GSE Smart IPTV is officially available on the Play Store and Apple App Store. However, on Amazon devices, such as your FireStick, it needs to be sideloaded. It is not hosted on the Amazon Store. Here is how you can do that on your FireStick device:
The first thing we are going to do is install the Downloader app. Downloader is available via Amazon Store.
1. Open the Search tool from the FireStick home screen.
2. Lookup for the app and install it (just follow the easy online instructions).
3. Now, go to the Settings on your FireStick device.
4. Navigate to the menu item called My Fire TV and open it.
5. Now, you need to access the menu item Developer Options in the next window.
6. On this window, click Install Unknown Apps.
7. Go ahead and turn ON the Downloader app. Now that you have allowed the third-party app installation, let’s get GSE Smart IPTV on Amazon FireStick.
8. After the Downloader has been installed, go ahead and open it. A couple of prompts should appear. You just need to get past them by choosing the appropriate onscreen options. When on the home screen of the Downloader app, click the URL textbox on the right side.
9. We now use this onscreen keyboard to enter the following path: https://www.gsesmartiptv.com OR, simply use the shortened version of this URL gsesmartiptv.com (as you see in the image below). Click GO.
Check the URL once to make sure you typed it right
10. Downloader app will now redirect you to its Browser section where the following webpage will load up. Scroll down a bit and click where it says Download for Amazon devices.
11. Downloader connects to the online file location and starts to download the GSE Smart IPTV APK on FireStick. This takes a couple of minutes.
12. When the APK file download has been completed, you see the following prompt. Go ahead and click Install.
13. Allow it a minute to install the GSE IPTV app on FireStick.
14. The App installed notification means the GSE Smart IPTV app has been installed. Clicking the option OPEN launches the app immediately. But, we are not doing that right now. Let’s go back to the Downloader app and delete the APK file we downloaded. It is a good practice that keep your limited FireStick storage clean. Click DONE.
15. You must see this prompt. Click Delete.
16. Confirm by clicking Delete again.
Note: You can delete the APK file later. Just open the Downloader app, click Files in the left menu, select the APK file, and press the 3-line menu button on the FireStick remote
Great! You now have GSE Smart IPTV on Amazon FireStick.
This part will demonstrate how to use GSE Smart IPTV on Fire TV. If you first need to know how to access the app on your device, go to the next section. When you run the GSE Smart IPTV app on FireStick the first time, the following Permission required prompt is displayed. Click OK
Click Allow on this prompt that appears at the bottom of the screen.
You must now see the following EULA prompt with the Terms of Use and some disclaimers. Go ahead and click AGREE.
Following is the main window of the GSE Smart TV app.
Let us explore the items under the category LOCAL in the left menu one by one.
We now look at the REMOTE category in the left menu.
The Remote Playlists option lets you import the M3U and/or JSON playlists from the web. If you have an IPTV subscription that supports one of these playlist formats, you will be required to enter the playlist URL. Most IPTV service providers that support playlists offer M3U links.
Click the Remote Playlists option and on the following window, click the + button on the top.
Click Add M3U URL (or ADD JSON URL) when prompted.
Enter the details on the following popup and click the Add button.
Since playlist URLs are long, they could be difficult to enter with your remote. Therefore, if you have Xtream-Codes API, use that instead.
Note: Due to the recent crackdown on Xtream Codes, the API option may not work.
Click Xtreme-Codes API in the left menu. Click the + icon on the top, on the next screen.
Enter the details in the popup and click Add.
You can use the EPG Program Guide option in the left menu to import the EPG either from the local file (in the device storage) or a URL. Most IPTV service providers that support the playlist option also offer the EPG link.
Click the EPG Program Guide option on the main screen of the GSE Smart IPTV app on FireStick.
On the next screen, click the + icon on the top.
Click Add Local EPG Source if you have an EPG file on the local storage. Click Add Remote EPG source to add a URL.
The GSE Smart IPTV FireStick app also lets you add an external video player. While the app has a built-in player, you can have a better playback experience with an external player like MX Player.
Click External Player in the left menu on the main screen of the GSE Smart IPTV app.
Click the + icon on the top.
Click Find on the popup.
The app will list all your installed media players. Click the one you want to use (say MX Player).
Click Add on the popup.
This section is for users who want to know how to access GSE Smart IPTV or any other installed app on FireStick. The apps you install may not necessarily appear on the FireStick home screen (if you have more than 20 apps). Here are some of the ways to access them:
From the home screen of FireStick, navigate to Settings / Applications / Manage Applications / GSE Smart TV (or any other app you want to access) / Launch application.
Press down the Home button on the FireStick remote for about 5 seconds. Click Apps when the prompt is displayed.
Scroll to the bottom where you will find the newly installed GSE Smart IPTV app on FireStick.
You may even move the app onto the home screen if you want quick access to it. Press the 3-line menu key on the remote and click the option Move on the popup window on your TV. You just need to drag the GSE Smart TV app to the first row.
