Installation guide

Set up UK IPTV Hub on any device.

Most people are watching within about fifteen minutes. Follow the steps for your device below, and message us if you get stuck — we will walk you through it personally.

Before you start

Four things to have ready.

Have all of these in hand and the setup takes minutes rather than an evening.

  • A stable connection of at least 8 Mbps (10 Mbps+ for 4K)
  • Your UK IPTV Hub credentials — sent in chat after payment
  • A player app: free TiviMate or OTT Navigator works best
  • Your device connected to the same network you will watch on

Choose the right player

TiviMate and OTT Navigator are both free with every UK IPTV Hub plan and are what we recommend for the smoothest experience. Either one handles the channel list, channel icons and the full EPG out of the box.

Use the Xtream Codes option wherever you are offered it — it fills in the channel list and the guide in one step.

Quick fixes worth trying first.

  • Restart the app and your router, then try again
  • Test your speed — aim for 8 Mbps or more, wired if possible
  • Allow a minute for large playlists to sync before switching
Still seeing an error?

“Authorization” or “connection” errors are almost always ISP blocking.

Some internet providers filter streaming servers. Installing a VPN routes around the block and fixes it in the vast majority of cases.
