What You Need:

Android TV, Firestick, Fire TV Cube, NVIDIA Shield, or any Android TV Box
TiviMate app installed (free or premium)
Your IPTV M3U URL (from Global IPTV Net — get a free trial)
Internet connection — minimum 10 Mbps for HD

Step 1: Install TiviMate

On Android TV / NVIDIA Shield / Android TV Box:

Open the Google Play Store on your device
Search for "TiviMate"
Select TiviMate IPTV Player and tap Install
Open TiviMate once installed

On Amazon Firestick (sideload required):

Enable "Apps from Unknown Sources" in Firestick Settings → My Fire TV → Developer Options
Install the Downloader app from the Amazon App Store
In Downloader, enter the TiviMate APK URL (message us on WhatsApp for the current link)
Install and open TiviMate

Step 2: Add Your IPTV Playlist

Open TiviMate
On the welcome screen, tap "Add playlist"
Select "M3U playlist"
Select "Enter URL"
Paste your M3U URL (the link we sent you via WhatsApp — it looks like: http://server.example.com:port/get.php?username=XXX&password=XXX&type=m3u_plus)
Tap Next and wait for TiviMate to load the playlist (30–90 seconds)
Give your playlist a name (e.g., "Global IPTV") and tap Add

Step 3: Set Up the EPG TV Guide

The EPG (Electronic Programme Guide) shows you what's on now and next — like a real TV guide. We provide an EPG URL with your subscription.

In TiviMate, go to Settings (gear icon)
Select Playlists → tap your playlist name
Select EPG
Tap "Add EPG source" and choose "URL"
Enter your EPG URL (provided by Global IPTV Net — message us if you don't have it)
Return to the main screen — the TV guide will update within a few minutes

TiviMate FAQ

This usually means the M3U URL is incorrect or your subscription has expired. Double-check the URL you entered — copy and paste it rather than typing manually. If the URL is correct, contact our support team on WhatsApp to verify your credentials are active.

Go to Settings → Playlists → select your playlist → tap "Refresh". TiviMate will re-download the M3U file and update your channel list with any new channels. We update our channel list regularly so it's worth refreshing every 2–4 weeks.

TiviMate is only available for Android-based devices (Android TV, Firestick, Shield TV, Android TV Box). For iPhone/iPad, we recommend GSE Smart IPTV or nPlayer. For Samsung Tizen Smart TVs, use IPTV Smarters or contact us on WhatsApp for Samsung-specific setup help. See our Supported Devices page for all options.
