Install it
- Search for TiviMate from the Google TV home screen, or open Google Play on an Android TV device and search there.
- Check the developer. The listing is TiviMate IPTV Player by Armobsoft FZE. Ignore look-alike names from other developers.
- Select Install, then Open.
That’s it: on these devices the app updates through Google Play like any other.
Add your playlist
Open TiviMate, add a playlist and choose Xtream Codes, M3U playlist or Stalker portal, depending on what your provider sent. Enter the details exactly as your provider sent them, and let the channels and guide load. The full walk-through is in add a playlist to TiviMate, and guide problems are covered in TiviMate EPG.
Premium on Google TV
On a device with Google Play, you buy Premium inside TiviMate and pay through Google Play. You don’t need the Companion app; that’s for devices without Google Play, such as Fire TV. Premium unlocks app features only, never channels. See TiviMate Premium.
Tips for each device
| Device | Tip |
|---|---|
| Google TV Streamer | Use its built-in gigabit Ethernet port for the steadiest picture. See Google TV Streamer for IPTV. |
| Chromecast with Google TV | Storage is tight: remove apps you don’t use and keep space free for the guide. See Android TV storage full. |
| Nvidia Shield | Ethernet is built in, and the Shield has its own frame-rate switching. See Nvidia Shield for IPTV. |
| Google TV and Android TV televisions | Check for system updates first, and turn on frame-rate matching in the player or the TV’s display settings. See frame rates explained. |
