Responsible Use

Use GridStreamr only with content sources, playlists, metadata services, subtitle services, and AI providers you are authorized to use. You are responsible for complying with applicable terms, licenses, and local law.

Android TV and Google TV are the go-to big-screen platforms for IPTV. A great Android TV IPTV app needs to handle Xtream Codes reliably, display an EPG guide on a 10-foot UI, and sync your library from your phone without retyping credentials. GridStreamr checks all of those boxes, and adds Smart Collections.

What matters on the big screen

  • Xtream Codes support for live TV, VOD and series.
  • An EPG guide that's readable from across the room.
  • Easy sign-in, QR code pairing, not keyboard credential entry.
  • Smart Collections that sync from your phone.
  • TimeShift to catch up on live TV (Premium).
