IPTV Smarters Pro vs TiviMate: Which to Pick

Short answer: Use TiviMate if you are on Android TV or Firestick and want the best interface. Use IPTV Smarters Pro if you are on iPhone, Windows, or want a free option that works across multiple platforms. Both work with WebflowMT credentials.

Quick Summary

TiviMate is purpose-built for TV remotes. It is fast, has a clean grid layout, and the 14-day program guide is the best in any IPTV app. The catch: Android and Firestick only, and DVR requires a one-time $35 fee.

IPTV Smarters Pro runs on more platforms: Android, iOS, Windows, and some smart TVs. It is free, supports VOD browsing well, and is easier to set up for beginners. The interface is busier and slower on older hardware.

User Interface

TiviMate is designed for TV remotes from the ground up. Navigating channels with arrow keys is smooth, and the channel list loads fast. The grid EPG shows what is on now and what is coming up across multiple channels at once.

IPTV Smarters Pro has more features on screen at once, which makes it feel cluttered on a 55-inch TV. It works better when you are navigating with a touch screen or mouse rather than a remote. On older Android boxes with 1-2GB of RAM, it can be noticeably slower to open and switch channels.

Device Compatibility

This is where the decision is usually made. TiviMate runs on Android TV and Firestick only. If you are on an iPhone, Windows PC, or a non-Android smart TV, TiviMate is not an option.

IPTV Smarters Pro covers Android, iOS, Windows, and some smart TVs. If your household uses a mix of devices, Smarters Pro means everyone can use the same app and credentials setup.

Setting Up Your WebflowMT Subscription in Each App

Both apps support Xtream Codes API, which is the easiest way to connect your WebflowMT subscription. Your credentials email contains three things: server URL, username, and password.

In TiviMate: Open the app, tap "Add Playlist," select "Xtream Codes," and enter your server URL, username, and password. The server URL goes in without any path suffix.

In IPTV Smarters Pro: Tap "Add New User," select "Login via Xtream Codes API," and enter the same three details. You can also use the M3U URL option if you prefer.

Find your credentials anytime at My Account or on the device setup guides page.

EPG (Program Guide)

TiviMate's program guide is the reason most power users pay for the premium tier. It shows a 14-day grid, loads fast, and you can browse tomorrow's schedule in seconds. Scheduling a recording from the EPG takes two button presses.

IPTV Smarters Pro has an EPG but it is slower to load and shows less detail per channel. For casual viewers who just want to know what is on now, it is fine. For anyone who plans their viewing around a schedule, TiviMate is a clear step up.

Price

IPTV Smarters Pro is free. There is a premium tier but most users never need it.

TiviMate has a free tier for basic use. TiviMate Premium costs about $35 as a one-time purchase and adds DVR recording, multi-account support, and parental controls. If you just want to watch channels, the free tier of TiviMate is enough.

Which One Should You Use?

Use TiviMate if you are on Android TV or Firestick and you watch live TV regularly. The interface is better for couch viewing and the EPG alone is worth the app cost for anyone who watches sports.

Use IPTV Smarters Pro if you are on iPhone, Windows, or you want a free option that covers multiple devices with one app. It handles VOD (movies and series) better than TiviMate.
