FAQ
Is it really free?
Yes. PlayAnyVideo has no ads, no paid codecs and no locked features.
Is my Play HEVC without buying the HEVC extension file uploaded anywhere?
No. Playback happens on your own device; local files are never sent to a server.
Do I need a codec pack?
No. Codec packs can break other players and often bundle adware. PlayAnyVideo brings its own decoders.
