Frequently Asked Questions
Is TiviMate free?
The app is free; Premium (recording, multiple playlists, favourites sync) is a small annual fee paid to the TiviMate developer — separate from your 5GOTT subscription.
TiviMate vs IPTV Smarters Pro — which is better?
Smarters is simpler for beginners; TiviMate wins on EPG design, speed and recording. Both work perfectly with 5GOTT — compare in our apps hub.
