This is the address to the official APK file which we use for IPTV Smarters Pro installation from WHMCS Smarters team, the rightful owner of IPTV Smarters Pro.

Now hit Go.

2-Accept TOS.

3-Go ahead with Xtream Codes API as its the easiest way of entering a streaming line details.

4-Let's say the imaginary M3U url below is your IPTV streaming line that you want to install on IPTV Smarters Pro. I said imaginary so you take it as a reference only.

http://provider.com:8443/get.php?username=user1&password=pass2&type=m3u_plus&output=ts

Then the above URL details is added to the app the following way:

Any Name: Name the list anything you like.

Username: should be user1, it's actually the value after "username=", so enter whatever value you see in your URL.

Password: should be pass2, it's actually the value after "password=", so enter whatever value you see in your URL.

http://url_here.com:port : according to the url above, it should be http://provider.com:8443

I insist, above is just a reference.
