Reel + loft · your own little screening room

Your movies. Every screen in the house. Nothing in the cloud.

Point it at a folder, scan the code, send it to the TV.

No account. Your files never leave your Wi‑Fi.Try it on your own TV first: every cast plays 5 minutes free.
How it works

One app. Three screens.

You install one app, on the computer that holds your videos. The phone and the TV need nothing at all.

The Reelloft desktop library: search, filters and a poster wall of titles from your folder.
01

Point at a folder

Drag in the folder where your videos already live. Reelloft scans it and builds a poster wall — series grouped automatically.

The Reelloft desktop app with the Watch on your phone dialog open: a QR code and the library address on your Wi‑Fi.
02

Scan the QR code

Your phone's camera opens your whole library in the browser. Nothing to install on the phone — it's just a web page on your Wi‑Fi.

The phone remote while casting to Living Room TV: pause, skip, switch device, stop casting.
03

Cast to any screen

Tap to play on your phone, or send it to the TV — DLNA, Chromecast, and AirPlay. The TV streams straight from your computer.

Features

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Zero-config library

Drop a folder, get a poster wall with search, tags, and automatic series detection. No "add library" ritual.

Watch on your phone

Scan a QR code — your library opens in the browser. No app to install, no login. Just your files on your Wi‑Fi.

Cast to your TV

One tap to DLNA smart TVs, Chromecast, and Apple TV. The TV pulls the stream directly from your computer.

DLNACHROMECASTAIRPLAY

Most files just play

MP4/H.264 plays directly on your phone and TV. Most other files are converted on the fly, with hardware acceleration.

MP4MKVHEVC

Never, by architecture

No account, no telemetry, no media cloud. Your library and viewing activity stay on your machine and local network.

Buy once, keep it

A single $15 purchase. No subscription, no upsells, no shrinking free tier. Updates for the current major version are included.

Privacy

Nothing leaves. That's the whole design.

Three ways to check that before you download anything.

Your files stay in your folders.

Reelloft reads the folder you point it at and streams from there to your phone and TV over your own Wi‑Fi. Nothing is uploaded, and no copy is made anywhere else.

No server to leak from.

There is no back end to break into. No account, no sign-in, no database of yours on any server we run — the $15 license verifies offline, on your own computer. Nobody can read your library, including us.

Your videos stay yours to take.

They are plain files in your own folders, named the way you named them. Uninstalling deletes the index. Nothing is synced, backed up, or mirrored anywhere — including to us.

Honestly

Where Reelloft fits

Reelloft is for watching a folder without running a media server. Plex and Jellyfin offer more when you want remote access and server administration.
