Finally
TiViMate is one of the best developed IPTV front ends the market has seen in a long time. In our opinion, it’s the closest to the traditional cable/satellite interface the majority of the world has become used to in the past 20 years. This is just 10% of all of the TiViMate features. There are other features like catch-up that not all providers offer, but Freedom Stream does. Catch up allows you to go back into time and watch episodes of shows you may have missed. TiViMate supports this too.
