Start from the device in front of you, not from the download. Platform compatibility decides everything else on this page: the wrong guide wastes an evening, the right one takes twenty minutes.

Firestick and Fire TV

Fire TV is Android-based, so TiviMate can run on it — but the install path goes through the Downloader app and a verified APK, not a normal store listing. The Firestick guide covers device preparation, the install permission, Downloader, the APK itself, and the first playlist and EPG setup.

Android TV and Google TV

The platform TiviMate is designed for. Install from Google Play or a verified APK, add an authorized playlist, confirm the channel list loads, then configure EPG separately and test playback one layer at a time so each failure points at its cause.

Samsung TV

Samsung Smart TVs run Tizen, not Android TV, so the Android APK cannot install natively. Either connect an external Android TV device over HDMI and run TiviMate there, or use a Samsung-compatible IPTV app with the same authorized playlist.

Roku

Roku runs its own operating system and installs apps only through its store. Stay on Roku with a store-listed player that supports the playlist format, or attach an Android TV device when the TiviMate interface itself is required.

Windows and PC

There is no native Windows build. Use a Windows-compatible player for the same playlist and EPG concepts, or keep TiviMate on Android TV hardware rather than forcing the Android package onto a desktop.

Apple TV

Apple TV runs tvOS with its own App Store. Choose a tvOS player that supports the playlist or authentication format, or run TiviMate on an external Android TV device connected to the same television.
