Samsung and LG Smart TVs
Samsung (Tizen) and LG (webOS) TVs use their own app stores, so the choice of IPTV player apps is a little smaller than on Android. Popular options work well, but some Smart TV players ask for a small one-off activation fee after their trial — this is paid to the app maker, not to us. We'll tell you which app suits your TV model best.
Android TV and Google TV
TVs running Android TV or Google TV (many Sony, TCL, Hisense and Philips models) have access to Google Play and the widest range of player apps. Setup is the same as on an Android box.
When a Fire TV Stick is the better option
Older Smart TVs can be slow or may no longer receive app updates. If your TV struggles, plugging in a Fire TV Stick is usually the quickest fix — follow our Firestick setup guide. Either way, try it with a free 24-hour test first.
