The UK trial checklist
British viewers care about a few specific things. Test each of these and you will know within an evening whether TrendyScreen suits you:
| Check | What “good” looks like |
|---|---|
| UK channel group | The channels you watch daily are there and open in a second or two. |
| HD and 4K versions | The HD version looks sharp on your TV; 4K plays smoothly on a 4K device. |
| Football at peak time | A live game or sports channel plays at 3pm on a Saturday or during an evening kick-off without constant buffering. |
| TV guide | “Now” and “next” show for the main UK channels — see EPG explained. |
| Catch-up | On channels that support it, yesterday’s programmes appear in the guide. |
| Films and box sets | You can find and play the titles you search for. |
| Support | A real person answers your WhatsApp question quickly. |
Best devices for a UK trial
The Fire TV Stick 4K Max gives the most reliable trial and plugs into any TV, including Sky Glass. Samsung and LG owners can test with a TV app such as Smart IPTV or SmartOne IPTV. Whatever you use, a wired connection makes the football test fairer.
Before you start: one UK rule
Watching live TV in the UK needs a TV licence, whichever way it reaches your screen. That applies to a trial as well as to a plan. More on UK rules in is IPTV legal in the UK?

UK free trial questions
How do I get a free IPTV trial in the UK?
Tap “Request my free trial”, which opens WhatsApp with a ready message. Add your device — Firestick, Samsung, LG, Sky Glass with a stick, Android — and we send your test login in minutes.
Do I need a card for the UK trial?
No. There is no payment and no card. When the trial ends, it simply stops.
Can I test live football during the trial?
Yes, if a game is on during your test period. That is the best test you can do: it shows how the service behaves when everyone is watching. If no game is on, test a busy sports news channel in the evening.
Does the trial work on Sky Glass?
Sky Glass has no IPTV apps of its own, so plug a Fire TV Stick into one of its HDMI ports and use the trial there. Our Sky Glass guide shows how.
What happens after the trial?
Nothing, unless you choose a plan. If you do, we can activate it on the same app, so your setup stays as it is.
