The player decides how IPTV feels day to day: how fast the guide is, whether catch up and recording work, and how easy it is with a remote. The best choice depends mainly on your device, then on which extras you want.
Roundups in this section pick the best player for Firestick, Android TV, Google TV, Apple TV, iPhone, iPad, Samsung, LG and Windows or Mac, along with the best free players and the best ones for a TV guide, multiview and recording. Comparison guides settle the questions people search for, such as TiviMate vs IPTV Smarters, IBO Player vs IBO Player Pro, Smarters Lite vs Pro, iMPlayer vs TiviMate and Fire TV vs Google TV.
All facts come from each app's own store listing or website. Prices change often, so we point you to the store rather than quoting a number that may be out of date.
