How to Get IPTV on Your Smart TV in 2026 – Beginner Friendly

How to Setup IPTV on Your Smart TV (2026 Guide)

Setting up IPTV on your Smart TV is quick and easy. In just 5–10 minutes, you can start streaming your favourite live channels, movies, and shows using 4K IPTV UK. Here’s how to do it using the best IPTV apps available.

First, you’ll need to download an IPTV app from your Smart TV’s app store. Here are some of the most popular and reliable options:

1. IPTV Smarters Pro (Free for life):
   This app has a clean user interface and is completely free. It doesn’t require uploading your playlist on a separate website, but it can sometimes be buggy.

2. HOT IPTV (30-day trial, then €4.99/year):
   Recommended for its smooth, reliable interface. You can test it free for 14 days, then continue using it for just €5 a year.

3. IBO Player / IBO Player Pro (7-day trial, then $10 lifetime):
   A widely used and generally stable IPTV app. It’s a one-time activation after the trial ends.

4. Other options for older Smart TVs include: Smart One IPTV, Duplex IPTV, Net IPTV, SS IPTV, and Smart IPTV. All of these follow a similar setup process.

To install IPTV Smarters Pro, go to your TV’s App Store, search for IPTV Smarters Pro, and install it. Once installed, open the app and select the Xtream Codes API login option. Then enter the login details sent to you by 4K IPTV UK:

• First Box: You can write anything (e.g. 4K IPTV UK)

• Username: Sent to your email or WhatsApp

• Password: Sent to your email or WhatsApp

• Server URL: Sent to your email or WhatsApp (must start with https://)

If the app doesn’t work with your URL, ask us for a DNS-compatible version. Not all server links work with all apps, and the format matters—make sure it’s not https://.

For apps like HOT IPTV, IBO Player, or other paid apps, setup is just as easy.

Go to your Smart TV’s App Store and install your preferred IPTV player—such as HOT IPTV, IBO Player, or DuplexCast.

After launching the app, it will display your TV’s MAC address. You’ll need this to activate the app.

You have two setup options:

• Option 1: Send your MAC address, app name, and payment email/order ID via WhatsApp using the icon on our website

• Option 2: Do it yourself. Just visit hotplayer.app/upload

Enter your MAC address, click Next, then paste the M3U link you received from 4K IPTV UK into the playlist field. You can name the playlist anything you want. Click Save, then restart the app on your TV.

Make sure your M3U link starts with https:// and not https://, or it won’t work on some apps.

This same process applies to most paid IPTV apps. While IPTV Smarters Pro is free, it may occasionally glitch. If you want more stability and smoother performance, we recommend going with a paid option like HOT IPTV or IBO Player Pro.
