Smart TVs have become the primary screen for IPTV viewing. The challenge is that different TV brands run different operating systems — Samsung uses Tizen, LG uses WebOS, and most other brands use Android TV. Here are the top 5 IPTV apps that work across these platforms in 2026.
1. IPTV Smarters Pro
IPTV Smarters Pro is available on Samsung Smart Hub, LG Content Store, and Android TV via the Play Store. It is the most universally compatible IPTV player for Smart TVs.

2. Smart IPTV (SIPTV)
