Setup guide

IBO Player 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. Ordering happens on WhatsApp, and the login usually lands in the chat within about 60 seconds.

Installing IBO Player

IBO Player on Android Phone: Installing IBO Player

  • Pick a plan length, send the order on WhatsApp, and keep the reply open: it holds the server URL, username and password.
  • Install IBO Player from Google Play on your Android phone.
  • Find the MAC address in IBO Player's profile settings and send it to us on WhatsApp so it can be registered.
  • Paste the portal URL we reply with into IBO Player's portal settings and restart the app.
  • Give the first sync a couple of minutes, then hide the groups you never use and favorite the rest.

What you'll see on first launch

IBO Player loads the portal on start. Expect a menu with live TV, video on demand and settings tiles, much like a MAG box. The channel list arrives first, the guide shortly after.

  • Lock rotation to landscape so the picture doesn't flip when you shift on the couch.
  • Cast or mirror to a TV when friends come over.
  • Stay on Wi-Fi for long sessions: HD uses roughly 3 GB an hour, 4K far more.
  • Portal URL: leave it exactly as sent, including any trailing /c/.

Troubleshooting

IBO Player on Android Phone: Troubleshooting

  • "Portal not found" or a blank screen: check the URL, including any trailing /c/, and confirm the MAC was registered.
  • Buffering on sports only: run a speed test on the Android phone. Below about 25 Mbps, use the HD version of the channel.
  • IBO Player closes on its own: clear its cache, restart the Android phone, and reinstall if it keeps happening.
  • Channels but no guide: refresh the EPG in IBO Player's settings, or give it a few minutes after the first sign-in.
