Estimated revenue

A model estimate with a likely range, not a reported figure.

No estimate. Apps outside the grossing charts, and some countries, have no reliable rank-to-revenue curve, so we show nothing rather than a guess.

How this estimate is made

Rank: we take the app's best Top Grossing rank on the latest chart day. Category ranks are converted into an equivalent overall rank, because a #10 in Finance earns far less than a #10 overall.

Curve: that equivalent rank is read off a rank-to-revenue curve anchored on public company revenue and market-data reports for the US iPhone App Store.

Country: the curve is scaled per country (Japan is roughly a third of the US, Türkiye under 1%). Where we have no scale, such as China, there is no estimate.

Range: the likely range widens with country, category and chart depth. It is a plausible span, not a statistical confidence interval.

Not included: ads, payments outside the App Store, and any difference between gross sales and what the developer keeps. Low confidence means indirect data; medium means several independent sources agree.

About this app

Text from the App Store listing.

CarTV is a lightweight M3U / M3U8 playlist tool, built for watching on the road.

SCREEN MIRRORING

  • Put your whole iPhone screen on the car display: works with any app, even ones without a Cast button
  • Open any app and it shows up on the car screen exactly as on your phone
  • One tap on the Cast to Car tab to start

WHAT IT DOES
All you need is an M3U or M3U8 link. CarTV parses it, sorts the entries into the groups defined in your playlist, and plays them. No account, no sign-in, nothing to configure.

FORMATS AND PLAYBACK

  • M3U and M3U8 playlists
  • HLS and standard HTTP streams
  • Hardware-accelerated decoding, with a software decoder as fallback for MKV, HEVC and DTS
  • Embedded and external subtitles, including tracks extracted from MKV
  • Reads tvg-logo and group-title tags from your playlist
  • Remembers where you left off

YOUR OWN MEDIA SERVER

  • Connect to your own Jellyfin or Emby server
  • Browse your libraries, seasons and episodes
  • Episodes are sorted automatically and resume where you stopped
  • Server addresses and credentials never leave your device

CAR MODE
A landscape layout made for a phone in a dashboard mount: oversized controls, large type, and one-tap switching between entries. Built for passengers.
Note: for passenger use only. Never watch while driving.

MOMENTS WORTH STOPPING FOR
Park by the lake on a quiet weekend, set up your fishing rod, and finally watch that old movie you've been saving. At the campsite, stay curled up with your partner after sunset while you wait for the stars. During a forty-minute charging stop, watch two cartoons with the kids or catch up on that movie you and your friends have talked about for ages. When the car is parked and the big display lights up, an ordinary wait becomes time worth remembering.

MANAGE YOUR PLAYLISTS

  • Add as many playlist URLs as you need, by link or by scanning a QR code
  • Refresh, rename, or remove any of them
  • Filter by the groups in your playlist
  • Mark favourites for quick access
  • Import video files from your device and play them offline

MINI PLAYER
Keep playing while you browse the rest of your list. No need to back out and start over.

PRIVACY
Everything you add stays on your iPhone. No account needed.

CarTV is a player only. It does not provide, host, bundle, or recommend any content. You supply your own playlists and servers and are responsible for having the right to use them.
