Apple doesn't let us put a custom app on Apple TV — but a public app from the App Store called IPTV Smarters Pro plays our channels just fine. You'll plug in a portal URL plus your username and password and you're done.
Press the Home button on your Apple TV remote.
Open the App Store.
Use the search bar (top right). Search for IPTV Smarters Pro.
Tap Get (it's free). Sign in with your Apple ID if asked.
Tap Open when it finishes.
IPTV Smarters opens with three login choices.
Pick the Login with Xtream Codes API option (sometimes labeled "Add User" on newer versions). NOT M3U.
You'll see three fields. Fill them in:
Tap Add User / Login.
IPTV Smarters fetches your channel list — first time can take 30-60 seconds.
If it says "Authorization failed" → double-check the username/password for typos, especially capital letters.
If it says "Could not connect" → try the backup portal instead:
You'll see a menu — Live TV, Movies, Series.
Pick Live TV. Browse by category (Sports, News, Entertainment, etc.).
Click a channel to start. Use the touchpad to swipe between channels.
