About Movist Pro

Movist Pro is a media player for the Mac that sells itself on features missing from the free options. It plays a wide range of formats with hardware decoding, supports HDR content, offers detailed subtitle controls such as dual subtitles and styling, and can send video to an Apple TV or smart TV through AirPlay, converting incompatible videos on the fly. It can continue playback on the big screen with a click, and it supports macOS features such as Picture in Picture. Movist Pro is sold directly by its developer as a paid app, separate from the older App Store edition, and App Store buyers can upgrade at a discount. It runs on macOS only. It suits Mac users who want a supported commercial player with AirPlay output.

Best for: Mac users who want a paid, supported player with AirPlay output and rich subtitle tools.
