Why 500channels

Television, stripped of friction.

Built for lean-back watching without the passwords, paywalls and pop-ups that ruin streaming. Open it and something good is already on.

⚡

Zero signup. Actually zero.

No email to verify, no OTP to wait for, no password to forget and no card on file. 500channels doesn't even have an account system. Tap the icon and you're watching.

👆

Surf like reels

Swipe up for the next channel, down for the last one. Full screen, instant, and strangely addictive.

📺

Live from the first second

The Home screen plays a muted live preview the moment you open the app. Tap once to watch with sound.

🔢

Numbered like real TV

Every channel has a dial number from 101 to 904. Open the TV Guide, type a number and you're there.

🩺

Dead channels skipped

We check streams in the background, switch to a backup feed when one exists and hide channels that are off air.

🗣️

Your language first

Filter by 14 languages, shown in their own scripts: हिन्दी, தமிழ், తెలుగు, বাংলা and more.
