How to Set Up IPTV on iPhone & iPad
1
Download GSE Smart IPTV
Search for "GSE Smart IPTV" in the App Store and install it. It's free.
2
Open the App
Tap "Remote Playlists" in the left menu.
3
Add M3U URL
Tap the + button and select "Add M3U URL". Enter your NovaStream M3U URL and give it a name.
4
Or Use Xtream Codes
Tap "Xtream-Codes API" instead, and enter your server address, username, and password exactly as sent by NovaStream.
5
Start Watching
Your channel list loads automatically. Use the EPG to see what's on and set reminders for live sports.
Pro Tip: Use AirPlay to cast from your iPhone to an Apple TV or AirPlay-compatible TV. This is the easiest way to watch IPTV on a big screen without installing anything on the TV directly.
Get Your NovaStream Credentials
Your M3U link and Xtream Codes credentials are sent via WhatsApp within 3 minutes. No ticket queue, no onboarding call — just your login details, ready to paste into your IPTV player.
