Is there a Ktime app for iPhone?

Yes — Ktime installs on iPhone and iPad as a home-screen app from Safari, not from the App Store.

The Ktime icon then opens the full app, full screen, with films, series and live TV.

How do I install Ktime on my iPhone or iPad?

Ktime installs on an iPhone or iPad from Safari in four taps, and the steps are the same on both:

Open ktime.app/app in Safari — not inside Telegram, Instagram or WhatsApp, whose built-in browsers cannot add apps to the home screen.
Tap Share. On iOS 26 the Share button sits inside the ••• menu next to the address bar.
Choose Add to Home Screen, and keep Open as Web App switched on.
Tap Add, then open Ktime from its new icon and sign in with your Ktime email (or username) and password.

Inside Ktime, the menu item Install the app shows these same steps in English or Persian, so you can follow them without leaving the page. Apple documents the same flow in its guide to turning a website into an app in Safari on iPhone.

Is there a Ktime app on the App Store?

No — Ktime is not on the App Store, and the home-screen app is the way to put it on an iPhone or iPad. Opened from its icon, Ktime runs full screen with no Safari address bar, uses the iPhone’s built-in video player for films and live TV, and always loads the current version, so there is nothing to update. It counts as one of the devices on your account like any other, and the same login works on the living-room TV and every other device.

What changed for iPhone and iPad in September 2026?

Several fixes on September 27, 2026 made Ktime on an iPhone or iPad noticeably more reliable. Some newly added films whose video was packaged in an unusual way had refused to start in the iPhone browser, with a “this title isn’t playing” message; they now play. Films in a 10-bit video format, which iPhones cannot decode, are now converted on the fly so they play too. On iPad in portrait, the search, notification and account buttons had slipped off the edge of the screen; the header now fits every iPad and even the smallest iPhone. The home-screen icon is now the proper Ktime icon, and text fields no longer zoom the page when you tap them.

Does it work on Android phones too?

Yes — Android phones and tablets install Ktime the same way from Chrome. Open ktime.app/app, tap Install the app in the Ktime menu, and Chrome shows its own install dialog; or use Chrome’s ⋮ menu and choose Install app (Google explains this in its help page on using web apps on Android). Android also has a native Ktime phone app, available from ktime.app/download, for anyone who prefers a downloaded app.

Yes, once. The home-screen app keeps its own sign-in, separate from Safari, so the first time you open it you sign in with your Ktime account. After that it remembers you, and your watch history, watchlist and Continue Watching row are the same on the iPhone, the TV and the computer.

Can I still use an IPTV app on my iPhone instead?

Yes — any Xtream-compatible IPTV player works with your Ktime login if you prefer a channel-grid layout. Install a free player such as GSE Smart IPTV from the App Store, add an Xtream Codes account, and enter Server ktime.app/iptv with your Ktime username and password. It reaches the same library, but most people find the home-screen app simpler, because it adds the Ktime home page, search, subtitles and Continue Watching.

Do I need a VPN or an Iranian card?

No — Ktime on an iPhone or iPad needs no VPN and no Iranian bank card. There is no geo-block, and the subscription takes any foreign card, so it works the same in Los Angeles, Toronto, Vancouver or London. Our guide to watching Persian TV outside Iran explains why a service built for the diaspora works abroad without workarounds.

What can I watch on Ktime on my iPhone?

The home-screen app carries the full Ktime library: new Iranian films such as Daneye Anjire Ma’abed (The Seed of the Sacred Fig, 2024), collections like Iranian films of 2024, international films and series with Persian subtitles or dubbing, and live Persian TV channels. Browse everything in the film catalog.

Watching on Ktime

On an iPhone or iPad, open ktime.app/app in Safari and add it to your home screen — about a minute, and it then behaves like any other app. On a Mac, Ktime for Mac is the native app; for the TV, the step-by-step setup page covers every device, including Roku. For relatives who would rather not set anything up, the pre-configured Ktime دستگاه sold at Iranian shops in the Greater Toronto Area comes ready to plug in. New to Ktime? Create an account and the same Persian library follows you to every screen.
