How to choose

There is no wrong choice here, because your channels don’t depend on the app. Try the one that runs on more of your devices first, and keep the other as a backup.

What it takes to switch

Both install in a few minutes and take the same login, so trying one costs nothing but time. Smart IPTV and TiviMate charge a fee to the developer, separate from any IPTV plan. Moving between them later means signing in again and rebuilding favorites; your channels stay the same.
