What is TiviMate?
TiviMate IPTV Player is a media player for IPTV playlists. Like other players, it includes no channels or content. It connects to your provider’s server with the login details you enter and shows your live channels in a programme guide that is easy to browse with a remote control.
Main TiviMate features
- Xtream Codes and M3U support: log in with your server URL, username and password, or add an M3U playlist link.
- TV guide layout: a full-screen programme guide (EPG) with channels on one side and programmes on a timeline.
- Built for remote controls: the interface is designed for TV screens and simple navigation with a remote.
- Favourites and channel groups: organise your channels so you can find them quickly.
- Premium features: multiple playlists, catch-up and recording are available with TiviMate Premium.
What is an IPTV Xtream Code?
An Xtream Code is a set of login details from your IPTV provider: a username, a password and a server URL such as http://example.com:8080. The app uses these details to connect to your provider through the Xtream Codes API. If you do not have login details yet, read our guide on how to get a free IPTV Xtream Code through a legitimate trial.
Which devices support TiviMate?
The app is made for Android TV, so it works best on devices that you control with a remote:
- Android TV and Google TV: TV boxes, streaming sticks and Smart TVs with Android TV or Google TV. Install it from the TiviMate listing on Google Play.
- Amazon Firestick and Fire TV: on Fire OS devices, you install it with Downloader from the developer’s official website. Newer models with Vega OS can only use apps from the Amazon Appstore. See our Firestick guide.
- Android phones and tablets: you can install it, but it is not optimized for touch screens. See our Android guide for better phone options.
There is no version for iPhone, Apple TV, Samsung or LG Smart TVs, Roku or Windows. On those devices, use a player such as IBO Player or IPTV Smarters Pro instead.
How to set up TiviMate with Xtream Codes
Follow this step-by-step tutorial to add your Xtream Codes login to TiviMate. The screenshots show the current app layout on Android TV. Menu names can differ slightly between app versions.
Step 1: Launch TiviMate and start adding a playlist
Open the TiviMate app on your Android TV, Google TV or Fire OS device. On the welcome screen, select Add playlist to begin the setup process.
Step 2: Select Xtream Codes as your login method
The app asks which type of playlist you want to add. Choose Xtream Codes from the available playlist options. This is the option for the username, password and server URL from your IPTV provider.
Step 3: Find your Xtream Codes login details
Get the Xtream Codes details supplied by your IPTV provider (see how to get IPTV Xtream Code). You usually find them in your welcome email or customer account. You need three details: your Username, your Password and the Server URL.
Step 4: Enter your Xtream Codes login details
Fill in the fields with the details from your provider:
- Server address: the complete server URL, including
http://orhttps://and the port number if your provider gave one. - Username: your IPTV username.
- Password: your IPTV password. It is case-sensitive.
Step 5: Confirm your details and continue
Check every field for typing mistakes and extra spaces. Once you have entered your login information, press Next to proceed. The app connects to your provider’s server and checks your details.
Step 6: Load your playlist and finish setup
The app processes your playlist and shows how many channels, movies and series it found. Wait until the playlist has loaded successfully, then give it a name if you like and tap Done. With Xtream Codes, the programme guide usually loads automatically. If it stays empty, add the EPG link from your provider in the playlist settings.
Step 7: Your TiviMate setup is complete
Everything is ready. The app opens its TV guide with your channels and programme information. You can now enjoy streaming your favourite live TV channels, movies and series.
TiviMate Premium: what you get and how to buy it
The basic version of TiviMate is free. It lets you add one playlist and watch your live channels with the programme guide. TiviMate Premium unlocks extra features, including:
- Multiple playlists: add more than one playlist.
- Catch-up: watch past programmes, if your provider supports it.
- Recording: record programmes to watch later.
- More customisation: extra options for the guide, channels and player.
You buy Premium with the TiviMate Companion app on an Android phone. Sign in to the same account on your TV device to unlock Premium there. Subscription and one-time options are offered, and prices can vary by country, so check the current offer in the Companion app before you pay. Premium unlocks app features only and includes no channels.
Tips for a better TiviMate experience
- Use a wired connection: connect your TV box with an Ethernet cable when possible for smoother playback.
- Update the guide: if programme information is missing, update the EPG in the playlist settings.
- Organise your channels: hide groups you never watch and add favourites so the guide stays clear.
- Check the video player settings: if a channel stutters or does not play, try a different decoder option in the player settings.
- Keep the app updated: install updates from Google Play or the official website.
TiviMate vs other IPTV players
TiviMate is the best choice if you want a classic TV guide on an Android TV box. If you use a phone, a tablet or a Windows PC, read our IPTV Smarters Pro guide. For Samsung and LG Smart TVs or Apple devices, see our IBO Player guide.
Where can you get your IPTV Xtream Codes?
Your Xtream Codes login details always come from your IPTV service provider. Installing TiviMate does not create them, because it is a player only and includes no channels.
After you buy a subscription or receive an authorized trial, look for your details in the welcome email, your customer account or messages from your provider. Keep your username, password and server URL private, and never share them publicly.

Common TiviMate problems and fixes
Invalid server URL or login
Copy the complete server address from your provider, including http:// or https:// and the port number if one was supplied. Type your username and password again and watch for extra spaces and upper or lower case letters.
The programme guide is empty
Open the playlist settings and update the EPG. If it stays empty, add the EPG link from your provider as a separate source.
Channels not loading or buffering
Check that your subscription is still active. Restart your router and your TV device, use a wired connection where possible and pause downloads on other devices.
Premium features are locked
Multiple playlists, catch-up and recording need Premium. Check that you are signed in to the same account on your TV device that you used in the Companion app.
The app does not install on Firestick
Fire TV devices with Vega OS cannot install apps from outside the Amazon Appstore. On Fire OS devices, check that Downloader is allowed to install unknown apps.
