Before you start

  • An Android phone or tablet on Android 8 or newer
  • Your Best IPTV Canadian login
  • Wi-Fi or a data plan

Your login email contains a server URL, a username and a password (Xtream Codes format) and an M3U link. Keep it handy. Do not have one yet? Request a free trial login.

Step-by-step: Android Phone and Tablet

  1. Install the app

    Open the Google Play Store, search for "IPTV Smarters Pro" or "TiviMate" and tap Install.

  2. Sign in

    Open the app, choose Login with Xtream Codes API, and enter the server URL, username and password from your email.

  3. Load the guide

    Wait for the channel list and TV guide to download, then choose your categories.

  4. Watch

    Tap a channel to play it. Rotate the phone for full screen. Cast to a Chromecast or Android TV with the cast icon if you like.

Tips and quick fixes

  • Turn on Picture-in-Picture in the app settings to keep a game in the corner while you use other apps.
  • A live HD stream uses about 1.5 GB per hour on mobile data.
  • On Samsung tablets, IPTV Smarters Pro in landscape gives a full TV-style guide.

Android Phone and Tablet questions

Can I cast IPTV from my Android phone to my TV?

Yes. IPTV Smarters Pro and XCIPTV have a cast button that sends the stream to a Chromecast, Android TV or Google TV on the same Wi-Fi network.

Does my phone count as one of my devices?

Only while it is playing. Your plan allows 1 to 5 streams at the same time; an installed but idle app does not count.

Which app is best on a phone?

IPTV Smarters Pro is the easiest on a phone screen. TiviMate is designed for TVs and is better on a tablet in landscape.
