Mobile Live TV with Tzumi MagicTV
Tzumi MagicTV is a free app from Tzumi Electronics LLC designed for iPhone and iPad users who want to stream live digital television on the go. By pairing your iOS device with a compatible Tzumi receiver over Wi‑Fi, you can watch live broadcasts on your phone or tablet instead of a traditional television.
Main advantages
- Access live broadcast TV while you're away from your home set.
- Intuitive, touch-friendly controls for browsing channels and selecting programs.
- Smooth streaming when connected to the Tzumi receiver via a local Wi‑Fi link.
How to set it up
- Power on the Tzumi receiver and put it in Wi‑Fi sharing mode.
- Connect your iPhone or iPad to the receiver’s Wi‑Fi network.
- Launch the MagicTV app and choose the channel you want to watch.
Where this works best
Tzumi MagicTV is ideal for situations where you don’t have access to a conventional TV — for example, traveling, sitting outdoors, or waiting between appointments. Because the app relies on a direct Wi‑Fi link to the Tzumi device, reception depends on the receiver’s placement and signal conditions.
Device compatibility and limitations
- Compatible platforms: iPhone and iPad (iOS).
- Not available for non‑iOS devices; Android and other platforms are not supported.
- Requires a compatible Tzumi receiver and a local Wi‑Fi connection between the receiver and your iOS device.
Suggested alternative (free)
If you’re exploring other options, consider Delta Executor (free) as an alternative. It offers a different set of features and may be preferable depending on your receiver hardware and streaming needs.
