How to Install IPTV Smarters Pro on FireStick

IPTV Smarters Pro isn’t listed on the Amazon App Store, so we’ll need to sideload it from an external source. Before that, we must configure the FireStick to allow installations from unknown sources.

1 . Download & Install IPTV Smarters Pro

  1. On the FireStick home screen, select the Magnifying Glass > Search option. Type Downloader into the search bar. When it appears in the results, click it, then select the Downloader icon on the next screen and proceed to download and install the app.

2. Click Settings>My Fire TV>Developer options.

  1. You will see one of the following two options depending on your FireStick device version:

  1. Option 2 (old devices) - Apps from Unknown Sources: Click this option and then click Turn On on the following prompt. Skip the next step.

  1. Option 1 (new devices) - Install Unknown Apps: Click it and proceed to the next step to enable Downloader.

You now have the IPTV Smarters app on FireStick.

You’re all set! Just a quick reminder: your internet provider and many websites or apps can view your IP address and certain connection details. Using a VPN encrypts your internet traffic and hides your IP address, helping to safeguard your online privacy.

I suggest using ExpressVPN. It’s a well-known VPN that offers robust encryption and high-speed connections, and it’s easy to set up on Fire TV, FireStick, and other devices.

Next, I’ll guide you through setting up and using ExpressVPN on your Fire TV or FireStick.

Step 1: Sign up for ExpressVPN HERE. It includes a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it risk-free for the first 30 days. If, for any reason, you’re not satisfied with its performance (which is very unlikely), you can request a full refund.

Step 2: Turn on your Fire TV Stick, navigate to Find, and then select Search.

Step 5: Launch the app and enter the login details you set up when purchasing your ExpressVPN subscription, then tap Sign In.

Step 6: Tap the Power icon to connect to a VPN server. That’s it—your FireStick is now protected with a fast and reliable VPN.

How to Use IPTV Smarters on FireStick

If you plan to use IPTV Smarters often, it’s a good idea to add a shortcut to the app on your home screen.

IPTV Smarters does not come with any built-in channels. It functions solely as a media player, serving as a platform to organize and play content from IPTV service providers, rather than hosting any content itself. To use IPTV Smarters, you must have an active IPTV subscription; without one, the app cannot be used.

When you run the IPTV Smarters app for the first time, the Terms of Use will be the first window. Scroll down and click Accept.

This window will appear — it’s the home screen of IPTV Smarters Pro.

You can log in to your IPTV service on IPTV Smarters using either of the following methods:

  1. Load Your Playlist or File/URL

  2. Login with Xtream Codes API

Import Your Playlist or Enter a File/URL

To use IPTV Smarters, your IPTV service must support the M3U playlist format, as not all IPTV providers offer this feature.

To get started, click Load Your Playlist or File URL.

The app might ask for permission when you choose the “Load Your Playlist” or “File/URL” option. Simply click Allow.

This is the screen where you can enter your M3U playlist link. Select M3U URL under Playlist Type. In the Playlist Name field, enter any name of your choice. Then, in the File/URL field, paste the M3U URL. Finally, click Add User.

Sign in using the Xtream Codes API

M3U playlist URLs are usually long and inconvenient to enter manually with a FireStick remote. For this reason, I suggest using the Xtream Codes API, as the codes are shorter and easier to input. However, since Xtream Codes are no longer functional, I’m not certain whether the API codes will still work.

Click Login with Xtream Codes API to get started.

Clicking Login with Xtream Codes API will open a window where you can input your information. Fill in your name, username, password, and URL, then click Add User.
