Perfect Player IPTV: Forewords

Perfect Player is not an IPTV provider as it cannot provide content on its own, but it is an IPTV management application or an IPTV player. It enables you to stream your favorite channels and use your IPTV subscriptions.

It’s suitable for those who do not want to use Kodi to stream IPTV. It works smoothly with IPTV providers, including Apollo Group TV, Dynasty IPTV, and more.

This immersive tutorial will guide you through the installation process and how you can use Perfect Player IPTV on Firestick.
This method also works on Fire TV Stick Lite, Fire TV Cube, and Firestick 4K. We’ll also inform you of the best methods for installing Perfect Player IPTV on Android phones and tablets and Smart Android TVs. Without any further delay, let’s learn how to install Perfect Player IPTV on Firestick.

EPG URL and M3U URL

It is essential to know which URLs to use with Perfect Player IPTV. You must have both EPG URL and M3U URL in your current IPTV subscription.

IPTV providers usually provide the URLs after you’ve purchased an IPTV plan. In case you don’t have the URL, check your email or contact your provider if you haven’t received an email.

You will have to enter the URLs by using the app’s settings panel to configure them. Such URLs are generally very long, so mistakes become highly probable when typing in these web addresses.

Installing Perfect Player IPTV App on Firestick

The app is not available on Amazon App Store. We will sideload it from a third-party source – Downloader. We’ll show you the steps to install the Downloader App from the store in the following.

One of the steps will entail enabling ‘Install Unknown Apps’ on your Firestick, which will permit Downloader to sideload the Perfect Player IPTV App on your Firestick.

These are the 3 parts of the process:

Usually, you’ll receive the link in the provided email ID along with your account information.

Always Use A VPN while Using Perfect Player IPTV

Everything you stream on Perfect Player IPTV is visible to your ISP and Government.

When you access content, some of it might be copyrighted, and you can’t legally see it if you haven’t subscribed to that particular channel. Also, some channels might not be available to your region.

A VPN helps you hide your identity and lets you browse and stream anonymously. All your internet traffic uses an encrypted tunnel that your ISP or Government cannot access.

It also disables hackers to access your private information. You must always use a VPN while connected to a public network.

As mentioned before, some channels are not available in your region. Use a VPN to overcome geographical restrictions. You’ll be able to access a wide variety of unrestricted content right at your home.

A VPN simply helps you connect to a different server and fools everyone that you’re accessing the channel from another country.

Download and Install ExpressVPN on your Firestick

One of the best VPNs on the market is ExpressVPN. We have tested its capabilities in different environments, and it always provided a secure connection, good and stable speeds, and an unmatching user experience. That’s why, we will guide through the installation process of ExpressVPN in the following:

Step 1: Click on the search option and enter ExpressVPN in your search box. Select when it appears in the search results.

Step 3: Give it a few minutes, then after it has finished installing, click ‘Open.

We recommend you to get ExpressVPN as it is the most secure and fastest VPN on Firestick or any other device. It’s compatible with most streaming devices.

Not only that, it offers the most user-friendly interface. Plus, with ExpressVPN, you don’t need to worry about your money going to waste. Avail yourself of the money-back insurance and try it out first for some time.
