FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before you start streaming with Stremio.

What is Stremio?

Stremio is a free streaming application that lets you watch movies, TV shows, live channels, and more from a single interface. It runs on virtually every device you own — Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, Smart TV, Fire TV, iPhone, and even in a web browser. Your entire watch history and settings stay perfectly in sync across all your devices.

Is Stremio free?

Yes, Stremio is 100% free. There is no subscription, no premium tier, and no credit card required. The app itself is completely free to download and use on all platforms. Some optional addons may direct you to external services that have their own costs (like debrid providers), but Stremio itself is always free.

Is Stremio legal?

The Stremio application itself is completely legal and open source. The legality of content depends on the addons you install and the copyright laws of your country. Stremio is simply a media player that aggregates streams from various sources through its addon system.

Do I need a debrid service?

It is not required, but highly recommended. A debrid service (like Real-Debrid, AllDebrid, or TorBox) acts as a proxy that lets you stream cached torrent content at full speed — including 4K — with no buffering. Prices start at around $3 per month. If your country monitors torrent traffic, a debrid service also keeps your activity private. See our Addons Guide for full details.

Do I need to set up addons on every device?

No. Stremio is cloud-based. Once you set up your addons, library, and preferences on one device, everything syncs automatically to all your other devices. Just install the app and log in with your account.

Is Stremio available for iPhone?

Yes! As of August 2025, Stremio released a native iOS app available in the App Store. You can also use the full web client at web.stremio.com with an external player. Both options work best with a debrid service. Check our iOS Install Guide for step-by-step instructions.

How do I install Stremio on a Smart TV?

It depends on your TV type. Android TV and Fire TV devices can sideload the APK using the Downloader app. Samsung TVs (2019+) and LG TVs (2020+) have native Stremio apps in their app stores. Check our detailed TV Installation Guide for step-by-step instructions for each device type.

Can I watch 4K content on Stremio?

Yes. Stremio's built-in player supports 4K HDR, Dolby Vision, and virtually every modern video format. For the best 4K experience without buffering, a debrid service is strongly recommended as it delivers content from high-speed cached servers.
