The onn. 4K and onn. 4K Pro are Google TV boxes sold at Walmart. Because they run Google TV, the most popular IPTV player, TiviMate, installs straight from the Play Store. No side loading, no workarounds.
What you need
- An onn. 4K or 4K Pro, connected to your TV and your internet.
- The login from your IPTV provider: a server address, a username and a password (called Xtream Codes).
- About 10 minutes.
Install and sign in
- Open Google Play Store, search TiviMate, install it.
- Open TiviMate, choose Add playlist, then Xtream Codes.
- Type the server, username and password exactly. Capital letters matter.
- Give the playlist a name and press Next. Channels load first, the TV guide a few minutes later.
