TiviMate stands out as one of the finest IPTV Players for various devices like the Amazon Firestick, Android TV/Google TV Boxes such as BuzzTV, NVIDIA SHIELD, Chromecast, onn. Google TV Box, Windows PC, and more.

While the app itself lacks live channels for streaming, users have the option to integrate an M3U URL or an Xtream Code URL for live streaming within the app.

Before proceeding with this guide, ensure that your current IPTV Service grants access to their M3U URL/Xtream Code API.

Typically, this information can be found in the service’s support documents or online forums provided to subscribers.

TiviMate offers both free and premium versions, with the premium subscription currently priced at $9.99/year or $29.99 for a lifetime subscription.

TROYPOINT recommends opting for the premium account for access to exclusive features not available in the free version.

Premium Features

Users opting for the Premium plan benefit from numerous features, including: Scheduled recordings, Custom recurring recordings, Support for multiple playlists, Backup/Restore, External Video Player, Parental Controls, Picture-in-Picture, Favorites management, Catch-up, Customizable TV Guide update intervals, Customizable Panels transparency and timeout, Customize Groups and Channels, Manual Channels sorting, Turning on the last channel on the app start, Auto frame rate (AFR), Reminder to automatically play channel, and Many More.

As shown, without the premium upgrade, the app’s usage may be limited.

We recommend starting with the free version following the instructions below. If you find it satisfactory, you can then opt for the premium subscription—covered in detail in this article.

In this walkthrough, an Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max is utilized.

These instructions are also applicable to Android TV/Google TV devices like NVIDIA SHIELD, MECOOL Boxes, onn. Google TV Box, and others.

Details & Features

Upon installing TiviMate, you will immediately notice the unique interface it provides.

This varies from other IPTV Players and works fabulously.

The menu bar on the left lists your Playlist Categories or “Groups” as they are referred to in the app.

These can be hidden, removed, and managed all within the Settings.

This is a great way to eliminate any unwanted Channel lists that you don’t use or need.

Because of the uncertainty of live TV services, TROYPOINT always suggestsHaving a backup is essential.

With this app, users have the option to integrate multiple services or “Playlists” within the app, allowing them to combine two or more services into one!

This feature ensures that your live streaming is continuously available and helps you manage your favorite channels across various platforms.

Best of all, the app operates swiftly on any preferred device, including Firestick, Android TV, Google TV, and more.

Navigation

The app’s navigation is seamless when using your streaming device’s remote control. For Firestick users, the available options include:

• Select Button: Opens Channel
• Back Button: Shows Groups/Return to Guide
• Left Button: Scrolls to Previous Program
• Right Button: Scrolls to Next Program
• Up Button: Scrolls Up through Channels
• Down Button: Scrolls Down through Channels
• Rewind Button: Scrolls Channels Up without changing the channel
• Fast Forward: Scrolls Channels Down without changing the channel

After playing a channel, selecting the button allows you to access various options:

This includes the ability to view recent channels, quick select, and reopen the TV Guide with your current channel playing in the background:

Groups

The Groups feature within TiviMate distinguishes it from other IPTV apps, allowing users to condense their TV streaming experience effectively.

To edit these groups, simply open the TV Guide, click the Menu Button (3 horizontal lines) on your remote, and then select Group options:

Select Manage groups

To remove an unwanted or unused group, simply toggle it off:

Only the highlighted groups will be visible on the left-side menu bar of the home screen. To rearrange the order, click Manage positions:

Click to highlight and adjust the group’s position to your preference! Using the Favorites Tab at the top is recommended for a personalized streaming experience.

NOTE: TROYPOINT suggests adding your preferred channels to Favorites to maximize the app’s functionality. This allows all navigational features to work smoothly within.the Favorites “Group” means that all scrolling and selection will be done through your Favorite Channels! There are a few ways to add a Channel to Favorites. The first option is to long-click when playing a Channel and select “Add to Favorites”.

Or, if you would like to add multiple channels quickly, simply press the Menu button from the TV Guide to prompt the options shown in the image. After making a channel selection, users have numerous options within the player. You can easily access the channel list by clicking the down button which will give quick access to the Channel list without returning to the EPG.

Parental Controls

For those who wish to use Parental Controls, these can also be established within the Parental controls Category.

This includes setting and using a PIN Number for access. You can adjust these to require a PIN for Playlists, TV Guide, Group options, and more.

To go along with the Parental Controls is also the ability to block various channels.

You can find this option within the Settings of any channel.

Within the Settings option are tons of features and options that will help you get the most out of your Live TV experience.

Adjusting these will help cater the app to your specific preferences. We suggest checking out all of these Categories to ensure the app is set to your liking.

Subtitles

While other IPTV players fall short when it comes to Closed Captioning, TiviMate does not.

That being said, working subtitles will vary from Channel to Channel within the app.

How To Enable Subtitles:

• Open and play your preferred content
• Long Click the Select button on your remote to open options and choose CC

• Change toggle from “Off” to “Closed captions 1”

• Subtitles will now load for your content

TiviMate External Video Player

Another excellent feature that TiviMate provides is the ability to use external video players.

This is something we don’t always see in IPTV Players that usually have a built-in video player.

Users can easily choose to open in an external player after making a channel selection.

We could go on and on about all of the features TiviMate provides, however, your best bet is to try it yourself to see just how extensive these options are!

Recording Capabilities

In my opinion, one of the best features of this application is the ability to schedule recordings. Guess what?

You can even schedule multiple recordings at the same time!
