Welcome to Stremio — Your Modular Streaming Hub for 2025
Stremio is the ultimate cross-platform streaming media hub designed to bring all your favorite video entertainment together. Access movies, TV series, live channels, podcasts, and more — all neatly organized in one place with support for HD and 4K resolutions. Whether you prefer official sources or community-driven add-ons, Stremio empowers you to choose how and where you stream.
What is Stremio? ✨
Stremio is a smart modular streaming platform that consolidates video content from multiple sources into a single, clean interface. It supports streaming movies, TV shows, live TV, YouTube videos, and even torrent-based sources via add-ons. With apps available for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, and smart TVs, Stremio offers unparalleled cross-device flexibility.
Unlike traditional streaming services that lock you into a single catalog, Stremio’s innovative add-on system lets you tailor your viewing experience by selecting exactly the content sources you trust or prefer. This modular approach means new content and services keep arriving as the community creates and updates add-ons.
The platform is designed to be easy for beginners but powerful enough for advanced users, featuring calendar integration, syncing across devices, VR-ready playback, and a focus on user privacy.

Is Stremio Safe and Legal? ✨
Stremio itself is a safe and legal platform. Importantly, it does not host any content — it organizes streaming links provided by add-ons you choose to install. Many add-ons pull from open or public sources, which is legal.
Some torrent-based add-ons may provide access to copyrighted content, which could be illegal depending on your jurisdiction. It’s your responsibility to comply with local laws when using these services.
For privacy and security, Stremio offers a guest mode with minimal tracking and recommends the use of VPNs to protect your online activities when streaming.
