Free streaming apps give you live broadcasts — but no way to keep them. CastDVR adds the one feature streaming forgot: a real DVR for Firestick, Stremio, Android TV, and the apps you already use.
You cut the cord. You loaded up Firestick and Stremio with free live channels. And then the moment you wanted to record the game, the season finale, or tonight's news for tomorrow morning — nothing.
CastDVR is the piece that completes the picture. A true cloud DVR that plugs into the apps you already use and saves whatever's on, so you can watch it on your schedule.
CastDVR runs in the cloud and connects to your existing streaming apps. There's no box to plug in, no antenna to mount, no firmware to update.
Add the CastDVR app to Firestick, Android TV, or load the Stremio add-on. Sign in — you're set up in under two minutes.
Tap record on anything live, or set a series to capture every episode automatically — even ones that haven't aired yet.
Recordings stream back instantly to any device you own. Pause, rewind, skip ahead — same as the cable box you cut years ago.
Everything you remember from a proper DVR — rebuilt for the way you actually watch now.
Hit record once on a program, episode, or whole series. CastDVR handles every airing from then on.
Hit pause on a live broadcast. Step out, come back, pick up exactly where you stopped — up to two hours of buffer.
Jump past ad breaks on playback. Optional, automatic, and trained on your favorite networks.
TV, phone, tablet, laptop. Pick up a recording on the bus and finish it on the couch.
Take recordings on the plane. Save them to your phone or tablet and watch with the WiFi off.
Your recordings are yours. Stored encrypted, never indexed, never shared, never advertised against.
Pay for the storage you actually use. No commitments, no hidden device fees, cancel any time.
Try the whole thing.
For serious cord-cutters.
One DVR, whole household.
Short answers. If you have a question that isn't here, send us a note.
No. CastDVR is a cloud service. You install our app on the streaming device you already own, sign in, and start recording. There's nothing to plug in and no antenna involved.
CastDVR works with the free live broadcast sources available on Firestick, Stremio, Android TV, and the major Stremio add-on catalogs. We're continuously expanding support — if there's a live source you watch, there's a good chance we already cover it.
In encrypted cloud storage, tied to your account only. You can also download recordings to any of your devices for offline viewing. We never index, share, or advertise against your recordings.
Yes. Free accounts can record two simultaneous broadcasts, Plus accounts up to six, and Family accounts up to twelve. Recordings happen in the cloud, so your local device doesn't have to stay on.
Built in. Every live channel has a rolling buffer of up to two hours, so you can pause a broadcast, rewind to catch a play you missed, or jump back to the start of a show that's already underway.
Never. Free is free forever. Paid plans are billed monthly and you can cancel at any time from your account page — no calls, no retention scripts, no fees.
Set up CastDVR in two minutes on the streaming device you already own. Free for 10 hours of recording — no card, no commitment.
