What is Infuse?
Infuse is a video player built for the Apple ecosystem that plays more than 30 file formats, including MKV, ISO, and BDMV, natively without converting or transcoding. It automatically fetches metadata, artwork, cast info, and trailers for library items from local files, a NAS, or cloud storage, presenting everything with the polish of a commercial streaming app. Infuse connects to Plex, Emby, and Jellyfin media servers, streams from Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive, and delivers hardware-accelerated 4K HDR and Dolby Vision playback on Pro plans. Libraries and settings sync across iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Mac, and Vision Pro via iCloud, with no ads or tracking.
