Is UHF free? UHF Pro vs the free app
Short answer: yes, the UHF app is free. UHF Pro is an optional upgrade from the developer (about $2.99 a month or $17.99 a year) for comfort features like sync and no watermark. Neither one includes channels: those come from an IPTV subscription such as UHF IPTV.

What you actually need to watch TV in UHF
Two things: the app (free) and a playlist. A UHF IPTV subscription gives UHF 40,000+ live channels, a matched TV guide and 100,000+ movies and series, and it works in the free version. Many people start with free UHF plus our free 24-hour trial, then decide about Pro later.
Is UHF Pro worth it?
- Worth it if you watch on several Apple devices and want favourites and progress synced, or if the watermark bothers you.
- Not needed if you watch on one Apple TV: the free app already plays the full channel list and guide.
