Before you start
- An Android phone or tablet on Android 8 or newer
- Wi-Fi for the first load
- Your IPTV Extreme login
Step by step
Install a player from Google Play
Open Google Play and search for IPTV Smarters Pro. It is the one we recommend for phones because the layout fits small screens well. IPTV Extreme Pro also works great if you prefer it.
Sign in with the details we send you
Right after you order, we message you on WhatsApp with three things: a username, a password and a server URL. Pick "Login with Xtream Codes API" (sometimes just called "Xtream Codes") and type them in exactly as written.
- Any name works in the "Playlist name" box. Most people type "IPTV Extreme".
- The server URL starts with http://. Keep the port number at the end if there is one.
- Usernames and passwords are case-sensitive. A capital letter in the wrong place is the most common sign-in error we see.
Let the first load finish
The first time you sign in, the app pulls in live channels, movies, series and the program guide. That takes one to three minutes depending on your connection. Leave it alone until the progress bars are done.
- Open Live TV, pick a category like "USA SPORTS" and start any channel to test.
- Star the channels you watch most. They land in Favorites at the top of the list.
Cast to a TV if you like
Smarters has a cast button in the player. It works with Chromecast and Google TV devices on the same Wi-Fi network.
Streaming in HD uses about 2 to 3 GB of data per hour. Watch on Wi-Fi when you can, or pick the SD version of a channel on cellular.
If something goes wrong
Video plays but there is no sound
Open the player settings and change the player type from Native to Software decoder, then try again.
App closes when I lock the screen
Android battery saver is killing it. Go to Settings > Apps > your player > Battery and set it to Unrestricted.
