If you are using another IPTV player such as TiviMate, you can also watch IPTV on Roku by casting to your Roku device. IPTV Smarters is one of the best IPTV Players, compatible with hundreds of IPTV services that use a server URL.

Anyways, let’s get into how to install IPTV on Roku. I divided the instructions into four parts to make them easier to follow:

  • Part 1: Enabling developer options on Roku
  • Part 2: Adding the IPTV Smarters channel
  • Part 3: Downloading the IPTV Smarters package on your computer
  • Part 4: Installing IPTV Smarters on Roku

Don’t worry, the process is easier than it sounds. Let’s begin.
