TiviMate is what people move to once they have outgrown a basic player. Its programme guide is the best in the category, and if you spend most of your viewing browsing live TV rather than searching for something specific, that difference is felt every day.
TiviMate is third-party software made by an independent developer, not by Nexlivo. Your subscription details work inside it, as they do in any compatible player.
Cost: Free with a paid premium tier from the developer, which unlocks multiple playlists and recording. The free version is enough to evaluate it properly.
On Android TV or Google TV, install TiviMate directly from the Google Play Store.
Choose Add playlist, then Xtream Codes, and enter the username, password and server URL from your welcome message.
Allow the programme guide to import on first run, then set the update interval to daily in Settings so it never goes stale.
Mark the channels you actually watch. TiviMate surfaces favourites far faster than the full list, which is most of its day-to-day value.
No. TiviMate is Android-only, so it runs on Android TV, Google TV, Firestick and Android boxes. On a Samsung or LG TV you would use IBO Player or IPTV Smarters instead, or add a Firestick.
Not to try it. The free version handles a single playlist and the EPG grid, which is the main reason to use TiviMate at all. Premium adds multiple playlists and recording, and is a fee paid to the developer rather than to us.
The programme guide. Its grid view lets you scan across channels and time the way a traditional TV guide does, and it stays fast with hundreds of channels loaded. If you browse rather than search, it is a noticeable improvement.
Set up IBO Player Pro on Firestick, Samsung, LG, Android, iOS or Windows — MAC address activation, adding a playlist by Xtream Codes, and fixing common errors.
Set up IPTV Smarters on Firestick, Android, iOS, Smart TV or Windows — Xtream Codes login, loading the EPG, and fixing invalid-details errors.
