The TV in your pocket
IPTV on Android phones, tablets and boxes
India is an Android country, and your phone is the easiest place to start. Use it to test your connection before you touch the TV.

Check your Android version
Under Settings, then About phone. A reasonably up-to-date version will run most players without trouble.
Install from Google Play
Install the player we name. Please avoid APK files from websites you do not know, as they can carry malware.
Enter your login
Copy and paste from our WhatsApp message instead of typing. It avoids the most common mistakes.
Play something for two minutes
Try a live channel over Wi-Fi. If it runs smoothly, you know that your login and your internet are fine.
Know your device
Phone, tablet or box: what changes
Phone
Best for travel, a hostel or a quick look at the score. Casting to a TV works in many apps if both are on the same Wi-Fi.
Tablet
A good second screen in the kitchen or the bedroom. It is also handy for children, though you may want to set a PIN on adult categories.
Android TV box
Connects to any TV with HDMI. Choose a certified box with Google Play. Unbranded “fully loaded” boxes can be unsafe, so we advise against them.
Watching on mobile data
It will work, but video uses a lot of data. On a daily data pack, an hour or two can use up your whole allowance. These are rough guides, and they vary by channel and app.
- Wi-Fi first, whenever you can get it
- Choose a lower quality, if your app offers one
- Check how much you have used in your phone’s settings
| Quality | Rough data per hour |
|---|---|
| Standard definition | About 1 GB |
| HD | About 3 GB |
| 4K, where available | About 7 GB or more |
