Installing on Firestick, Google TV and Android TV

The quickest route on a TV device is the free Downloader app, which is available in both the Amazon Appstore and Google Play:

Install Downloader on your Firestick, Google TV or Android TV box.
In your device settings, allow Downloader to install unknown apps.
Open Downloader and enter shortcode 1463451.
Let the download finish, then choose Install.
Launch ZippyCast, sign in, and add your playlist profile.

Signing in without a keyboard. On the Android TV sign-in screen, choose QR code sign-in and scan the code with your phone's camera, then approve the TV on the page that opens. You can also enable the optional 6-digit TV code login in Settings on another device and enter that code using your TV remote.

System requirements

Web Player — any modern browser (Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox). Your provider's server URL must start with https://, because browsers block insecure requests from a secure page.
Windows — Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit.
Mac — macOS 11 Big Sur or later (Apple Silicon and Intel).
Android TV — Android 7.0 or later, including Fire OS devices.
Native apps also accept plain http:// provider URLs.

What you need before you start

ZippyCast is an empty-shell player. It ships with no channels, no movies, no series and no playlists, and we do not sell, host or resell any. To watch anything you supply your own legally obtained credentials from an IPTV provider of your choice, using either connection method:

Xtream Codes API — server URL, username and password.
Stalker Portal (MAG-style) — portal URL and MAC address, with a one-tap random MAC generator built in.

Free and Premium

Every download is free to use. The Free tier covers one playlist profile with Live TV, the EPG guide, Movies and Series, search, themes and watch history. Premium — a $16.99 one-time lifetime licence or $7.99 per year — adds Multiview, unlimited profiles and favourites, custom sorting and category hiding, third-party XMLTV guide sources, parental controls, programme reminders, local DVR recording, and watch-progress sync across devices. Premium unlocks player software features only; it is not a content subscription. See the FAQ for the full breakdown.
