Two ways to get it

How to get Premium

As a subscription through Google Play, or with a single payment via direct purchase — your choice, it's the same Premium.

What Premium unlocks

Four unlocked features

Most IPTV playlists arrive with a skeletal guide. Premium turns that partial guide into a real schedule, lets you rewind — and adds subtitles to your movies when the stream has none.

Full 7-day TV guide

On the free plan, the guide is limited to what's on around now. Premium extends the schedule to a full 7 days, pooled and completed by the community when your provider has no EPG — to plan your evenings, spot repeats and never hit an empty grid again.

7 daysNo gapsEnriched guide

Multi-day catch-up / replay

Missed a show yesterday or the day before? With Premium, the timeline panel goes back several days of programmes that already aired (depending on what your provider offers) and replays them in one click, resuming where you left off.

Several daysResume1 click

Cross-channel replay search

Search for a film, show or match across the history of all your channels at once, without browsing them one by one. The result takes you straight to the right programme to replay.

Online subtitles

No subtitles on your film or episode? Premium searches for and downloads them (OpenSubtitles) right inside the player, in the language you want, with fine offset adjustment to line them up perfectly.

Premium questions

Good to know

Do I have to pay to use Chaipa?
No. Chaipa is free: live TV, movies, series, search, favourites and the now/next guide. Premium is entirely optional.
Does the trial need a card?
No. The 30-day trial starts automatically, no card and no commitment. At the end, you return to the free version if you don't subscribe.
Is the guide always complete in Premium?
Premium unlocks the 7-day depth and multi-day replay. Actual coverage depends on your provider's and the community's data; Chaipa automatically fills poorly covered channels where possible.
What if my provider has no catch-up?
Replay relies on what your provider makes available. The full 7-day guide and replay search are still useful even when video catch-up isn't offered by every channel.
How do I cancel?
From your Google Play account, under Subscriptions, anytime. You keep Premium until the end of the current period.
