What You Need Before You Start

• Any Amazon Firestick or Fire TV: Lite, 4K, 4K Max, Cube or a Fire TV smart TV.
• A home internet connection of about 15 to 20 Mbps per screen.
• Your Mom IPTV login, from a paid plan or a free Mom IPTV trial.
• About five minutes and your Fire TV remote.

Step-by-Step: Install IPTV on Firestick

1. 1From the Fire TV home screen, open Find, search for Downloader and install it. It's free in the Amazon Appstore.

3. 3Open Downloader and type the player link our support team sends with your login.
4. 4Install the player when Downloader finishes, then delete the installer file to free up space.
5. 5Open the player and choose Login with Xtream Codes API.
6. 6Enter the username, password and server URL from your welcome message. Your channels, movies and TV guide load in about a minute.

Tip: hold the Home button on your remote and pin the player to the top row so it opens in one click.

Which Player Is Best on Firestick?

TiviMate is the favorite for living-room TV. Its guide looks like a cable box, channel switching is quick, and favorites are easy to manage. The free version covers the basics; the paid upgrade adds recording and multiple playlists. Our TiviMate setup guide shows every screen.

IPTV Smarters Pro is the easiest to start with. The menus are simple, and movies and series are laid out like a streaming app. If you're new to IPTV, start here with our IPTV Smarters login walkthrough and try TiviMate later.

Keep Your Firestick Running Smoothly

• Restart the Firestick once a week from Settings, then My Fire TV, then Restart. It clears memory and fixes most slowdowns.
• Clear the player's cache from Settings, then Applications, if the guide starts to lag.
• Use the 5 GHz band on your router, or an Ethernet adapter for the Firestick, for big live events. More fixes are in our IPTV buffering fix guide.
• Keep at least 1 GB of storage free; full storage is a common cause of freezing.

Which Firestick Should You Buy for IPTV?

• Firestick Lite: the cheapest option and fine for HD on one TV, but it can feel slow with very large channel lists.
• Firestick 4K: the sweet spot for most homes, with a faster processor and Wi-Fi that copes better with busy evenings.
• Firestick 4K Max: the quickest stick, with the best Wi-Fi. Worth it if your router is far from the TV.
• Fire TV Cube: the fastest Fire TV device and the only one with a built-in Ethernet port, ideal for live sports.

Already have an older Firestick? It will still run Mom IPTV. Clearing storage and restarting it weekly keeps it responsive. Setting up another screen? See Mom IPTV setup for every device.
