Hi everyone, I'm looking for an IPTV player for my family. There are four of us, and everyone has their own channel lists and recording needs. I currently use TiviMate, but profile management is cumbersome. Which player offers real profiles with separate EPGs and favorites? It needs to run on Fire TV and Android TV. Thanks for sharing your experiences!

I searched for a long time and settled on OTT Navigator. It supports multiple profiles with their own EPGs and favorites. Everyone in the family gets their own access. It runs reliably on Fire TV, even with large playlists. Setup is a little awkward, but once it's done, it works very well.

I've used TiviMate with the Multi-User plugin, but it isn't official and is sometimes buggy. For genuine profiles, I would recommend IPTV Smarters Pro. It has built-in profile management and parental controls. However, its EPG isn't as attractive as TiviMate's.

I switched from TiviMate to XCIPTV. It supports multiple profiles by default, and everyone can organize their own channels. The EPG loads quickly, even with 5000+ channels. The only downside is that recording is separate for each profile, which can be annoying. It runs perfectly on Fire TV 4K.

I've tested all the players mentioned. For families, I would choose OTT Navigator because it has the best profile management. You can even set passwords for individual profiles. TiviMate is simpler, but without a plugin it doesn't offer genuine multi-profile support. XCIPTV is fine, but the interface looks dated. Try the trial versions.
