What to buy if you’re starting from scratch

Plug any of these into your TV and you’re ready to go. No expensive smart TV required.

Best Overall

Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max

~$60

Plug into any TV’s HDMI port. TiViMate works perfectly on it, and setup takes under 5 minutes. The best all-around choice.

Best for Apple Users

Apple TV 4K

~$130

Premium experience with a polished interface. IPTV Smarters Pro and GSE Smart IPTV both work great. Ideal if you’re already in the Apple ecosystem.

Best Budget

Fire TV Stick Lite

~$30

Same Fire OS as the 4K Max, works fine for HD streams. Great pick if you don’t need 4K or want to spend as little as possible.

Free — you already have it

If your TV runs Android TV or Google TV (Sony, TCL, NVIDIA Shield, Chromecast GTV), just install TiViMate from the Play Store. You’re set.
