IPTV Xtream setup: log in with Xtream Codes on any device
In short: open your IPTV app, choose the Xtream Codes login, and type the server URL, username and password from your IPTV Xtream email. Live TV, the TV guide and VOD load automatically.
The 4 steps (all apps)
Install an Xtream Codes player
Pick an app for your device, for example IPTV Smarters Pro, TiviMate, XCIPTV, iMPlayer or UHF.
Choose the Xtream Codes login
In the app, add a user or playlist and select "Xtream Codes", "Xtream Codes API" or "Xtream login".
Type your three details
Enter the server URL, username and password from your IPTV Xtream email. Give the profile any name.
Let it load
The app downloads live channels, the guide and the VOD library. The first load takes about a minute.
| Field | Example format | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Server / URL | http://server-address:8080 | Keep http:// and the port |
| Username | letters and numbers | No space at the end |
| Password | letters and numbers | Watch for O vs 0, l vs 1 |
IPTV Smarters Pro
Open the app and choose Login with Xtream Codes API. Fill in any name, then the username, password and server URL. Tap Add user. The app downloads live TV, movies and series, then shows its home screen with separate tiles for each.
TiviMate
On first launch choose Add playlist, then Xtream Codes. Enter the server, username and password, confirm, and let TiviMate process the channels and guide. TiviMate is built for Android TV and Firestick and has one of the best guide views.
XCIPTV
XCIPTV is designed around Xtream logins: enter the server, username and password on its sign-in screen and press Sign in. It is quick to set up with a remote control.
Apple TV, iPhone and iPad
Apps such as UHF, IPTV Smarters and GSE Smart IPTV run on Apple devices. Add a playlist or user with the Xtream Codes type. On Apple TV, use your iPhone's keyboard prompt to type faster.
Samsung and LG smart TVs
Install a player from the TV's app store that accepts Xtream logins; IBO Player is a common choice. Some TV apps ask you to activate the app with its own developer, which is separate from your IPTV Xtream plan. Alternatively, plug a Firestick or Google TV streamer into the TV. Details in Xtream Codes on a smart TV.
Windows and Mac
Desktop versions of Xtream players exist, or you can open the M3U link from your email in VLC for quick viewing without a guide.
Setting up on Firestick? The dedicated walkthrough, including how to install apps from outside the Amazon store safely, is in Xtream Codes on Firestick.
If it does not connect
Nine times out of ten it is a typing error in the server URL. The full checklist, from expired plans to blocked networks, is in Xtream login not working.
FAQ
Where do I find my server URL?
In the login email from IPTV Xtream. Copy it exactly, including http:// and the port number (the part after the colon) if there is one.
The app asks for an M3U URL instead. What do I do?
Look for an Xtream Codes option first; most apps have one. If the app only takes M3U, use the M3U link from your email.
Can I use the same login on my phone and my TV?
Yes, log in on as many devices as you like. One device can play at a time on a single plan.
Do I need to set up the TV guide separately?
Not with the Xtream Codes login: the guide loads automatically. With M3U, some apps need the guide (XMLTV) link added separately.
