How to choose

There is no wrong choice here, because your channels don’t depend on the app. Try the one that runs on more of your devices first, and keep the other as a backup.

Cost and setup

Both install in a few minutes and take the same login, so trying one costs nothing but time. iMPlayer and TiviMate charge a fee to the developer, separate from any IPTV plan. Moving between them later means signing in again and rebuilding favorites; your channels stay the same.

FAQ

Questions people ask us

Not covered here? Send it on WhatsApp and a person on the support desk will answer, any hour of the day.

Will I lose anything by switching?

Only your favorites and app settings, which live in each app. The channels, guide and on-demand library come from your login and appear in either app.

Do I need new hardware?

No. Both run on devices you probably already own; check the platform list for each.

Which is better, iMPlayer or TiviMate?

Neither wins outright. Both play the same login, so pick the one that runs best on your main device and keep the other as a backup.

Can I use iMPlayer and TiviMate together?

Yes. Install both and sign in with the same login; just keep to your plan’s connection count when both play at once.
