Step-by-step setup
Open the Google Play Store
Find the Play Store on the home screen, or under Apps if the device runs Google TV. Check you are signed in to a Google account before you search for anything.
Install an IPTV player
Search TiViMate IPTV Player, or IPTV Smarters Pro, and install. Boxes running the phone build of Android list both as well. TiViMate is the one to pick if this is going on a television.
Add a playlist or Xtream login
Open the player you installed. TiViMate asks you to Add playlist and then offers Xtream Codes login; Smarters calls it Login with Xtream Codes API. Either way you enter the username, password and server URL from your Nartiel8k activation message.
Wait for channels and guide to load
The app now pulls the channel list and the programme data. Budget one to two minutes on a first run. If it asks you to name the playlist, anything memorable will do.
Organise your channels
Switch off the categories you will never watch, pin the ones you will, and set your language. TiViMate keeps this under Settings, then Playlists. Ten minutes spent here is what makes a list this size genuinely quick to move around.
Common errors and fixes
Play Store does not show the app
Older boxes sometimes run the phone edition of Android, which hides TV apps. Sideload the APK with Downloader instead, following the same sequence as the Firestick guide.
EPG is empty
Let the first update finish before judging it, then trigger Update EPG from the app settings. Your Nartiel8k login carries the guide source with it, though support can send the URL separately if a player insists on one.

Android TV IPTV FAQ
What is the best Android TV box for IPTV?
The Nvidia Shield TV is the fastest and handles 4K HDR streams with ease. Chromecast with Google TV 4K is the best budget choice. Generic boxes work but choose one with at least 2 GB RAM and Android 9 or newer.
Does Nartiel8k work on Chromecast with Google TV?
Yes. Chromecast with Google TV is Android TV underneath, so TiViMate and IPTV Smarters Pro both come straight from the Play Store and take your Nartiel8k credentials exactly as described above.
