So I am planning on buying an ipad, never owned one before. I have always been an android guy and from what I have heard Ipad os or ios is pretty restrictive in nature so I was wondering how much does it hamper the piracy experience. For example on android I can torrent files of any nature or size without any restrictions and sideload the apk’s of paid apps to enjoy them for free, can I still do all this on an ipad or should I just drop the idea and get an android tablet instead ?

        No, you still need an external player. You can chose between VLC and Outplayer

        It’s really easy to set up tho. You just open web,stremio,com and then add it to your homescreen. Then you just log in as usual and chose your external player in the settings. There is some kind of notification in the beginning which you can just click to never show again and ignore. That’s all
