In this article, I’ll show you how to install Smart IPTV on FireStick, New FireStick 4K, and New FireStick 4K Max. Also, I’ll cover how to get the best out of Smart IPTV via your Fire TV.
What’s Smart IPTV (SIPTV)
Smart IPTV (or SIPTV) is a popular IPTV player that lets you stream content through various IPTV services. Smart IPTV does not host any content. As I said, it is an IPTV player. You must integrate it with an IPTV content provider or IPTV service.
SIPTV is a paid service. It costs a one-time activation fee of 5.49 Euros (approximately $6.00) per device. Furthermore, to activate the service, you will be asked to provide the MAC address of your device. Mac address is unique, and it can be traced back to you. If that sounds like a deal-breaker or you would rather opt for a free IPTV player, there are many other IPTV players you can try.
Attention FireStick Users: Read before you continue
Your government and ISP are probably monitoring your streaming activities using your IP address 23.98.142.186 (exposed to all). You may get into serious legal trouble for streaming copyrighted videos on FireStick.
I strongly recommend getting a trusted VPN for FireStick to hide your IP address and protect your online identity.
I use ExpressVPN on all my devices as it is the most secure, fastest, and easy-to-use VPN. It comes with an unconditional 30-day money-back guarantee, and you get 3 free months with the yearly plan.
Don't miss out on the peace of mind and online security ExpressVPN provides.

Is Smart IPTV Safe?
Smart IPTV is a third-party app not found on the Amazon App Store. Thus, no authoritative proof says SIPTV is 100% safe. At the same time, no report says otherwise.
At FireStickHow, we don’t have the authority to mark Smart IPTV as safe or unsafe. I tested its APK file on Virus Total. And thankfully, it doesn’t compromise safety.
Is Smart IPTV Legal?
Yes! Smart IPTV is 100% legal as it’s just a tool that lets you integrate the IPTV service that you own. This service doesn’t provide access to any channels. You must upload a file or enter an m3u URL to access live channels via SIPTV.
However, the streaming links from your IPTV service might contain some copyrighted content, which can put you in legal trouble.
Therefore, I recommend exercising caution while using third-party apps by using a reliable VPN service. I use ExpressVPN.
How to Subscribe to Smart IPTV (SIPTV)
Smart IPTV is a paid service. They provide you with a 7-day trial period so that you can understand what you would be getting for your money. Smart IPTV charges a one-time fee of 5.49 euros.
Again, Smart IPTV does not provide channels. It is only used with IPTV services that provide channels. This is clearly mentioned on their activation page. Therefore, buy an IPTV subscription first before activating Smart IPTV.

Preparing FireStick to Sideload SIPTV
The Downloader on the Amazon App Store lets you download and install third-party APKs online. Install this app and then tweak the Install unknown apps settings for Downloader to allow sideloading via it.
For new FireStick users, I suggest referring to our dedicated guide on how to set up Downloader on Amazon FireStick. However, the quick steps are:
1. Head over to Find and select Search. Next, type Downloader in the search bar and select Downloader from the search results. After that, click Get/Download.
2. Highlight the Settings from Fire TV Home and open My Fire TV. Then, select the option that says Developer Options. Next, open Install unknown apps. By default, the Downloader’s permission is OFF. Turn it ON.
