Features of IPTV Smarters Pro: The Complete 2026 Breakdown

You've probably heard that Smarters IPTV Pro is one of the most capable IPTV players available for iOS and Android. But what exactly can it do? This guide walks through every major feature — what it is, why it matters, and how to use it.

Whether you're evaluating the app or already using it and want to unlock more, this is your complete reference to the features of IPTV Smarters Pro.

Playlist & Login Support

M3U and M3U8 Playlists

The foundation of any IPTV player. Smarters IPTV Pro accepts standard M3U/M3U8 playlist URLs — paste your link and your channels load instantly.

Xtream Codes API

If your provider gives you a username, password, and server URL instead of a playlist file, that's Xtream Codes — and it's fully supported. This login method also enables richer metadata like posters and descriptions. See our URL setup guide for the details.

Multiple Playlists

Unlike many competitors that charge for this, Smarters IPTV Pro lets you add multiple playlists for free and switch between them. Perfect if you have separate providers for sports and international content.

Live TV Features

Electronic Program Guide (EPG)

The EPG shows what's playing now and next on every channel — no more blind channel surfing. If your playlist includes EPG data (XMLTV), it loads automatically; you can also add an EPG URL manually.

Favorites

Mark any channel as a favorite and it appears in a dedicated list. With playlists that often contain thousands of channels, this is the single biggest quality-of-life feature. More tips like this in our hidden features guide.

Channel Search

Instant search across your entire playlist. Type a few letters and jump straight to the channel — essential for large playlists.

Catch-Up TV

If your provider supports catch-up, you can watch programs that already aired — usually up to several days back. Look for the catch-up icon on supported channels.

Video on Demand (VOD) & Series

Beyond live TV, Smarters IPTV Pro organizes your provider's movie and series libraries into a browsable, Netflix-style layout:

• Movies: Sorted by category with posters and descriptions (via Xtream Codes)
• Series: Organized by season and episode, with resume playback
• Continue watching: Pick up where you left off

Playback Quality

HD and 4K Streaming

The player handles everything from SD channels to 4K streams, provided your playlist and connection support them. Hardware decoding keeps playback smooth and battery-friendly.

Adaptive Buffering

Smart buffering minimizes interruptions on slower connections. If you still see stuttering, the cause is usually upstream — our buffering fix guide explains how to diagnose it.

Subtitle & Audio Track Selection

Multi-language streams let you switch audio tracks and enable subtitles right from the player controls.

Picture-in-Picture

Keep watching in a floating window while you use other apps — supported on both iOS and Android.

Multi-Device & Casting

• iPhone & iPad: Native support with layouts optimized for each screen size
• Android phones & tablets: Full feature parity with the iOS version
• AirPlay: Stream from your iPhone to Apple TV or AirPlay-compatible TVs
• Chromecast: Cast from Android or iOS to any Chromecast device
