IPTV Smarters Pro Setup: Firestick, Android, iPhone & TV
⚡ Quick Answer
Step-by-step instructions for adding your IPTV login to IPTV Smarters Pro on the devices UK customers use most, plus fixes for the common errors.
Before you start
You need the login details from your welcome message: a username, a password and a server URL. If you do not have them yet, request a free 6-hour trial.
Install the app
- Android phone, tablet or Android TV: search "IPTV Smarters Pro" in the Google Play Store.
- iPhone, iPad or Apple TV: search "Smarters Player Lite" in the App Store.
- Fire TV Stick: install the free Downloader app from the Amazon Appstore and use the download link in your welcome message. Our Firestick guide covers turning on "Apps from Unknown Sources".
- Samsung or LG TV: availability varies by model — see our Smart TV guide.
Log in
- Open the app and accept the terms.
- Choose Login with Xtream Codes API. This is the easiest option and brings in the TV guide automatically.
- Enter any name you like, then your username, password and server URL exactly as sent — including
http://and the port number if there is one. - Press Add User. The app will load channels, films and series.
Load the TV guide
From the home screen choose Install EPG (or open Settings > EPG) and refresh. It can take a minute the first time.
Common problems
- "Invalid login": check for a space at the end of the username or password, and that the URL is exactly right.
- Empty TV guide: refresh the EPG and check the device's time zone is set to the UK.
- Buffering: work through our buffering fixes.

Using IPTV Smarters well
Favourites
Long-press a channel (or press the menu button on a remote) and choose Add to Favourites. Build a short list of the channels you actually watch so you are not scrolling through thousands every evening.
Catch-up
Channels with catch-up show a small clock or "archive" icon. Open the channel's guide, go back to the programme you missed and press play.
Multi-screen
Smarters can show up to four channels on one screen on some devices — useful on busy football afternoons. Each stream counts as a connection, so a 1-connection plan only plays one at a time.
Parental controls
In Settings, set a PIN and choose which categories it locks. Useful if children use the same device.
Smarters on different devices
- Fire TV Stick: install with Downloader; use the remote's menu button for options.
- Android TV: install from Google Play; works well with a remote.
- iPhone and iPad: Smarters Player Lite from the App Store; supports AirPlay to the TV.
- Windows: a desktop version is available — see IPTV on PC.
Smarters vs other players
Smarters is the best choice if you want the same app on every device. TiviMate has a better TV-guide grid on Android, and our own app needs no login details at all. See the IPTV players compared.
