Connecting the app to your plan

Purple Player doesn't ask for a username on the TV. Open it and it shows a MAC address, often with a device key. Go to the Purple Player website, enter that MAC, and add your playlist there, either as an M3U link or as Xtream details.

Restart Purple Player on the TV and the playlist appears. The app's own activation fee is paid to its developer, separately from your IPTV plan.

FAQ

Questions About Purple Player

Not covered here? Send it on WhatsApp and a person on the support desk will answer, any hour of the day.

Does Purple Player come with channels?

No. Purple Player is a player; it shows whatever your provider supplies. With an IPTV Strong 8K login it plays 32,000+ live channels plus 25,000+ series and 120,000+ movies on demand.

Why does Purple Player show a MAC address?

Purple Player identifies your device by its MAC address. The playlist or portal is linked to that MAC, which is why the app asks for no username on the TV itself.

Why won't Purple Player accept my login?

Usually a mismatched MAC address. Compare the MAC on screen with the one registered, character by character, then restart the app.

Can I use Purple Player on more than one device?

Yes. Install it on each device and sign in with the same details. A plan plays on one screen at a time as standard, and one order can cover up to 3 screens at once.

What if Purple Player disappears from the app store?

Apps do get pulled from stores from time to time. Your login works in other players, so install an alternative such as IBO STB and sign in again.
