Setup guide

Bob Pro is a paid app; its fee goes to the developer, separately from your IPTV plan. Resolution depends on the screen: HD is plenty on a phone or laptop, and 4K is worth it only on a 4K monitor or TV. Choose a plan, message us on WhatsApp, and expect your login details in about a minute.

  • Choose a plan on the pricing page and order on WhatsApp; your server URL, username and password arrive in about 60 seconds.
  • Open the Play Store on the Chromebook and install Bob Pro; it runs as an Android app in its own window.
  • Choose the Xtream Codes login in Bob Pro and enter the server URL (including http:// and the port), the username and the password exactly as sent.
  • Give the first sync a couple of minutes, then hide the groups you never use and favorite the rest.

The first time you open it

Expect a short wait on first sign-in while Bob Pro downloads the playlist and guide. Then you'll see channel groups by category and country; open one, highlight a channel, and the guide shows what's on now and next.
