Everything you need to know about Easy IP TV — installation, M3U playlists, EPG, multiple TVs, pricing, and how to tell us apart from look-alike services.
What is Easy IP TV?
Easy IP TV is a premium IPTV player for Smart TVs. It plays M3U playlists on LG webOS, Samsung Tizen and Android TV / Google TV. Set up in under 2 minutes — install the app, link your TV with a code, paste your M3U URL, and you're watching. We do not provide, host, or distribute any content — you bring your own playlist from your IPTV provider.
How do I set up Easy IP TV?
1) Install Easy IP TV from your TV's app store (LG Content Store, Samsung Apps, or Google Play). 2) Open the app — a 6-digit code appears on screen. 3) Visit easy-ip.tv on your phone or computer and enter the code. 4) Paste your M3U playlist URL in the dashboard. Your playlist will be processed and channels will appear on your TV — small playlists load quickly, larger ones may take a few minutes.
Which Smart TVs does Easy IP TV work on?
Easy IP TV works on LG webOS (2018 and newer), Samsung Tizen (2018 and newer), and Android TV / Google TV. It's one of the few IPTV players available on all three major Smart TV platforms. Install it directly from your TV's built-in app store — no sideloading or USB installation needed.

What is an M3U playlist and how do I get one?
An M3U playlist is a text file containing links to media streams. Your IPTV provider gives you an M3U URL (a web address starting with http:// or https://) that you paste into Easy IP TV. The app downloads the playlist and organizes your channels automatically — including channel names, logos, and group categories. Easy IP TV supports both M3U and M3U8 formats.
Does Easy IP TV support EPG (Electronic Program Guide)?
Yes. Easy IP TV supports XMLTV-format EPG, which shows current and upcoming programs for each channel. Many M3U playlists include EPG data automatically. You can also add a separate EPG URL in your dashboard. The program guide is displayed directly in the player so you always know what's on.
What internet speed do I need for IPTV?
For smooth streaming: 5 Mbps for SD channels, 10 Mbps for HD (720p/1080p), and 25 Mbps for 4K/Ultra HD content. These are per-stream requirements — if multiple TVs stream simultaneously, multiply accordingly. We recommend at least 15 Mbps for a reliable HD experience. A wired Ethernet connection to your TV is always more stable than Wi-Fi.
How do I fix IPTV buffering or freezing?
Common fixes: 1) Use a wired Ethernet connection instead of Wi-Fi — this is the #1 improvement. 2) Check your internet speed (at least 10 Mbps for HD). 3) Try changing your DNS to Google (8.8.8.8) or Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) in your router settings. 4) Close other apps on your TV to free up memory. 5) If your ISP throttles streaming, a VPN may help. Note: buffering is usually caused by the stream source, not the player app.
Why is my EPG (program guide) not showing?
Common causes: 1) Your M3U playlist may not include EPG data — ask your IPTV provider for an EPG/XMLTV URL and add it in your dashboard. 2) Channel IDs in the playlist may not match the EPG source — this is a provider-side issue. 3) Large EPG files can take a few minutes to load after setup. 4) Try refreshing your playlist from the dashboard. Easy IP TV auto-detects EPG from most playlists, but a separate EPG URL often gives better results.
Can I use Easy IP TV on multiple TVs?
Yes. The Basic plan supports 1 TV, and the Pro plan supports up to 3 TVs linked to the same account. All TVs share the same playlist — set it up once in your dashboard and all linked TVs get the same channels. You can link and unlink TVs at any time from your dashboard. Note: some IPTV providers limit the number of simultaneous streams per subscription — check with your provider if you plan to watch on multiple TVs at the same time.
Does Easy IP TV provide TV channels or content?
No. Easy IP TV is a player only — similar to VLC or any video player. We do not provide, host, or distribute any content, playlists, or channel subscriptions. You add your own M3U playlist from your IPTV provider. Users are solely responsible for the content they access and its legality in their jurisdiction.
Are you the same as 'Easy IPTV', 'Easy IP', or other similar names?
No — we are a separate, independent company. Several IPTV content reseller services online use names that look similar to ours, including 'Easy IPTV' (easy-iptv.com, easy-iptv.online), 'Easy IP' (easy-ip.online), and others. Those are different businesses that sell channel subscriptions, and we have no affiliation with any of them. Easy IP TV is a player app only — we do not sell, host, or distribute any TV content. Our domain is easy-ip.tv (with a hyphen and the .tv extension), we are operated by HD SofT Oy in Finland (business ID 3318598-8), and you can verify us on our official Trustpilot profile at trustpilot.com/review/easy-ip.tv.
Is Easy IP TV free?
Easy IP TV offers a free 24-hour trial so you can test it with your playlist — no credit card required. After the trial, choose the Basic plan (1 TV) or Pro plan (up to 3 TVs with automatic playlist refresh). Pricing is adjusted for different regions — see the pricing section above or the billing page for prices in your local currency.
Is my playlist data secure?
Yes. Your M3U and EPG URLs are stored securely on our servers and transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Video streams go directly from the stream source to your TV — we never relay, proxy, or store any stream content. We do not access, monitor, or share your playlist data with third parties. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Go to easy-ip.tv, sign in, and navigate to Billing. You can cancel your subscription at any time — cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period, so you keep access until then. You can also manage your subscription through the Stripe customer portal. No hidden fees, no cancellation penalties.
Does Easy IP TV work with a VPN?
Easy IP TV works normally whether you use a VPN or not — the app itself does not block or require VPN connections. If you use a VPN, make sure it's configured at the router or device level so your TV's traffic goes through it. Note that some IPTV providers may have their own VPN policies. Stream performance depends on your VPN speed and server location.
Is using Easy IP TV legal?
Easy IP TV is a media player — like VLC or any video player. The app itself is completely legal. We do not provide, host, or distribute any content. Users are responsible for ensuring that the content they access through their own playlists complies with applicable laws in their jurisdiction.
Can I download an IPTV app on my Smart TV?
Yes! You can download IPTV player apps directly from your Smart TV's built-in app store — no USB drives, sideloading, or technical setup required. Easy IP TV is available on Samsung TV (Samsung Apps), LG TV (LG Content Store), and Android TV / Google TV (Google Play Store). Just search for "Easy IP TV", install it, and start watching in under 2 minutes.
