    is it free :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    The OP lists "Essential Apps:" then "Sub required:" which lists apps that are essential but need a sub.

    You can get a free trial for 30 days if you use promo code "SHUTIN", which should see you through Halloween and then you can cancel after.

    But it's payable with spare Three phone credit, so it's free for me in that sense :D

    Pretty sure that's the same player my IPTV crowd base there service on. Easy to navigate and fairly reliable

    I paid for the full version (dont mind paying for good development) and you can edit channel list, bouquets, favorites etc

    also love the multi/split screen option also

    Would appreciate a DM on the best setup also if someone would be kind enough to assist.

    Did anyone actually get a PM for the setup?

    no

    Lads just google iptv suppliers and contact them, they’ll give you any instructions or help you need, it’s basically just installing an app through downloader and away you go

    Some suppliers recommend using them but the majority don’t. I find they slow down your internet connection too much anyway to be honest unless you pay for a decent vpn. A lot of the free ones are useless

    iptv providers have told uk customers the need a vpn because of the crack that went on 2 weeks ago with premier league clampdown,that might effect ireland to?.

    Yeah that affected Ireland as well, think they managed to get a court order last year that let them block certain ips but one supplier I know of have just bought up a load of American ips to use that aren’t subject to the block and are back up and running now with no vpn needed

    Excuse my technology thickness, but what is the best firestick to buy on Amazon at the moment especially as they have prime deals on?


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,824 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    The 4k version but they are currently sold out. There is a waiting list though which will probably populate when more become available.
