IPTV on Apple TV

If you have an IPTV provider subscription, you can install any of the IPTV Player apps from the App Store on Apple TV and stream the content. The Apple TV 4th generation and higher models have an in-built App Store to install the IPTV Players. If you use Apple TV 3rd Generation and lower models, you need to screen mirror the IPTV Player app on Apple TV from your iPhone or iPad.

Remember that the IPTV players will not offer video content. They’ll just act as a medium to watch live TV channels and VODs offered by the IPTV Provider. You need to add the M3U link, Xtream Codes, or any other login credentials on the player to load and stream the content. Get a subscription from a reliable IPTV service and refer to the guide below to stream IPTV content on Apple TV.

Pre-Requisites:

  • Connect the Apple TV box to your TV and set it up.
  • Get an M3U URL and other login credentials from an IPTV service provider.
  • A proper internet connection.
