This step-by-step tutorial will guide you on how to Install and Use iMPlayer on Firestick, Fire TV, and Android TV/Google TV Box. iMPlayer is recognized as one of the Best IPTV Players available for use, especially with IPTV Services that offer an M3U URL or Xtreme Codes API.

It serves as a valuable addition to other IPTV Players such as TiviMate or IPTV Smarters. Make sure to check with your current IPTV provider to see if they provide access to their M3U URL before proceeding with the steps outlined in this guide. This information can typically be found in your welcome email, support documents, or online discussion boards that most IPTV services offer to their subscribers.

There are both premium and free versions available for iMPlayer. TROYPOINT highly recommends opting for the premium account for a significantly enhanced experience. The premium version offers exclusive features such as Recording, Adding channels to Favorites, Catch-up, and more.

As with most IPTV players, utilizing the premium version is the way to go to unlock the app’s full potential.

iMPlayer Setup

After installing the iMPlayer application on your device, you will need to go through the setup process. Follow our short guide below for setting up iMPlayer with your preferred IPTV service. If you need an IPTV service, a simple search on YouTube or Google will provide you with hundreds of services to choose from.

1. On the home screen of iMPlayer, click Add Playlist.

2. Once on this screen, you can either log in with an M3U URL or Xtreme Codes API.

Because M3U URLs are often long to type, we recommend using an API or Xtream Code if applicable. Most M3U URLs require entering your service username and password, typically indicated within the URL as “username=xxxx” & password=xxxx”. Input your username and password accordingly.

Here’s an example of an M3U URL structure: http://liveiptvservice.org:86/get.php?username=xxxx&password=xxxx&type=m3u_plus&output=ts

3. In this example, we are connecting our IPTV account with iMPlayer using the Xtreme Codes API. For Xtreme Codes API, hover over and click Use XC Portal Login API in the upper right.

4. Enter all your account information and click Add & Connect.

5. Wait for the connection to your IPTV service to fully load.

6. If this message appears, just click Close.

7. Click Close again.

8. That’s it! You have successfully set up iMPlayer with your IPTV service.

Important Note: Many features within iMPlayer are unavailable in the free version.

If you attempt adding channels to Favorites in the free version, you will receive a prompt message.

For those opting for the free version, press the back button on your remote to continue using iMPlayer.

After successfully installing iMPlayer, you’ll encounter its unique interface tailored for IPTV services.
