IPTV setup guides: install your subscription on every device

A selection of step-by-step guides to set up IPTV on your favourite devices. We've ranked them by ease of use — the simplest option first. Get everything set up in about 5 minutes.

  • ✓Setup takes about 5 minutes
  • ✓V12Mate app included free
  • ✓Works on all major devices

Before you start

We only sell the subscription. Our V12Mate app is free on Android & Firestick, and you can use any player you like. Some third-party players may require their own licence after the trial.

It works like a SIM card — your subscription is the SIM, and the player app is the phone you use it in.

Keep your welcome email to hand: it contains your Xtream Codes login details (server URL, username, password) and the equivalent M3U link.
