Most files that are not fansub releases carry no chapters, so they had no skip button. AniSkip knows where an episode's opening and ending are, by MyAnimeList id and episode number. ani.zip sends each entry's MyAnimeList id and enrichment now keeps it on every episode row; schema v14 adds the column and marks AniList titles un-enriched, deleting nothing, as v13 did. When a file has loaded with no chapter naming an opening or ending, and its length is known, each client asks once, with enrichment on only. The answer lives as long as the file is open. with_skip_ranges cuts it into the chapters as chapters named Opening and Ending, so the skip button, auto-skip, the up-next countdown and the seek bar's marks all work through the code a chaptered file uses. A file's own opening or ending always wins over AniSkip's. PRIVACY.md lists what is sent: the MyAnimeList id, the episode number and the file's length.

Android and iOS
The Android and iOS apps share the desktop app's engine, so a library, its watch history and its settings behave the same everywhere. This page covers what is different on a phone, a tablet and a TV. Installation explains how to install each one.

Adding a share
Tap Add share on the Shares tab, paste the link, and add a custom password if the link has one. The app checks the link before it saves it.
- Android: you can also share a link to the app from your browser or a chat app, or open a
drive.proton.me/urls/…link directly if you allow the app to open supported links in the system settings. - iOS: there is no share sheet. Copy the link, then tap Paste link in the dialog.
Folders of your own Drive work as on the desktop: sign in on the Shares tab, then Add from your Drive. See Account and sync.
The player
- Tap to show or hide the controls.
- Double-tap the left or right third of the screen to go back or forward 10 seconds. Double-tap the middle to pause.
- The menu has Episodes, Chapters, Playback speed, the audio and subtitle tracks, and Lock to landscape.
- Skip opening and Skip ending work as on the desktop, AniSkip included: see The player.
- Sound keeps playing with the screen off or the app in the background, with controls on the lock screen. Turn off Background audio in Settings to stop that.
Picture-in-Picture is not available on either platform.
Android TV
The app appears in the TV launcher. With the controls hidden:
| Remote | Does |
|---|---|
| Left / right | Back or forward 10 seconds |
| Centre, up or down | Show the controls |
| Play/pause | Pause and play |
There is no separate TV layout yet, and the app has not been tested on a real TV. Reports are welcome.
Downloads
Download an episode, a season or a show from its title page, and play it from the Downloads tab without a connection.
- Android waits for Wi-Fi unless you turn off Download on Wi-Fi only. Downloads continue with the app closed.
- iOS downloads only while the app is open, and for the short time iOS allows after you leave it. A stopped download resumes where it stopped.
Delete all offline episodes in Settings frees the space in one step.
New episodes
When a share gains episodes of a show, the app sends a notification.
- Android checks about every 6 hours, when the device has a network and the battery is not low. Turn it off with New episode notifications in Settings.
- iOS asks the system to check every 6 hours or so; iOS decides when it actually runs.
Where your secrets are kept
- Android: in the app's private storage, encrypted with a key in the Android Keystore. If you change or remove the device's screen lock, Android may delete that key. The app then asks you to Re-enter link for each share.
- iOS: in the Keychain, only on this device, and not in backups.
Requirements
- Android 12 or newer, on an arm64 or x86_64 device. 32-bit devices are not supported.
- iOS 17 or newer, on iPhone or iPad.
