TiviMate IPTV Player: Install & Set up on FireStick & Android TV

In this tutorial, I will guide you through the process of installing, setting up, and using the TiviMate IPTV Player on both Fire TV Stick and Android TV boxes. The instructions for the Fire TV Stick are applicable to all Amazon Fire TV devices, including the FireStick Lite, FireStick 4K, and Fire TV Cube.

IPTV services are becoming increasingly popular due to their wide selection of live TV channels, movies, and TV series offered at prices lower than traditional media giants.

Many IPTV services come with native apps for various devices, including FireStick, Android TV Box, iPhone, Android phone, NVIDIA Shield, and Fire TV Cube.

However, not all IPTV services offer a dedicated app for content streaming. Some depend on IPTV players to fulfill this role, and among these players, TiviMate is particularly noteworthy.

Is TiviMate Safe & Legal?

TiviMate is a widely used IPTV player known for its functionality and user-friendly interface, but it's essential to address concerns about its safety and legality.

TiviMate is considered safe as it is available on the Google Play Store, although it is not available on the Amazon Store. You can sideload the APK from an external source. Always scan the APK with an antivirus before installing it. The following image shows the Virus Total scan result of the TiviMate APK, confirming it as safe, as all security vendors have approved it.

TiviMate is a legal application designed to function as a player for legitimate IPTV services. However, the legality of the content you access through TiviMate depends on the source. Using TiviMate to access copyrighted content without proper authorization may infringe copyright laws.

1. Select the Settings Gear on the far right of the FireStick home screen. Then, scroll down and select My Fire TV. Choose Developer Options.
   Note: If you do not see Developer Options, go to Settings > My Fire TV > About. Select Fire TV Stick and click it seven times to enable Developer Options. If you’re unsure how to do it, here’s a step-by-step guide to enable developer options.
2. You will see one of the following two options depending on your FireStick device version:
   • Option 1 - Install Unknown Apps: Click this option and proceed to the next step to enable Downloader.

Now, you can sideload any app installation file (APK) on the FireStick without issues.

Use Downloader to Install TiviMate on FireStick

1. Launch Downloader and select Enter a URL box on the home screen.
2. A virtual keyboard will open. Type firesticktricks.com/tivi and hit Go at the bottom.
   Note: FireStickTricks.com does not host this APK. This URL redirects you to an external source.
3. The downloader will install the latest TiviMate APK on your FireStick. It’s about 12MB.
4. Click Install when prompted.
5. Click Done when the TiviMate installation is complete.
6. After installation, click Delete to remove the TiviMate APK from your device.
7. Click Delete once again to complete the removal.

That’s it! You’ve successfully installed the TiviMate APK on your FireStick. You can enjoy hundreds of live channels by connecting an IPTV service to the app.

Your FireStick/Fire TV is now ready to stream your favorite content. However, before you start, I want to warn you that everything you stream online is visible to your ISP and Government. This means streaming free movies, TV shows, or sports might get you into legal trouble.

Getting Started with TiviMate IPTV Player

TiviMate IPTV Player should be your first choice for streaming channels via your subscribed IPTV service. To make access easier, place the app on the FireStick home screen.

To get started, you need an active subscription to an IPTV service. TiviMate does not offer content to users on its own.

Note: Setting up an IPTV service in TiviMate may not work when connected to a VPN. Disconnect the VPN, add the IPTV service, and then reconnect the VPN.

• Select Add playlist.

TiviMate will ask you to add a playlist using an M3U link, Xtream code, or Stalker Portal. I’m selecting the M3U playlist because my IPTV provider uses this technology.

Note: When you subscribe to an IPTV service, you will receive an email with relevant login information and an M3U link. If you don’t get an M3U link, try contacting customer support and requesting one.

• TiviMate will ask for your M3U link. Enter your M3U link and press Next.

Note: Most M3U links contain a username and password. They look something like this: http://013tv.com:8080/get.php?username=test-65927c&password=e657&type=m3u_plus&output=ts.

Pro-tip: For your convenience, you may want to connect your FireStick to the Fire TV app on your iPhone or Android smartphone (here’s how to do it). The app lets you quickly type long URLs using your phone’s default keyboard.

• Click Next.

TiviMate will load the IPTV service and display the number of channels and movies available in the IPTV package. You can also select the Playlist name to change it. Once done, click Next to continue.

Note: You can select TV or VOD playlists depending on the nature of your IPTV service.

• If your IPTV provider provides an EPG URL, enter it in this window. Select Enter URL, enter the URL, and click Next. Once done, select Done to save the playlist.

Lastly, note down the remote control and click OK to finish the setup.

How to Use TiviMate IPTV Player on FireStick

The IPTV service’s content will appear in the TiviMate app within a few minutes.

By default, you’ll start in TiviMate’s TV section, where you can access sub-sections like All channels, Undefined, Sports, General, Music, News, Entertainment, and more.

Next is the Movies section, which has multiple sub-sections where you can access the VOD content of your IPTV playlist.

Next is Recordings, where you can access the content you have recorded.

How to Enable Default EPG in TiviMate IPTV Player

Most IPTV services have a dedicated EPG (electronic program guide). If you don’t find an EPG enabled in the TiviMate app, go to Settings and select EPG.

Then, enable Default source.

However, many of TiviMate’s significant features are behind a paywall. To enjoy its full potential, you must pay for the premium version.

Purchase & Setup TiviMate Premium using TiviMate Companion

TiviMate offers a 5-day trial of the premium version. Premium costs $4.99 per year for up to 5 devices, or you can opt for the lifetime version at $19.99. I suggest starting with the one-year purchase, and if you’re satisfied with the features, you can consider upgrading to a lifetime TiviMate Premium.

You can’t purchase TiviMate Premium from its FireStick app. Instead, you must use the TiviMate Companion app from the Google Play Store.

Since the app is available on Android devices, using an Android phone or tablet (or even Android TV) is the easiest way to get TiviMate Premium. If you can’t access an Android device, you can use an Android emulator like BlueStacks on a PC or macOS.

Follow these steps to purchase a TiviMate Premium subscription:

1. Go to TiviMate Settings and click Unlock Premium.

2. Select Next.

3. Click Account.

4. Choose Sign up.

5. Enter your email, password, and re-enter the password. Then, click Create account.

6. Keep this screen open on your FireStick.

7. Open the Play Store on your Android device. Tap the search bar at the top and search for TiviMate Companion. Install the TiviMate Companion app on your device. Then, follow these steps:

   • Open the app. It will ask you to create an account. Click the Account button.
   • Enter your TiviMate account details and click Login.
   • Select a plan and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the payment.

Once you have purchased the subscription, click Next on the TiviMate Subscription screen in Step 6 to continue.

TiviMate Details and Features

The TiviMate app is an IPTV player with a built-in video player as one of its prime selling points. The video player is feature-rich and complements the rest of the app perfectly. If you have subscribed to multiple IPTV services, you can add them to the TiviMate app.

You can mark multiple channels as favorites from IPTV services and view them from the Favorites menu. I recommend using the Groups and Favorites functions so you don’t have to search thousands of TV channels to find your desired content.

Record Content

TiviMate IPTV Player allows you to record content and view it later. If you don’t have time to watch something immediately, hit the Record button in the video player and view it later from the Recordings tab on the home screen of the TiviMate app.

Enable Subtitles

Subtitles are useful when you’re watching content in a language other than your native one. To enable subtitles, hit the CC (closed captions) button from the player menu and enable them from the sliding menu.

Add to Favorites

There are multiple ways to add a channel to your favorites in the TiviMate Player app. Our go-to method is using the

Add to Favorites button within the video player.

Multi-view Mode

TiviMate also allows you to view multiple channels at once. From the player menu, select Multi-view and select another channel to view two channels simultaneously.

Sleep Timer

A sleep timer is essential for any IPTV app. It turns off the app after a set amount of time. The sleep timer is built right into the player menu. To use it, press the stopwatch icon on the video player screen and select the time from the right-side menu.

You can automatically put the TiviMate app to sleep for 15 to 240 minutes. This feature is useful, for example, when children watch TV before bed. You can set a half-hour timer to shut down the app.

Check Video Details

By default, the TiviMate Player offers details on video quality, number of frames per second (FPS), and sound quality.

Change App Appearance

If you are unhappy with the TiviMate app’s default look and theme, you can change it. Go to Settings and click Appearance. Here, you can change multiple aspects of the current look, such as the TV guide, font size, background color, and selection color.

The list above is just the tip of the iceberg for the TiviMate app. A premium subscription unlocks dozens of valuable features. For more details, check out the article’s TiviMate overview section.
