Quick answer

What Is Smarters Player Lite?

Smarters Player Lite is a free media player for IPTV services. Like IPTV Smarters Pro, it doesn't include channels: you sign in with an Xtream Codes login or an M3U link from your provider, and it organizes live TV, movies and series with a TV guide. It is lighter and simpler, which makes it a good fit for phones, tablets, Apple TV and Roku.

Devices That Run Smarters Player Lite

Lite exists because not every device can run the full Pro app. On Apple devices it is the developer's main option, and on Roku it is one of the few IPTV players you can add from the official store.

Supported platforms

  • iPhone and iPad (App Store)
  • Apple TV (App Store on tvOS)
  • Android phones, tablets and TVs (Google Play)
  • Roku (Channel Store); see our Roku guide
