Philo

philo.com·Video streaming & playback·🇺🇸

Philo is a live TV streaming service that provides access to over 70 live channels and more than 75,000 on-demand movies and shows. It is designed for viewers seeking an alternative to traditional cable, offering a flexible, contract-free experience with features such as unlimited cloud DVR for up to one year. Philo aims to deliver a broad selection of entertainment at a competitive price point, starting at $25 per month.

The platform offers two main subscription plans: the Essential plan, which includes 70+ live channels and a large on-demand library, and the Bundle+ plan, which expands the on-demand selection and adds access to streaming services like HBO Max Basic with Ads, AMC+, and discovery+. Both plans allow streaming on up to three devices simultaneously, the creation of up to ten user profiles, and the ability to cancel at any time. New users can try the Essential plan with a seven-day free trial, and there is also a Free Channels option that does not require a credit card, allowing users to sample select content before subscribing.

Philo’s unlimited DVR feature lets users record live or upcoming shows and movies, with recordings stored in the cloud for up to a year for subscribers and up to 30 days for users of the Free Channels tier. The service does not require any additional hardware or equipment, as DVR functionality is integrated directly into the app. Add-on packages are available for an extra monthly fee, including premium networks such as HBO Max Standard, Movies & More, AMC+, MGM+, ALLBLK, Hallmark+, and STARZ, with several offering ad-free viewing.

Philo can be accessed on a wide range of devices, including web browsers, iPhone and iPad, Android phones and tablets, Roku, Fire TV, Samsung TV, VIZIO TV, LG TV, Apple TV, Android TV, and Chromecast via Android. Use of the service requires a broadband internet connection and a supported device. The platform is positioned as a cost-effective way to stream live and on-demand television, emphasizing convenience, flexibility, and a broad content selection without the need for contracts or cable boxes.
