How to Setup Tivimate on a Firestick, Fire TV, and Fire Cube

with its easy-to-use interface, fully-fledged features, and solid integration to IPTV services, Tivimate is without any doubt one of the best IPTV players you can find out there.

In this article, I will break down how to easily set up Tivimate on your Firestick, Fire TV, and Android TV Box plus I will share a full review of all the features it provides.

what you first need to know is that Tivimate comes with two versions free and premium, I highly recommend you to go with the premium version which offers the following:

  • Catch-up
  • Allow connecting to multiple IPTV providers ( multi-playlists )
  • Schedule recordings
  • Add your favorite channels to a custom playlist
  • auto-update for the TV Guide ( EPG )
  • and many more

In my opinion, without the premium upgrade, it will be better to go with free IPTV players such as IPTV smarters pro, where you can get many of these premium features free of charge, but if you’re looking for a complete enjoyable user experience, you might want to give Tivimate premium a chance especially it’s not that expensive only 4.99$/year for 5 devices, and it comes with a 5-days free trial.

before diving any further with the features and how to make the most of them, I will first explain to you how you can easily set it up on your device step by step ( with screenshots )

How to install Tivimate on FireStick, Fire TV, and Android TV Box

If you have a google tv, NVidia shield, or any device that has direct access to the play store, you can simply go to the app store to download this app.

Just like any normal android application, type its name on the search bar click on the app icon, and hit install. you may find another app with a similar name called Tivimate companion, it’s just the app that allows you to create a premium account which I have covered below.

but if you have a Firestick there will be some additional steps you have to go through to sideload this app, because it’s not available by default on Fire TV Apps. ( don’t worry it will take you less than 15 min to get it on your Firestick)

#1 Install Downloader app

there is an app called the Downloader which I have covered how you can install it on your device in a separate article, if you haven’t done this yet, make sure first to read this article:

How to connect Tivimate to your IPTV provider

The main thing you need to know is that Tivimate is not a provider, it doesn’t give you any access to Live Tv or VOD ( Video-on-demand like movies & series), you need first to purchase a subscription from an IPTV provider based on your needs.

providers come in all shapes and sizes. do your research first check some reviews and always test only with one month when you first sign up to make sure the stream is stable.

I have published some articles reviewing how to choose the best IPTV provider along with some recommendations of what I personally use.

>> Tip: What are the best IPTV providers for 2021

when you sign up for a subscription they will send you an email with the m3u link that looks like this: http://line.domain.com/get.php?username**xxxx**&password=**xxxx**&type=m3u_plus&output=ts

Follow the screenshots below to make sure you successfully connect Tivimate to your IPTV provider server.

1- open Tivimate and click on add a new playlist

Tivimate Add new playlist

2- click on Enter URL

you will see many options you can either choose to connect with the m3u ( Enter URL) or Xtream codes login, for simplicity choose m3u ( there is no difference between the two) and you will get the same result at the end.

Tivimate choose Xtream codes

3- Type your Account information. & click next

as I said before your IPTV provider will send you some information including an m3u link that looks like this http://line.domain.com/get.php?username=XXXX&password=XXXX&type=m3u_plus&output=ts

Depending on whether they send you the Xtream codes login or not, you can always extract it from the m3u URL.

  • URL: is this first part: http://line.domain.com/
  • Username: is what after username= XXXX
  • Password: is what after password= XXXX
Tivimate add Xtream codes

4- wait until the processing is completed

Tivimate will start connecting to the server which can take about 1-3 minutes based on your internet speed.

5- Click Done.

as shown on this screenshot after the processing is completed Tivimate will display the total number of channels your providers have given you access to.

HOW TO CREATE A PREMIUM ACCOUNT WITH TIVIMATE

Now you have successfully finished connecting your IPTV provider to Tivimate, you will start to notice that many of the features are not working.

and this because you still have to unlock the premium features by entering your account details.

if you’re interested in the premium version you should register an account on another app called Tivimate companion.

Now what you need to know is that this app is only available on the play store if you don’t have an android phone, you will need to install an android emulator on your computer, I prefer Bluestacks which is available for both Mac OS and windows.

like any other program, all you have to do is to visit their official website ( https://www.bluestacks.com ) and click on the download button, after finishing the installation process you can log in to your google play account and search for the app with the name of ” Tivimate companion”.

if you don’t have an android phone or a computer to run an android emulator, there is no site or other way to register an account ( at least by the time this article got published I will make sure to update it if this changed in the future), the best option is to ask a friend or a family member to register an account for you.

creating an account is very simple just type your email account and a password ( make sure to save them both on a password manager or a safe place because you will need to use them later).

after completing the payment, close this app and go to the device you have already installed Tivimate on.

Open the Tivimate app and go to the settings you will see an option called unlock premium click on it.

Tivimate unlock premium

2- Click Next

this is just an Overview of what are the main features of Tivimate app.

3- Click on account

here you can use the same email and password you registered with on Tivimate companion on the next window you will be able to give your device a name and then access all the premium features right away.
