How to Install the TiviMate IPTV Player
- On Android TV: search for
TiviMatein the Google Play Store on your device and install directly. - On Firestick: install the Downloader app from the Amazon Appstore, enter the TiviMate download link, and install the APK, since TiviMate isn't listed directly in the Amazon Appstore.
- Add your playlist: open TiviMate → "Add playlist" → choose "Xtream Codes" or "M3U URL" → enter the details you received from StreamAussie.
- Set up the EPG: TiviMate usually loads the program guide automatically with your Xtream Codes playlist; if needed, add an external EPG URL via Settings → Program Guide.
- Optional — Premium: the free version works fully for live streaming; TiviMate Premium (paid, separate from your StreamAussie subscription) adds recording, catch-up, multiple playlists and multi-view.
TiviMate IPTV Player: Free or Premium?
The free version of the TiviMate IPTV player is enough to watch live TV with the full TV guide. Premium is an optional upgrade, paid to TiviMate's developer rather than to StreamAussie, and it's worth it if you want to record or catch up on shows.
| Feature | Free | Premium |
|---|---|---|
| Live channels and TV guide | Yes | Yes |
| Xtream Codes and M3U playlists | Yes | Yes |
| Recording live TV | No | Yes |
| Catch-up (watch shows already aired) | No | Yes |
| Multiple playlists | No | Yes |
| Multi-view (several channels on screen) | No | Yes |
| Favourites and custom channel groups | Limited | Yes |
Check the current Premium price inside the app before you buy; it can change. Official listing: TiviMate on Google Play.
Which Devices Run the TiviMate IPTV Player?
TiviMate only runs on Android-based devices. In Australian homes that means:
- Amazon Fire TV: Fire TV Stick and Fire TV Cube, installed with the Downloader app.
- Android TV and Google TV: the Nvidia Shield, Chromecast with Google TV, TCL and Hisense Google TV models, and Android TV boxes, straight from the Google Play Store.
- Android phones and tablets: it installs, but it's designed for TV remotes, so IPTV Smarters Pro is easier on touchscreens.
It doesn't run on Samsung or LG TVs or on Apple TV; our guides for those devices list the best alternatives.
Best TiviMate Settings for Australian Viewers
- Check the TV guide time: if programmes are an hour out, set your device's time zone to your city and use the playlist's EPG time shift if needed. Queensland, WA and the NT don't use daylight saving, which is the usual cause. More in our IPTV EPG guide.
- Update the guide automatically: set the EPG to update when the app starts, so the guide never runs out.
- Hide what you don't watch: hide unused channel groups so the guide stays fast and easy to scroll.
- Buffering? Try switching the stream format between TS and HLS, and use Ethernet where you can. Full steps in fix IPTV buffering.
Questions About TiviMate
Is TiviMate free?
The base version is free and fully usable for live streaming. TiviMate Premium is a separate one-off or annual payment to TiviMate's developers (not to StreamAussie) for extra features like recording, catch-up and multiple playlists.
Does TiviMate work on iPhone or iPad?
No, TiviMate is only available for Android, Android TV and Fire TV. For Apple devices, we recommend our IPTV Smarters Pro guide.
What's the difference from IPTV Smarters Pro?
TiviMate has a more polished, TV-guide-like interface but only works on Android/Fire TV devices. IPTV Smarters Pro works on more platforms, including iOS. See our IPTV Smarters Pro guide for a comparison.
My playlist won't load — what can I do?
Check that your Xtream Codes details (server URL, username, password) exactly match your activation email, then restart the app.
Can TiviMate record live TV?
Yes, with TiviMate Premium and enough storage, such as a USB drive on an Nvidia Shield TV Pro. Recording isn't available in the free version.
Why is the TiviMate TV guide an hour out?
Your device's time zone doesn't match your state, which is common in Queensland, WA and the NT because they don't use daylight saving. Set the time zone to your city or use the EPG time shift; see our IPTV EPG guide.
