A simple, cross platform media player.

We're on a mission: to make media playback accessible on every device, anywhere, anytime.

From WEBM and MKV all the way to HLS and MPEG-DASH, we support the most popular formats on every platform, and with our addon system, you can personalize the way you play media.

We’re available on Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, the web, and as a Chrome extension.

Note: If the app doesn’t run, try snap run simpliplay in your terminal instead of opening it through the App Center or your desktop.

Graphics Note: On certain arm64 devices, the app may fail to launch due to a graphics backend related error. Switching to X11 if you are on Wayland should fix this.
