Conclusion

It’s pretty easy to set up IPTV on IPTV Smarters Pro. Still, a lot of the functionality is locked into the premium paid version. All in all, I would recommend the player, mainly due to the multi-screen support. 

However, if you’re coming from an open-source player such as Kodi, you may find the whole “Premium Version” thing a bit tiring.
