IrishIPTV app
Built for our service, with Irish channels grouped, catch-up and a clean guide. Free and set up in five minutes.
Your IrishIPTV login works in almost every IPTV player, so the right app comes down to your device and how you like to watch. We compare the best IPTV apps for Firestick, Android, smart TVs, Apple and computers, show you how to log in to each one, and flag the apps to avoid.
For Firestick and Android, the best IPTV app for most people is our free IrishIPTV app, with TiviMate as the top choice for power users. On Samsung and LG smart TVs, IBO Player and Smart IPTV work best. On Apple TV, iPhone and iPad, choose IPTVX, iPlayTV or UHF. On a computer, VLC is free and simple. Your IrishIPTV login works in all of them.
Every app below works with IrishIPTV. Prices are set by the app developers and change, so check the store before you pay.

Every player uses one or more of these. We send you all of them on WhatsApp when you join.
A server address, username and password. The best option: it loads live TV, films, series and the guide automatically.
One long link with every channel. Works in almost any player, including VLC and Kodi, but films and the guide need extra setup.
Your device's ID. Smart TV apps and MAG boxes use it, and we activate the playlist for you.
The TV guide link. Xtream apps add it for you. In Kodi and some M3U players, you paste it yourself.

TiviMate is an Android-only player with the best TV-style guide. The free version plays live TV; Premium adds recording, catch-up and multiple playlists.
TipIn TiviMate, long-press a channel to add it to favourites, then move the Favourites group to the top in Settings, Playlists.
IPTV Smarters Pro is free on Android and Firestick and on Windows. On Apple, the version is called Smarters Player Lite.
TipIf the app shows "invalid login", check the URL starts with http:// and includes the port number if we sent one.
IBO Player is the go-to app for Samsung and LG smart TVs. It uses your TV's MAC address, so there is nothing to type with the remote.
TipKeep the photo of your MAC and device key. You will need them if you ever change TV or reinstall the app.
Kodi is a free media centre for computers, Android and Firestick. It plays IPTV through the official PVR IPTV Simple Client add-on.
TipOnly use the official Kodi repository. Avoid third-party "builds" and add-ons, which are often unsafe and unreliable.
VLC is the free player that runs everywhere. It is the quickest way to test your M3U link on a computer.
TipIf VLC buffers, open Tools, Preferences, Input and Codecs, and raise the network caching value to 3000 ms.
Whichever app you choose, these features make the biggest difference day to day.
A grid guide like normal TV makes it easy to see what is on now and next across Irish channels.

An app that is updated keeps working when devices and systems change.
Five quick questions point you to the best player for your home.
The device decides most of it. Smart TVs use store apps with MAC activation, Firestick and Android have the widest choice, and Apple devices use App Store players.
For the whole family, pick a simple app with a clear guide, such as our app or IPTV Smarters. Power users love TiviMate.
Choose TiviMate Premium on Android or a Formuler box with MYTVOnline. Otherwise, catch-up covers most needs.
Look for fast channel switching and multi-view. TiviMate and our app switch quickly on a good connection.
Many players are free. Paid apps add extra features, but your channels are the same in every app.
A good player is just a player: it plays the service you pay for. Be careful with apps that promise more.
