Prime IPTV on Firestick: Setup with TiviMate (2026)

How to set up Prime IPTV on a Firestick

The Firestick is the device most of our customers use, and for good reason: it's cheap, it plugs into any TV, and TiviMate runs beautifully on it. The only slightly fiddly part is allowing apps from outside the Amazon store. After that it's typing three lines.

Step by step

Turn on Developer options

Go to Settings, then My Fire TV, then About. Highlight your device name and press the select button seven times until it says you're a developer. Go back one screen and Developer options now appears.

Install Downloader

From the Home screen open Find, then Search, and type Downloader. Install the orange Downloader app by AFTVnews. It's free.

Allow Downloader to install apps

Back in Settings, My Fire TV, Developer options, open Install unknown apps and switch Downloader to ON.

Install TiviMate

Open Downloader, select the address bar and enter the TiviMate download link we sent with your login. When the file finishes, choose Install, then Done. Delete the installer file when Downloader offers to, it frees up space.

Add your Prime IPTV playlist

Open TiviMate and choose Add playlist, then Xtream Codes. Enter the server URL, username and password exactly as sent, then press Next. TiviMate checks the login and shows the number of channels and movies it found.

Load the TV guide

Press Next again and TiviMate downloads the guide. Give it a minute the first time. When it's done, press the Home button on the remote once and you're on the live guide.

Things that help

Hold the select button on a channel to add it to Favorites. A short Favorites list makes the guide far quicker to use.
In TiviMate settings, under Playlists, set the guide to update once a day.
If the picture stutters, plug the Firestick into the TV's power adapter, not the TV's USB port. Underpowered sticks cause odd glitches.
An Ethernet adapter for Firestick costs around $15 and fixes most Wi-Fi buffering on game nights.

Firestick & Fire TV questions

Is TiviMate free on Firestick?

The basic app is free and plays everything. TiviMate Premium is a small yearly payment to the TiviMate developer and adds catch-up, recording and multiple playlists. It's optional.

Can I use IPTV Smarters instead of TiviMate?

Yes. Install it the same way through Downloader, choose Login with Xtream Codes API, and type the same three details.

Will Amazon block the app?

No. Fire OS lets you install apps from outside the Appstore once you allow it. Fire OS updates sometimes switch the setting back off; if an app stops opening after an update, check Install unknown apps again.
