A home briefing
Every launch composes your selection: what to resume, what is coming out, what suits you tonight.
For iPhone, iPhone Duo and iPad · iOS 26
Your cinema,
beautifully orchestrated.
Ōwea brings your library, discoveries, upcoming releases and watch history into one calm, cinematic experience. And Apple Intelligence conducts it all.
- Native Apple, Liquid Glass
- Private by design
- Your sources, your rules
Everything is set for your showtime.
Apple Intelligence
A conductor,
not one more button.
In Ōwea, intelligence never hides behind a “Generate” button. It lives in the Magic Pill, on every screen, and tells you the right thing at the right moment.
Media detail
Moods, not filters
Calm Evening, Adrenaline, Popcorn Time, Late Night, Blockbuster… Pick a mood and Ōwea rearranges everything.
Search that understands
“A title, or a craving…” Describe what you want to feel, not just what you are looking for.
Synopses and trivia
Sharper summaries, behind-the-scenes trivia and spoiler-free “previously on” recaps.
The time you have
Suggestions that fit your evening, and the end time shown as soon as playback starts.
Dormant series
Ōwea spots the series you left halfway and invites you back at the right moment.
Apple Intelligence requires a compatible device with the feature enabled. Tone, verbosity and form of address can be adjusted in Ōwea.
The tour
Cinema first.
Interface second.
Artwork takes the stage. Controls stay close, readable and quiet. Keep scrolling.
Home
Your evening starts here.
A large hero to resume in one tap, your moods within thumb’s reach and “Continue watching” with time remaining. Home changes with the hour, the weather and your mood.
Discover
All of cinema, even without a server.
Trending films and series, genres, studios, services and ratings: a complete, living catalogue from the very first launch. A badge tells you at a glance what is ready to play or already requested.
Media detail
Every title has its own light.
The page takes on the colours of the artwork. Title logo, 4K, Dolby Vision and audio badges, illustrated episodes, trailers, extras and cast. The floating dock keeps “Play” under your thumb.
Playback
Press Play. That’s it.
Direct play first, resume to the second, preferred audio and subtitle languages, end time on screen. Download a title to watch offline, on the train or on a plane.
Requests
Missing a film? Request it.
Request a film or just the seasons you want, then follow it all the way: pending, approved, processing, available. When your services allow it, Ōwea even shows the download and time remaining.
Library
Your collection, finally done justice.
Your films and series as large posters, filtered by status, genre or studio, in a grid or a list. The Magic Pill tells you where you are.
Calendar
Never miss an episode again.
Film releases and new episodes on a clear timeline: today, tomorrow, the day after. Sort by service, genre or Ōwea order, which puts what matters to you first.
Stats
Your story, beautifully told.
Plays, hours watched, media types, viewing hours and weekly rhythm. Administrators also see live sessions, users, stream quality and server health.
iPhone Duo
Unfold the iPhone.
Unfold the cinema.
On iPhone Duo, Ōwea opens up: artwork and details side by side, a glass sidebar, dashboards with room to breathe. A real cinema that fits in your pocket.
Your sources
Start with nothing.
Connect what you love.
Ōwea is useful from the very first second, then grows with the services you already use.
