The Story
Born from watching movies in bed
It all started with a simple frustration: watching a movie from bed, but having to get up every time something needed adjusting. No TV subscription — just a laptop connected to the TV and free streaming sites.
Every existing app was either cumbersome to configure, ugly, or both. So Laze was built: a clean, modern, simple UI where you can open Firefox on your favourite movie site with 1 swipe and 1 click.
The ultimate lazy solution for the ultimate lazy lifestyle. 🛋️
