How to install any IPTV app on Firestick
Firestick apps aren't in the Amazon store, so you sideload them with the free Downloader app. The method is identical for every app — only the code changes:
- From the Fire TV home screen, open Search, type Downloader, and install it.
- Go to Settings → My Fire TV → Developer Options. If you can't see it, open About and click your device name 7 times to unlock it.
- In Developer Options, open Install unknown apps and turn Downloader ON.
- Open Downloader, type the code for the app you want (below), press Go, let it download, then Install.
That's it — pick your app, use its code, done. WizTV's Firestick installation guide walks the same steps with screenshots and a short video, and our IPTV on Firestick guide covers the wider setup.
The Firestick apps compared
| App | Cost | Downloader code | Login | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IPTV Smarters Pro | Free | 6468112 | Xtream Codes | The familiar, universal choice |
| XtremeHD Player | Free | 5976294 | Xtream (servers built in) | WizTV subscribers who want it pre-set |
| IBO Player Pro | ≈ €8 lifetime · 7-day trial | 481220 | MAC + Device Key + M3U | A premium interface with extras |
| Bob Player | ≈ €8/yr · €13 lifetime | 815778 | MAC + M3U | A clean paid alternative |
| Hot Player | €5.99/yr · €14.99 lifetime · 30-day trial | 395800 | MAC + M3U | Longest free trial before you pay |
The paid apps' fees go to the app maker and are separate from your IPTV subscription — and each gives you a free trial, so you can test before paying.
Best all-rounder: IPTV Smarters Pro
For most Firestick owners, Smarters Pro is the sensible default — free, reliable, and the one most guides assume you're using. It logs in with an Xtream username and password. One tip that saves a lot of grief: the server URL must start with http://, not https:// — that single letter is the most common reason a correct login says "details wrong". Full walkthrough in our IPTV Smarters Pro guide.
Best for a proper guide: TiViMate
If you want IPTV to feel like a high-end box, TiViMate has the best programme guide of any player, plus recording and multi-view. The catch is that the good features need the cheap TiViMate Premium tier — but on a Firestick it's the enthusiast's favourite for a reason.
Free and pre-configured: XtremeHD Player
WizTV's own free app is handy if you're a subscriber: it uses an Xtream login with the servers already built in, so there's less to type. Install it with code 5976294 and pick a server from the list — just ask support which one suits your location, since the wrong server is the usual cause of buffering.
Paid options: IBO, Bob and Hot
If you fancy a fancier interface, the paid apps are worth the few euros. They lock to your device via a MAC address (IBO also uses a Device Key), which you register on the app's own site, then paste your M3U link. All three come with a free trial, so there's no rush to pay.
Which should you pick?
If you want simple and free, install IPTV Smarters Pro (code 6468112) and get on with it. On WizTV and want less setup? XtremeHD (5976294). Want the best guide and recording? TiViMate. That's genuinely the whole decision.
Whichever you choose, the app is only as good as the stream behind it — the smoothest player still stutters on an overloaded server. That reliability is the part WizTV is built to handle, whatever app you point at it. For the wider comparison across every device, see our best IPTV player roundup.
