✅ Quick Answer: To set up IPTV Smarters Pro, install the app from your device's store (or Downloader on Firestick), choose "Login with Xtream Codes API", then enter the username, password and server URL from your provider. With Xstream 4K IPTV you get 19,000+ channels and Sky Sports 4K from $19.99/month, plus a free 24-hour trial — no credit card needed.
IPTV Smarters Pro is a free media player that organises your IPTV subscription into a clean, Netflix-style interface — live TV, movies, series and catch-up all in one place. Crucially, the app does not include any channels itself. It is simply the player; you supply the content by logging in with credentials from your provider, such as Xstream 4K IPTV. Think of it like a web browser: useless without a website to visit, brilliant once you point it at the right address.
It is the most popular IPTV app in the UK for one reason — it just works. It runs on Firestick, Android phones and boxes, Samsung and LG Smart TVs, and iPhones and iPads, and it accepts both Xtream Codes API logins and M3U playlist URLs. If you have ever struggled with clunky players or playlists that won't load, IPTV Smarters Pro will feel like a breath of fresh air.
Supported Devices
📺
Amazon Firestick
Firestick 4K, 4K Max and Fire TV Cube. Installed via the Downloader app or the Amazon Appstore. The most popular UK choice.
🤖
Android
Phones, tablets and Android TV boxes (Nvidia Shield, Chromecast with Google TV). Straight from the Google Play Store.
🖥
Samsung & LG Smart TV
Native apps on Tizen (Samsung) and webOS (LG). No extra hardware needed — install from the TV app store.
🍎
iPhone & iPad
Available on the Apple App Store. Also runs on Apple TV 4K. Full Xtream Codes and M3U support.
It also runs on Windows 8/10/11 and macOS, so you can watch on a laptop too. For Android TV boxes and the Nvidia Shield, many UK users prefer TiviMate for its premium EPG and recording features, but IPTV Smarters Pro remains the best all-rounder because it's identical across every platform.
How to Install IPTV Smarters Pro on Any Device
Installation differs slightly per platform. Pick your device below. On a Firestick the app isn't always in the Amazon store, so we use the trusted Downloader method — the same one in our full IPTV install guide.
1
Firestick / Fire TV: Go to Settings › My Fire TV › Developer Options and turn on "Apps from Unknown Sources". Install the Downloader app from the Amazon Appstore, open it, and in the URL box type the official IPTV Smarters Pro download link. Download the APK, click Install, then Open. See our dedicated Firestick IPTV setup guide for screenshots.
2
Android phone / box: Open the Google Play Store, search "IPTV Smarters Pro", tap Install, then Open. That's it — no sideloading required on Android.
3
Samsung / LG Smart TV: Open the TV's app store (Samsung Apps on Tizen, LG Content Store on webOS), search "IPTV Smarters", and install it directly. Our Smart TV IPTV setup guide covers both brands in detail.
4
iPhone / iPad / Apple TV: Open the App Store, search "IPTV Smarters Pro", tap Get, and let it install. Sign-in is identical to other platforms.
5
Launch & agree: Open the app on any device, accept the Terms of Use and the disclaimer (it confirms the app holds no content), and you'll land on the login screen ready for your credentials.
💡 Tip: Don't have credentials yet? Grab our free 24-hour IPTV trial — we'll WhatsApp you a username, password and server URL within minutes, with no credit card required.
IPTV Smarters Pro Xtream Codes Login — Step by Step
Once the app is installed, logging in takes under two minutes. The Xtream Codes API method is the one we recommend, because it pulls in a proper EPG (TV guide), separates Live/Movies/Series automatically, and refreshes channels without you reloading anything.
1
On the IPTV Smarters Pro home screen, tap "Login with Xtream Codes API" (not the M3U option).
2
In Any Name, type a label for the profile, e.g. "Xstream 4K". This is just so you can tell profiles apart.
3
Enter the Username exactly as we sent it — it's case-sensitive, so watch capital letters and zeros vs the letter O.
4
Enter the Password exactly as supplied. Avoid trailing spaces if you copy and paste.
5
Enter the Server URL in full, including http:// and the port number (for example http://yourserver.com:8080). Do not add a slash or extra characters at the end.
6
Tap Add User. The app validates the credentials, downloads the channel list and EPG, and drops you onto the dashboard. Open Live TV and you're watching.
Prefer a playlist link instead? Choose "Load Your Playlist or File/URL", set the type to M3U URL, paste the full M3U link your provider gave you, and tap Add User. The app then loads every channel from that single URL. If you want to understand the file format itself, read our IPTV M3U playlist explainer.

Backup / older players
For 95% of UK users the Xtream Codes API is the better choice. Keep your M3U URL as a backup in case you ever switch to a player that only supports playlists.
EPG, Catch-Up & Recording
One of the reasons IPTV Smarters Pro is so popular is the built-in EPG (Electronic Programme Guide). When you log in via Xtream Codes, the app pulls a 7-day guide so you can see what's on Sky Sports, BBC, ITV and 19,000+ other channels, scroll forward, and set reminders. If the guide looks empty, give it a minute to download, or force a refresh from Settings.
📅
7-Day EPG
Full programme guide with now/next, channel logos and category filters for live sport and films.
⏪
Catch-Up TV
Rewind selected channels for up to 7 days — perfect if you missed last night's match or a soap episode.
🎬
VOD & Series
50,000+ on-demand films and box sets with posters, descriptions and resume-where-you-left-off.
🔔 Sport in 4K: For Sky Sports 4K and TNT Sports without freezing, use a wired Ethernet connection on a Firestick 4K Max or Smart TV. If your stream stutters, see our IPTV Firestick not working fix — nine times out of ten it's the network, not the app.
Fixing IPTV Smarters Pro Login Errors
Most login failures come down to a typo or an expired subscription. Work through these in order before contacting support.
1
"Invalid username or password": Re-type the credentials carefully — they're case-sensitive. Remove any space accidentally pasted at the end.
2
"Could not connect to server": Check the server URL includes http:// and the correct port, with no trailing slash. Confirm your internet is up by opening any website.
3
Channels load but won't play / buffer: Switch to Ethernet or move closer to the router. Try the app's alternate player in Settings › Player Selection (try VLC or the hardware decoder).
4
Logged in yesterday, blocked today: Your trial or subscription may have expired, or you're on a different network that throttles IPTV — try mobile data to test. Message us on WhatsApp to confirm your account status.
5
EPG empty: Force-refresh the guide in Settings, or log out and back in via Xtream Codes (M3U logins often lack EPG data).
Install the app from your device's app store (or via the Downloader app on Firestick), open it, accept the terms, then tap "Login with Xtream Codes API". Enter the username, password and server URL from your provider and tap Add User. The channels and EPG load automatically and you can start watching.
Yes, the IPTV Smarters Pro app is completely free to download and use. It is only a media player — you still need an active IPTV subscription, such as Xstream 4K IPTV from $19.99/month, to supply the channels. We offer a free 24-hour trial so you can test it first.
Enable "Apps from Unknown Sources" in Settings, install the Downloader app from the Amazon Appstore, enter the official IPTV Smarters Pro APK link in Downloader, download and install it, then open the app and log in with your Xtream Codes credentials.
Xtream Codes API is the recommended login method. You enter three details — a username, a password and a server URL (including http:// and a port). It loads a full TV guide and neatly separates Live TV, Movies and Series, which a plain M3U URL usually does not.
This almost always means a typo — the credentials are case-sensitive, so check capital letters and that you haven't pasted a trailing space. If they're definitely correct, your subscription may have expired. Contact your provider on WhatsApp to confirm your account is active.
A minimum of 10 Mbps gives smooth HD streaming. For 4K channels like Sky Sports 4K we recommend 25–50 Mbps and, ideally, a wired Ethernet connection to avoid buffering during live sport.
Yes. IPTV Smarters Pro has native apps for Samsung Tizen and LG webOS TVs. Search "IPTV Smarters" in your TV's app store, install it, and log in with Xtream Codes — no extra box or Firestick required.
