How do I log in to IPTV Smarters Pro?

Open the app, choose "Login with Xtream Codes API", then enter any name you like, your username, your password and the server URL from your IPTV provider's welcome email. Tap "Add User" and your channels, movies and series load within a minute.

Is IPTV Smarters Pro free?

Yes. The app itself is free to download. It's only a player: you also need a subscription from an IPTV provider, which gives you the login details to enter in the app.

Do I need an EPG URL in IPTV Smarters Pro?

Not if you log in with Xtream Codes. The TV guide comes with your login and loads automatically. You only need to add an EPG URL separately if you log in with an M3U playlist link and your provider gives you one.

Why does IPTV Smarters Pro say invalid username or password?

Check for a space before or after the details (common when copying from an email), make sure the server URL includes http:// and any port number exactly as given, and confirm your subscription is active. If it still fails, send your provider a screenshot of the error.

Can I use IPTV Smarters Pro on more than one device?

Yes, you can install it and log in on as many devices as you like. How many can play at the same time depends on the number of connections in your subscription.

IPTV Smarters Pro Setup Guide: Install and Log In on Any Device (2026)

IPTV Smarters Pro is a free player app that most IPTV services, including ours, recommend for getting started. You install it, enter the login details from your subscription, and it loads your live channels, movies, series and TV guide in one place.

This guide covers installing it on each device, logging in, and fixing the errors people most often run into.

What You Need Before You Start

Your IPTV login details. For an Xtream Codes login that's a username, a password and a server URL. Your provider sends these by email after you pay.
A supported device: Firestick, Android TV box, Android phone or tablet, iPhone, iPad, Samsung or LG Smart TV, Windows or Mac.
About 10 minutes.

IPTV Smarters Pro doesn't include any channels by itself. It's a player, like a video app that needs something to play.

Step 1: Install the App

Firestick and Fire TV

IPTV Smarters Pro isn't in the Amazon Appstore, so you install it with the free Downloader app:

From the Fire TV home screen, search for Downloader and install it.
Go to Settings → My Fire TV → Developer Options and allow Install unknown apps for Downloader. (If you don't see Developer Options, go to Settings → My Fire TV → About and click on the device name 7 times to unlock it.)
Open Downloader and enter the download address listed on the official IPTV Smarters website.
Install the file when it finishes downloading, then open the app.

Our Firestick setup guide shows each screen if you get stuck.

Android TV, Android phones and tablets

Search for IPTV Smarters Pro in the Google Play Store and install it. Android TV boxes without the Play Store can use the Downloader method above.

iPhone and iPad

Search for IPTV Smarters in the App Store. The listing name changes from time to time, so if the exact name doesn't appear, check the developer's official website for the current App Store link.

Samsung and LG Smart TVs

Check your TV's app store for IPTV Smarters. Availability depends on the TV model and country. If it isn't there, the simplest fix is a Firestick or Android TV box plugged into the TV's HDMI port. You can also use another player app that your TV does offer with an M3U link (see step 2).

Windows and Mac

Download the desktop version from the official IPTV Smarters website and install it like any other program.

Step 2: Log In With Your Subscription

When you open the app for the first time you'll see a few login options. Pick the one that matches what your provider sent you.

Option A: Xtream Codes API (recommended)

Tap Login with Xtream Codes API.
Any name: type anything, for example "Living room".
Username and Password: copy them exactly from your welcome email.
URL: the server address from your email, including http:// and the port number if there is one (for example http://example.com:8080).
Tap Add User.

Your live TV, movies, series and TV guide download automatically. This usually takes under a minute.

Option B: M3U playlist link

Some apps and Smart TVs only accept a playlist link. In Smarters, choose Load Your Playlist or File/URL, give it a name, select M3U URL and paste the link. With this method the TV guide may need its own EPG link, which your provider can send. If you're an IPTVWatchHub customer, ask us for an M3U link and we'll send it.

Step 3: Get Comfortable With the App

Live TV: channels are grouped into categories by country and type. Pick a category, then a channel.
TV guide (EPG): open it from the Live TV section to see what's on now and next.
Movies and Series: browse or search the on-demand library.
Favourites: long-press (or hold OK on the remote) on a channel to add it to Favourites, so you don't have to scroll through thousands of channels.
Multiple profiles: you can add more than one user, for example a separate login on the kids' TV.

Common Problems and How to Fix Them

"Invalid username or password" or "Authorization failed" Copying from an email often adds a space before or after the details. Type them in by hand, check capital letters, and make sure the URL matches the email exactly, port number included. If your subscription has just been renewed, close and reopen the app.

Channels load but the TV guide is empty Give it a few minutes after the first login, then go to Settings and refresh or reload the EPG. With an M3U login, check that you've added the EPG link.

A black screen or a channel won't play Try another channel. If most channels work, report the ones that don't to your provider. If none work, go to Settings → Player Selection and switch to a different player.

Buffering or freezing Our guide on how to fix IPTV buffering covers the connection, device and app settings step by step.

The app closes or freezes on Firestick Clear the app's cache in Settings → Applications → Manage Installed Applications, force-stop other apps, and restart the Firestick.

IPTV Smarters Pro or TiviMate?

Both work well. Smarters is free on more devices, including iPhone and Smart TVs, and is the easiest to start with. TiviMate is Android-only and needs a paid upgrade for some features, but many people prefer its TV-guide layout on a big screen. Our TiviMate vs IPTV Smarters Pro comparison goes through the differences.

IPTVWatchHub plans start at $5 a month on the 12-month plan, with your login details sent by email within 15 minutes of payment. Every plan works with IPTV Smarters Pro, and we can help you set it up by email or WhatsApp. See plans and prices.
