How do I install TiviMate on Firestick?
To install TiviMate on a Firestick, enable Apps from Unknown Sources in Developer Options, install the Downloader app from the Amazon Appstore, use it to download TiviMate, then install and open it. Finally, add your M3U or Xtream Codes playlist to load your channels.
TiviMate is one of the most popular IPTV players for Fire TV because of its polished guide (EPG), recordings, and multi-playlist support. It isn't in the Amazon Appstore, so it is installed with the Downloader app — a standard, safe sideloading method when you use the official package.
Once installed, TiviMate is playlist-agnostic: it works with any M3U URL or Xtream Codes login you own. The free version covers core playback; TiviMate Premium unlocks recordings, multiple playlists, and the custom EPG. Keep the Fire TV on Ethernet for the smoothest guide loading and playback.
Install TiviMate step by step
- Allow unknown apps. Go to Settings → My Fire TV → Developer Options and turn on Apps from Unknown Sources for the Downloader app.
- Install Downloader. From the Fire TV search, install the free Downloader app by AFTVnews from the Amazon Appstore.
- Download TiviMate. Open Downloader and enter the official TiviMate download URL, then let the APK download.
- Install and open. Select Install when prompted, then open TiviMate and accept the on-screen permissions.
- Add your playlist. Choose Add Playlist, enter your M3U URL or Xtream Codes login, and let TiviMate load channels and EPG.
Good to know

- TiviMate Premium adds recordings, multiple playlists, and custom EPG
