HILO PLAYERHILO PLAYERHilo Player plays the playlist from your own provider on your TV and phone: live TV with a programme guide, movies, series and catch up, in a fast, simple interface.
Hilo Player does not include any channels or content.
We do not sell IPTV subscriptions, channels or playlists, and the app contains no content of its own. You bring the playlist from your own provider, and Hilo Player plays it.
Every installation gets its own Device ID and Device Key, so there is no account to create.
On first launch the app shows your Device ID (a MAC-style address) and a 6-digit Device Key.
On Manage Playlists enter the Device ID and Device Key, then add the M3U link or the Xtream login you received from your provider.
Choose Refresh in the app. Your categories, channels, movies and series appear and you can start watching.
Open the account icon at the top of the home screen. The window shows everything you need on this website.
