Overview
What is Anilili?
Anilili is an anime streaming and downloading app for Android. It is built for people who just want to find a show and press play, without juggling browser tabs or paying for another subscription.
The app brings discovery, streaming, downloads, list management and progress sync together in one interface that adapts to the screen you are on. It is written with Jetpack Compose and uses the native Media3 player, so playback feels like part of the system rather than a web page wrapped in an app shell.
You can stream episodes over the internet or save them ahead of time and watch on a flight, a commute or anywhere the signal drops out. New to the project? Start with the features guide, then head to the download page.
Why people use it
Three things Anilili gets right
Your anime, in sync
Sign in with AniList or MyAnimeList, update your list straight from the player, resume episodes where you left off, and optionally push watched progress back to your account.
Built for the couch
Large-screen layouts, D-pad navigation, visible focus states, TV-safe spacing and a player control bar that was designed around a remote rather than a touchscreen.
Highlights
What you actually get
A quick tour of the parts that matter. The full features guide goes deeper on each one.

Streaming providers
Where episodes come from
Anilili does not host any video. It resolves streams from public third-party providers and plays whichever one responds. Titles can appear from Miruro, Senshi, AniBD, AniKoto, KickAssAnime, AllAnime, AnimeKai, ReAnime, AniZone, AnimeGG, AniNeko, 2DHive, RareAnimes and other compatible sources.
Availability changes. A show might be on four providers in sub only, two in dub, and none in your region for a week until a mirror comes back. That is why the app checks several sources and lets you reorder them. See the troubleshooting guide if a title will not load.

- Senshi
- AniBD
- AniKoto
