Romanian television abroad lets you watch programmes from home over the internet, on your television or phone, without installing a satellite dish. Vox Max brings live TV channels, Playback for up to 7 days, films and series together in its dedicated app, with delivery based on P2P technology.
Whether you live in the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain or another country, the practical benefit is staying connected to Romanian programmes while choosing when and on which screen to watch them.
What does Vox Max include?
One subscription gives you access to the service's features, with plans covering different subscription lengths. The main benefits are:
- Up to 400 TV channels, as listed in the offer on the website.
- Playback for up to 7 days, for programmes recorded and available in the archive.
- A library of thousands of films and series, accessible in the same app.
- Up to 5 devices at the same time, including from different locations.
- Dedicated Android TV and Android mobile apps, adapted to each type of screen.
- P2P technology, which allows participating devices to contribute to content delivery.
- A free 24-hour trial for new users, so you can test the experience on your own equipment.
Check the current channel line-up and available titles in the app. This lets you assess the service around the programmes you actually want to watch and the way you intend to use it.
Live Romanian channels without a satellite dish
Internet access removes the need for a satellite dish and satellite reception equipment. You need a compatible device, an internet connection and your Vox Max account.
Live television is useful when you want to watch a programme as it is broadcast. For Romanians living abroad, it provides access to Romanian content from their current home through the official app.
If you already own a Samsung or LG television, a compatible Android TV device connected by HDMI lets you use the app on that screen. The device you choose matters more than whether the television is simply described as "smart".
Playback: programmes from home at a time that suits you
Time differences and working hours can make it difficult to watch a programme live. Playback for up to 7 days lets you return to programmes available in the archive.
For example, if a programme starts while you are still at work, you can look for it in the app later. Select the available recording and watch when you have time.
The archive contains recordings made by the service. A programme that was not recorded cannot be recovered simply because it was broadcast within the previous seven days.
Films and series in the same app
Vox Max also includes a library of films and series, separate from live broadcasts and the TV archive. You can move from a channel to a film or an episode without changing apps.
Where the content offers these options, you can select subtitles and an audio track. Available languages vary between titles; the app uses the options included with the selected film or episode.
For everyday viewing, the benefit is convenience: live television when you want the current programme, and on-demand content when you prefer to choose what to watch.
Why does Vox Max use P2P technology?
P2P stands for Peer-to-Peer, meaning distribution between participants in a network. Video is delivered in small segments, and participating devices can receive and pass on the segments needed for playback.
In a model that relies entirely on delivery from the provider to each viewer, a larger audience adds demand to the delivery infrastructure. P2P can also use participants' resources to help distribute the content.
The potential benefits include:
- More efficient use of resources, with devices contributing to data delivery.
- Receiving segments from several available sources, depending on the implementation and network.
- Supporting a larger audience through shared delivery capacity, where participants have suitable connections.
The app manages this process. You select the channel or title you want, without manually configuring how the segments are exchanged.
P2P can help maintain playback continuity, but the experience also depends on the broadcast source, connection and device. Both download and upload capacity matter. Read more in our guide to the benefits and differences between P2P and traditional IPTV.
P2P and streaming privacy
Privacy should be assessed separately from playback performance. P2P describes the delivery method; the protection of data and connections depends on the specific safeguards implemented by the service. P2P technology alone does not guarantee anonymity.
When using Vox Max, use the official app, download updates from the sources identified on the website and keep your sign-in details private. Do not enter your account details into third-party apps that are not intended for the service.
Information about personal data processing is provided in the Vox Max terms and privacy policy. For questions about the protection of streaming connections, you can ask the team for information specific to the implementation in use.
This distinction helps you make an informed choice: efficient delivery and privacy are both important, each relying on its own mechanisms.
On your television and phone, with the right app
For the big screen, Vox Max provides an app for compatible Android TV and Google TV devices. Devices recommended on the website include Nvidia Shield and Xiaomi Mi Box. Follow our Vox Max installation guide for Android TV.
For your phone, there is a dedicated Android mobile app. Its interface is adapted to touchscreen use and includes an electronic programme guide, Playback, portrait and landscape viewing, and casting to compatible Android TV devices. See our guide to the Vox Max Android mobile app.

Up to 5 devices at the same time
One Vox Max account can be used on up to 5 devices simultaneously, including from different locations and through different internet providers.
