.
Good to know
- Tuner stores renames, logos and numbers separately from the playlist – an update never overwrites them.

Current pictures from the live programme if you want them; restart running shows when your provider offers catch-up.
