Hisense sells TVs with three different systems, and the way you watch IPTV depends on which one you have. Hisense TVs running Android TV or Google TV are the easiest: you install a normal IPTV app from Google Play. TVs running VIDAA, Hisense’s own system, have a smaller app store, so it depends on the model. Here is how to tell which you have and what to do.
Step 1: Find out which system your Hisense runs
- Google TV or Android TV: the home screen shows a Google Play Store app, and the remote often has a Google Assistant button.
- VIDAA: the home screen has a row of apps with an App Store or VIDAA Store tile, and no Google Play. Most Hisense TVs sold in Europe and many in the US use VIDAA.
- Roku TV: some Hisense models in the US are Roku TVs. If you see the Roku home screen, follow our Roku guide instead.
Hisense with Google TV or Android TV
- Open the Google Play Store on the TV.
- Search for IPTV Smarters Pro and install it. TiviMate and IBO Player Pro also work if you prefer them.
- Open the app, choose Login with Xtream Codes API and enter the username, password and server address from your IPTVSup email.
- Wait a moment while the channels and TV guide load, and you are done.
Hisense with VIDAA
VIDAA’s app store is curated, and which IPTV players it offers varies by country and model year. Try this order:
- Open the VIDAA App Store and search for IBO Player Pro. If it is there, install it. IBO Player shows a device ID and key on screen; you add your IPTVSup login to that device on the IBO Player website (we can do this part for you on WhatsApp). The app has a free trial and then a small one-time fee charged by its developer.
- If IBO Player is not listed, search the store for IPTV and send us a photo of what comes up. We will tell you which one works with our service.
- If the store has no IPTV player at all, plug an Amazon Firestick or Google TV stick into a free HDMI port. This is the most reliable option on VIDAA and gives you the full app with a TV guide. Our Firestick guide covers the setup.
Mirroring from an Android phone also works on many VIDAA TVs as a quick test, but your phone has to stay on and nearby, so it is not ideal for daily use.
Tips for a smooth picture on Hisense TVs
- Use a network cable if the TV is near your router. It is the single best fix for buffering.
- For 4K channels you need around 25 Mbps; for HD, around 10 Mbps.
- If the app feels slow on an older Hisense, a streaming stick usually runs faster than the TV’s built-in processor.
Not sure about your device?
Send us your device model on WhatsApp and we will tell you exactly which app or method to use before you buy. You can also ask for a short free trial and test it on your own TV first. Plans start at $14.99 for one month, or $5 a month on the 12-month plan, and your login arrives by email within 5 to 10 minutes.
