  1. 01

    Download a Recommended IPTV Player

    Go to the Google Play Store and search for an IPTV player. On an Android TV box, TiviMate is designed for the TV screen and is not optimized for touch devices. On a phone or tablet, use a touch-friendly player such as IPTV Smarters Pro. Several apps have similar names, so check the developer before installing, or ask us on WhatsApp which listing to use.

    Tap the 'Install' button and wait for the app to download and install on your Android phone, tablet, or TV box.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between an M3U link and the Xtream Codes API?

An Xtream Codes login uses a username, password and server URL, and player apps can use it to load your channels, TV guide (EPG) and logos. An M3U link is a single file URL that can have issues with guide data.

Can I use a different IPTV player on Android?

Yes, you can try another player that accepts an Xtream Codes login or M3U link. TV guide (EPG) features vary from app to app.
