What IPTV Smarters Pro is
IPTV Smarters Pro is a media player made for IPTV subscriptions. It shows live TV with a TV guide, a movie section and a series section, and supports catch-up on channels that offer it. It does not contain any channels: everything you see comes from the login you add. That is why it works with TrendyScreen on every device.

How to log in with Xtream Codes
Open the app and add a user
On first launch accept the terms. On the “Add user” screen pick Login with Xtream Codes API.
Type your details
- Any name: for example “TrendyScreen”.
- Username and Password: exactly as in your message (case-sensitive).
- URL: the server address, including
http://and the port.
Add the user and wait for the lists
Select Add user. Smarters downloads the live channels, movies, series and TV guide. On a slow device this can take a minute the first time.
Open Live TV
Choose Live TV, pick a country group, then a channel. Press OK twice for full screen.
Prefer an M3U link? Choose Load your playlist or file/URL instead and paste the M3U link we sent. Xtream Codes is better, though: it loads the TV guide, movies and series automatically. Why Xtream beats M3U.
The settings that matter
| Setting | Where | What to choose |
|---|---|---|
| Stream format | Settings > Stream Format | MPEGTS (.ts) first; HLS (.m3u8) if a channel stutters |
| Player | Settings > Player Selection | Built-in player; try VLC or MX Player if a channel will not open |
| TV guide time | Settings > Time Format / EPG time shift | Shift the guide if programme times are off |
| Parental control | Settings > Parental Control | Set a PIN and lock the channel groups children should not open |
| Automation | Settings > Automation | Auto-update channels and EPG daily |
Getting more out of Smarters
- Favourites: long-press a channel and add it to favourites so your daily channels are one click away.
- Search: use the magnifier in Live TV, Movies or Series instead of scrolling.
- Catch-up: on channels with a clock icon, open Catch Up to play programmes from the past days.
- Multi-screen: on capable devices, watch up to four channels at once (each uses part of your connection).
- Several users: add a second login for a family member and switch between them from the home screen.
