How to Set Up IPTV on Android TV

On Android TV devices – such as TVs from Sony, Philips or TCL – we recommend TiviMate. You install the app from the Google Play Store as usual.

What you need

  • Android TV television or box with Google Play Store
  • Internet from 16 Mbps for HD, 50 Mbps for 4K
  • Your login details from our WhatsApp message
  • A Google account on the device

Step by step: how to set up IPTV on Android TV

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Install TiviMate

    Open the Google Play Store on your TV, search for “TiviMate IPTV Player” and install the app.

    Step 3

    Load channels and TV guide

    TiviMate now loads all channels, movies, series and the TV guide (EPG). The first time this can take a minute or two.

    Step 4

    Start watching

    Pick a category or channel on the left. Long-press a channel to add it to your favourites so you find it faster.

Tip: under Settings → Playlists you can hide groups you don’t need – the channel list becomes much clearer.

Alternative: IBO Player Pro

IBO Player Pro also runs on Android TV. Install it via the Downloader app with code 923441 or as an APK from ibo.al. Instead of a login you send us the MAC address and device key – we add the playlist.

Fixing problems on Android TV

  • TiviMate isn’t in the Play Store

    Check whether your TV really runs Android TV or Google TV. Some TVs (with Tizen, webOS or VIDAA) have no Play Store – use the guide for your device instead.

  • “Login failed”

    Check the server URL, username and password for typos – they are case-sensitive. The server URL starts with http:// and usually contains a port such as :8080.

  • No TV guide visible

    Open Settings → EPG and refresh the TV guide manually. For most channels the programme appears within a few minutes.

FAQ: IPTV on Android TV

Is TiviMate free?

The basic features are free. For extras such as multiple playlists or recording there is TiviMate Premium, which you buy directly from the app developer.

Does 4K work on Android TV?

Yes, if your TV supports 4K and your internet is fast enough (we recommend at least 50 Mbps).

Can I install the app on several TVs?

Yes. But one subscription is valid for one device at a time – you can’t watch on two TVs simultaneously.
