Terms of Service
Last updated October 31, 2026
In short: Mac TV is free and open source under the MIT License, and comes with no warranty. Bring your own streaming subscriptions, follow each service's rules, and only watch what you have the right to watch.
Agreement
By downloading or using Mac TV ("the app"), made by Arunprakaash, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.
License
Mac TV is free, open-source software under the MIT License. You may use, copy, change and share it under that license. If these terms and the license ever disagree about the software itself, the license applies.
Streaming services and content
- Mac TV shows streaming services' own websites. It doesn't provide, host or sell any content.
- You need your own accounts and subscriptions, and you must follow each service's terms, including any limits on devices or regions.
- Mac TV doesn't bypass DRM, region limits or paywalls, and doesn't download or record content.
- Use Mac TV only with content you have the right to watch.
Trademarks
Mac TV isn't affiliated with or endorsed by Apple, Netflix, Google, Amazon, JioStar or Spotify. Their names, logos and app icons belong to them and are used only to identify their services. "Mac" is a trademark of Apple Inc.
Using it safely
- Lid closed: a closed Mac that stays awake runs warmer and uses battery. Keep it somewhere ventilated, never in a bag. Mac TV turns this option off on low battery or when the Mac gets hot, but you're responsible for how you use it.
- Phone remote: anyone with your pairing code on your network can control Mac TV. Keep the code to people you trust.
No warranty
Mac TV is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind, as the MIT License says. Streaming services can change their websites at any time, and some features may stop working until the app is updated.
Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, Arunprakaash isn't liable for any damages arising from using or being unable to use Mac TV, including lost data, interrupted playback, or effects on your Mac or accounts.
Changes
These terms may be updated. The new version will be posted here with a new date, and earlier versions stay visible in the project's history on GitHub. Continuing to use the app means you accept the updated terms.
