Quick answer: to set up IPTV, install an IPTV player on your device, choose Login with Xtream Codes API, and enter the username, password and server URL from your TrendyScreen activation message. MAG and some Smart TV apps use a portal URL or MAC address instead. Choose your device below for the exact steps.
What you need before you start
- Your login details — from your TrendyScreen activation message, or a free trial. Where to find them.
- An IPTV player app — IPTV Smarters Pro, TiviMate, XCIPTV, Smarters Player Lite… Each guide says which one fits your device.
- A stable internet connection — at least 16 Mbps for HD, 30 Mbps or more for Full HD and 4K. Ethernet is better than Wi-Fi.
Xtream Codes, M3U or portal: which login do I use?
| Login type | What you enter | Used on |
|---|---|---|
| Xtream Codes | Username, password, server URL | Firestick, Android, Apple, Windows, Mac, Shield, Google TV, Formuler |
| M3U link | One long playlist address | VLC, IBO Player, HOT IPTV, Smart TV playlist apps |
| Portal (MAC) | Portal URL, linked to the box’s MAC address | MAG boxes, Formuler MyTVOnline, STB Emulator |
Xtream Codes is the best choice wherever it is available: it loads live TV, movies, series and the TV guide in one go.

Which device should I use?
If you are buying a device for IPTV, a Fire TV Stick 4K or 4K Max is the best value, and NVIDIA Shield TV is the most powerful. Our streaming device comparison explains the choice. Already set up but something is wrong? Go to IPTV troubleshooting.
Setup questions
How do I set up IPTV?
Install an IPTV player on your device (for example IPTV Smarters Pro), choose the Xtream Codes login, and enter the username, password and server URL from your TrendyScreen activation message. MAG boxes use a portal URL instead. Pick your device above for the exact steps.
Which device is easiest to set up?
Android TV, Google TV and NVIDIA Shield: the apps are in Google Play, so setup takes about five minutes. Firestick needs one extra step (the Downloader app) and is still very easy.
Do I need a different subscription for each device?
No. One subscription can be added to all your devices; you watch on one at a time. MAG and other MAC-based setups are tied to one box.
Can TrendyScreen set it up for me?
Yes — message us on WhatsApp and we guide you through every step on your device, at no extra cost.
