Stremio is an open-source content aggregator. It centralizes streaming metadata and multiple sources for a better tracking and viewing experience.
Stremio is focused on cross-platform streaming by aggregating information and sources into a single application that keeps track of watch history, in-progress shows/movies and content from multiple providers. Other features are available through the installation of third-party add-ons. Stremio displays information about movies and tv shows and where to watch them. Additionally, there is a dedicated section on the main page that contains live media and visual works in the public domain. Subtitles are generally available through OpenSubtitles. Stremio tracks when new episodes from a show are released and allows the user to catalogue their favorite shows and movies. Stremio code is archived as an ASAR file.
