What’s IPTV Smarters Pro?
IPTV Smarters or. IPTV Smarters Pro is an IPTV player that lets you stream content from IPTV subscriptions. It is also an IPTV management service, similar to Smart IPTV.
However, unlike Smart IPTV, which requires a one-time activation fee, IPTV Smarters is free (there is a paid version, too, with additional features, but all the essential services are free). IPTV Smarters Pro does not provide any IPTV services. It does not host any channels or have any playlists of its own.
You will need to use the login credentials of another IPTV service. You must already have an IPTV service provider subscription to use IPTV Smarters on FireStick and other devices.

Attention, FireStick Users!
Governments and ISPs constantly monitor your online activity, and accessing copyrighted content on your Fire TV Stick could lead to serious trouble. Currently, your IP 197.253.207.8 is visible to everyone. I strongly recommend getting the best FireStick VPN to mask your IP address and securely stream your favorites.
I personally use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure VPN available. Not only is it easy to install on any device, it comes with a risk-free 30-day money-back guarantee. Plus, if you’re not 100% satisfied, you can always get a refund. ExpressVPN is currently also offering a whopping 3 extra months free on their annual plan!
Here are reasons why using a VPN at all times is essential.

Is IPTV Smarters Pro Safe & Legal?
Unfortunately, IPTV Smarters Pro is unavailable in many reputed app stores like Amazon and Google Play, complicating its safety status. Therefore, practicing caution and conducting research before using such apps is imperative.
That said, VirusTotal didn’t detect any issues when I tested the APK file for IPTV Smarters Pro. Have a look:
Next, the app’s legality is also tricky. Again, the unavailability of reputed app stores affects an application’s legal standing. App Stores conduct thorough research on all the available apps and ensure they’re entirely safe and legal. However, with third-party apps, you can’t be too sure.
So, if you want to use IPTV Smarters Pro, don’t forget to pair it with a VPN. While streaming through unofficial platforms, a VPN like ExpressVPN will always protect you.

How to Use IPTV Smarters on FireStick
Before you launch IPTV Smaters, create a shortcut for easy access. Go to IPTV Smarters. Then, Press the Menu button on the remote (3-line button). Next, click Move on the screen in the popup menu on the bottom right. Now, you can move the icon to the top shelf.

This is the window that you reach next. You must start by clicking ADD USER in the top-right corner or ADD NEW USER in the middle of the screen.
There are two ways to sign in to your IPTV service on IPTV Smarters
- Load Your Playlist or File/URL
- Login with Xtream Codes API
Load Your Playlist or File/URL
Your IPTV service MUST support the M3U playlist for you to use with IPTV Smarters. Not all the IPTV services do.
Once you purchase an IPTV subscription plan, the service provider typically emails you the login details. This email also contains the M3U Playlist and EPG links. If you haven’t received the links, you may contact the service provider.
When you choose the Load Your Playlist or File/URL option, the app may ask for permission. Click Allow.
Here is the screen where you can enter the M3U playlist link. In the Playlist Type section, choose the M3U URL radio box. In the Playlist Name section, type any name you like. Next, in the File/URL section, type the M3U URL. Then, click the Add User button.
Login with Xtream Codes API
M3U playlist URLs are often long and difficult to type into the app using the FireStick remote. Therefore, I recommend using the Xtream Codes API instead. They are shorter and easier to type. However, Xtream Codes are no longer working, and I am unsure if the API Codes will work.
