Open the App Store on Apple TV

From the Apple TV home screen, open the App Store. Make sure your Apple TV is signed into your Apple ID.

Install an IPTV Player

Search for and install one of these recommended IPTV players:

  1. IPTV Smarters — most popular, clean interface
  2. GSE Smart IPTV — feature-rich, supports EPG
  3. Xtream IPTV — lightweight and fast

Enter Your ZentivoIPTV Credentials

  1. Open the IPTV player you installed
  2. Select "Add Playlist" or "Login"
  3. Choose Xtream Codes API login method
  4. Enter the Server URL, Username, and Password from your activation email
  5. Tap "Add" or "Login"

Typing Made Easier

Use the Apple TV Remote app on your iPhone to type your credentials — much faster than navigating the on-screen keyboard with the Siri Remote.

Stream in 4K Dolby Vision

Channels and VOD content load automatically. Apple TV 4K delivers the best possible picture quality with 4K HDR and Dolby Atmos support where available. Use the Siri Remote to browse categories and switch channels.

Add an IPTV Channel to Roku

Roku's Channel Store has limited IPTV apps. The recommended method is to add an M3U-compatible player:

  1. On your Roku, go to Streaming Channels > Search Channels
  2. Search for "IPTV Smarters" or "Smart IPTV"
  3. If available, select Add Channel and install

Alternative: Screen Mirror from Your Phone

If no IPTV app is available in the Roku Channel Store, use screen mirroring — it works perfectly for IPTV:

  1. Make sure your Roku and phone are on the same Wi-Fi network
  2. On Roku: Settings > System > Screen Mirroring > set to "Always Allow"
  3. Android: Pull down notification shade > tap "Cast" or "Smart View" > select your Roku
  4. iPhone: Install the Roku app from the App Store, then use AirPlay (Roku OS 10+ supports AirPlay natively)
  5. Open ZentivoIPTV on your phone — the stream appears on your TV

Enter Credentials & Stream

If using a Roku IPTV app: enter your server URL, username, and password from the activation email. If mirroring: log into the IPTV app on your phone and the picture mirrors to Roku automatically.

Best Roku Alternative

For the best IPTV experience on a Roku TV, plug an Amazon Firestick into a spare HDMI port — Firestick has the widest IPTV app selection. See our Firestick guide.

Open the App Store

On your iPhone or iPad, open the App Store.

Install IPTV Smarters or GSE Smart IPTV

Search for "IPTV Smarters" or "GSE Smart IPTV". Tap Get to download and install. Both are free to use.

Log In

  1. Open the app and select "Xtream Codes API"
  2. Enter your Server URL, Username, and Password
  3. Tap "Add User" — channels load instantly

Watch or AirPlay to TV

Watch directly on your iPhone/iPad, or use AirPlay to stream to an Apple TV or AirPlay-compatible Smart TV. Tap the AirPlay icon in the player to cast to your TV.

Apple TV & Roku IPTV FAQ

Apple TV 3rd generation and earlier don't support third-party apps from the App Store, so you can't install an IPTV player directly. Your options are: AirPlay from an iPhone/iPad, or connect a Firestick to your TV instead. Apple TV HD (4th gen) and Apple TV 4K fully support IPTV apps.
Roku has strict content policies for its Channel Store, which limits the availability of IPTV apps. Screen mirroring from your phone is the easiest workaround, or use a Firestick plugged into a spare HDMI port for the best experience. Both options give you full access to all 10,000+ channels.
Yes. Apple TV supports VPN apps directly from the App Store (tvOS 17+). For older tvOS versions, configure the VPN on your router instead — this covers all devices on your network including Apple TV. Popular options include ExpressVPN and NordVPN, both available on the Apple TV App Store.
AirPlay streams at up to 1080p with minimal latency — plenty good for most viewing. However, a native app on Apple TV delivers 4K HDR with lower latency and better reliability. We recommend the native app whenever possible and AirPlay as a convenient backup.
Every ZentivoIPTV plan supports up to 5 simultaneous connections. Install on all your devices — Apple TV in the living room, Roku in the bedroom, iPhone on the go — all streaming at the same time on one subscription.
