Original release notes

Your own streaming service, redesigned. REPLAY 7.0 is here.

A CINEMATIC NEW HOME
On iPhone, what you're watching now fills the top of Home: its scenes drift by and its preview plays, with My List, Play and Info right underneath. Play Something leads the row of genres.

A REBUILT SEARCH
The search field is always at the top. Before you type: Play Something, genres to tap, and recommendations from your own library. As you type: posters first, then every matching episode, each with a play button.

PLAY SOMETHING
Can't decide? One tap and REPLAY picks a show or movie for whoever's watching, tells you why, and starts it.

SMOOTHER PLAYBACK
Videos now download ahead as they play, even when iCloud is slow to hand them over, so the picture keeps going. Settings › Playback shows how your last video played.

BETTER MOVIE POSTERS
REPLAY now uses the artwork already inside your movie files. For the rest, it designs a poster from the film's best scene, with titles that always fit.

A WARMER WELCOME
New to REPLAY? Home now shows you what your library will look like before you add a thing, on iPhone, iPad and Apple TV.
