About

Step into immersive video.

MVPlayer is the focused, native player for stereoscopic 3D, 180° and 360° video, and the immersive video format, on every Apple device you own. One free download covers iPhone, iPhone Duo, iPad, Mac and Apple Vision Pro.

One player. Every immersive format.

  • Stereoscopic 3D: MV-HEVC with proper projection and depth, natively on Apple Vision Pro.
  • 180° and 360° video: equirectangular and half-sphere, in flat 2D (HEVC) or stereoscopic 3D (MV-HEVC).
  • The immersive video format: native playback, no conversion required.
  • Files, library or URL: open from Files, the Photos library, or any HTTP/HLS streaming URL. On the Mac, drop a video on the window.

A player that gets out of the way.

A modern translucent design: close and volume at the top, play controls in the middle, the timeline below. AirPlay and Picture in Picture are one tap away. On iPhone, iPad and Mac, drag to look around a 180° or 360° video.

Made for iPhone Duo.

  • Fold it like a laptop: the picture stays upright and the controls move to the half lying flat, over a reflection of the video. The more you close it, the further the reflection reaches.
  • Hold it like a book: the video spans both pages, with a controller on each.
  • Close it: keep watching on the cover display.

Full Access, one optional purchase.

A password-locked kiosk mode keeps event and trade-show demos from being exited or tampered with, and a playful head-tracking experience on iPhone, iPad and Mac entertains attendees while they wait for the headset. Both can be tried free for 20 seconds; Full Access unlocks them once, with no subscription.
